Tool usage file
The tool usage test function must be enabled by
your machine manufacturer. Refer to your machine
manual.
With the MOD function
Tool-usage file
you can select whether the
TNC never, once, or always creates a tool usage file.
Generate a tool usage file:
In the MOD menu select the

Select kinematics
The
Kinematics selection
function must be enabled
and adapted by the machine manufacturer.
Refer to your machine manual.
You can use this function to test programs whose kinematics
does not match the active machine kinematics. If your machine
manufacturer saved different kinematic configurations in your
machine, you can activate one of these kinematics configurations
with the MOD function. When you select a kinematics model for
the test run this does not affect machine kinematics.
Danger of collision!
When you switch the kinematics model for machine
operation, the TNC implements all of subsequent
movements with modified kinematics.
Ensure that you have selected the correct kinematics
in the test run for checking your workpiece.
