When you write a part program on the TNC, you must first enter a file

name. The TNC saves the program to the hard disk as a file with the

same name. The TNC can also save texts and tables as files.

The TNC provides a special file management window in which you can

easily find and manage your files. Here you can call, copy, rename and

erase files.

You can manage nearly any number of files with the TNC, at least

25 GB (dual-processor version: 13 GB).

When you store programs, tables and texts as files, the TNC adds an

extension to the file name, separated by a point. This extension

indicates the file type.

File names should not exceed 25 characters, otherwise the TNC

cannot display the entire file name. The characters * \ / " ? < > .

are not permitted in file names.
