Application

Before you can use the TNCguide, you need to

download the help files from the HEIDENHAIN

home page (see "Downloading current help files",

page 160).

The

TNCguide

context-sensitive help system includes the user

documentation in HTML format. The TNCguide is called with the

HELP key, and the TNC often immediately displays the information

specific to the condition from which the help was called (context-

sensitive call). Even if you are editing an NC block and press

the HELP key, you are usually brought to the exact place in the

documentation that describes the corresponding function.

The TNC always tries to start the TNCguide

in the language that you have selected as the

conversational language on your TNC. If the files with

this language are not yet available on your TNC, it

automatically opens the English version.

The following user documentation is available in TNCguide:

Conversational Programming User’s Manual

(BHBKlartext.chm)

DIN/ISO User’s Manual

(BHBIso.chm)

User’s Manual for Cycle Programming (

BHBtchprobe.chm

)

List of All Error Messages

(errors.chm)

In addition, the

main.chm

"book" file is available, with the contents

of all existing .chm files.

As an option, your machine tool builder can embed

machine-specific documentation in the

TNCguide

.

These documents then appear as a separate book in

the

main.chm

file.
