IMPORT

TABLE function. Refer to your machine manual.

use the tool table. On the TNC 620, you can adapt the tool table
conveniently with the

IMPORT TABLE function. The TNC converts

the contents of the imported tool table to a format valid for the

TNC 620 and saves the changes to the selected file. Follow this

procedure:

Save the tool table of the iTNC 530 to the

TNC:\table directory
