During the import, a comma is converted to a period.
The control overwrites the active tool table when
importing an external table with the same name. To
prevent data loss, back up the original tool table before
you start the import!
The procedure for copying tool tables using the
file manager is described in the section on file
management.
Further information:
When iTNC 530 tool tables are imported, all defined tool
types are transferred as well. Tool types not present are
imported as type Undefined. Check the tool table after
the import.
