Displaying and editing text files
To open and edit text files (ASCII files, e.g. with the extension txt ),
use the internal text editor. Proceed as follows:
Calling the File Manager
Select the drive and the directory in which the text
file is saved
Move the highlight to the text file
Press the ENT key: The TNC opens the text file
with the internal text editor
Alternatively, you can also open the ASCII files using
the
Leafpad
additional tool. The shortcuts you are
familiar with from Windows, which you can use to
edit texts quickly (CTRL+C, CTRL+V,...), are available
within Leafpad .
With the key combination ALT+TAB you can always
return to the TNC user interface while leaving the
text file open. Alternatively, you can also click the
corresponding symbol in the task bar to switch back
to the TNC interface.
To open Leafpad , proceed as follows:
Use the mouse to select the Menu HEIDENHAIN icon from the
task bar
Select the
Tools and Leafpad menu items in the pull-down
menu
To exit Leafpad , proceed as follows:
Use the mouse to select the File menu item
Select the menu item Quit: The TNC returns to the file manager
