Your machine tool builder can also define a tool-
change macro for the

Test Run operating mode.

This macro will simulate the exact behavior of the

machine. Refer to your machine manual.

Execute test run

If the central tool file is active, a tool table must be

active (status S) to conduct a test run. Select a tool
table via the file manager in the

Test Run mode of

operation.
For turning tools you can select a turning tool table

with the file extension .trn, compatible with the

selected tool table. This means that the turning tools

must match in both selected tables.

You can select any preset table (status S) for the test run.
After

RESET + START, line 0 of the temporarily loaded preset

table automatically displays the momentarily active datum from

Preset.pr (execution). Line 0 is selected when starting the test run

until you define another datum in the NC program. All datums from

lines > 0 are read by the control from the selected preset table of

the test run.
With the

BLANK IN WORK SPACE function, you activate a

workspace monitor for the test run, see "Showing the workpiece

blank in the working space ", page 558.

Select the

Test Run operating mode

Call the file manager with the

PGM MGT key and

select the file you wish to test

The TNC then displays the following soft keys:
