Creating a new program/file management

Press the PGM MGT key: The TNC opens the file
management. The file management of the TNC is
arranged much like the file management on a PC
with the Windows Explorer. The file management
enables you to manipulate data on the TNC hard
disk
Use the arrow keys to select the folder in which
you want to open the new file
Enter any desired file name with the extension .H:
The TNC then automatically opens a program and
asks for the unit of measure for the new program
Selecting the unit of measure: Press the MM or
INCH soft key
The TNC automatically generates the first and last blocks of the
program. Afterwards you can no longer change these blocks.
