Overwriting tool data from an external PC

The HEIDENHAIN data transfer software TNCremo provides an

especially convenient way to use an external PC to overwrite tool

Further Information:

"Software for data transfer", page 607

This application case occurs e.g. if you wish to determine tool data

on an external tool presetter and then transfer this to the TNC.

Requirements

In addition to option 18 HEIDENHAIN DNC, TNCremo (from version

3.1) is required with TNCremoPlus functions.

Copy the tool table TOOL.T to the TNC, for example to TST.T

Start the data transfer software TNCremo on the PC

Establish a connection with the TNC

Transfer the copied tool table TST.T to the PC

Use any text editor to reduce TST.T to the lines and columns

to be changed (see figure). Make sure that the header is not

changed and the data is always flush in the column. The tool

number (column T) need not be consecutive

In TNCremo, select the menu item <Extras> and <TNCcmd>:

This starts TNCcmd.

To transfer TST.T to the TNC, enter the following command and

confirm with the return key (see figure): put tst.t tool.t /m

During transfer, only the tool data defined in the

subfile (e.g. TST.T) is overwritten. All other tool data

of the table TOOL.T remains unchanged.

The procedure for copying tool tables using the TNC

file manager is described in the file management.
