The CSV file to be imported must be stored in the
TNC:\system\tooltab
directory.
If you import the tool data of existing tools (whose
numbers are in the pocket table) the control issues
an error message. You can then decide whether to
skip this data record or insert a new tool. The control
inserts a new tool into the first empty line of the tool
table.
If the imported CSV file contains unknown table
columns, the control displays a message during
import. An additional note informs you that the data
will not be transferred.
Make sure that the column designations have been
specified correctly.
