  • Page 10: 1.1 Introduction

    Some powerful functions are not available as a standard feature on all TNC controls, but must be enabled via a keyword. All functions are freely available without surcharge on the TNC 320, TNC 620 and TNC 640 programming stations. The free demo version, however, only permits storage of programs up to a certain program length (see "Special features of the demo version"...

    1.2 Compatibility The programming modes provide the same features as a TNC 320, TNC 620 or TNC 640 connected to a machine tool (NC software: see "TNC model, software and features", page 3). You create programs:  in HEIDENHAIN conversational format or according to ISO, ...

  • Page 12: Downward Compatibility

    Downward compatibility The performance range of the TNC 320, TNC 620 or TNC 640 programming station is exactly the same as the performance range of the respective TNC software (see "TNC model, software and features", page 3). If your TNC control is running this software, then you can download all programs created with the programming station directly to the control.
