1.2 Control model, software and features
This manual describes functions for setting up the machine as well
as for testing and running your NC programs. These functions are
provided by controls as of the following NC software numbers.
HEIDENHAIN has simplified the version schema, starting
with NC software version 16:
The publication period determines the
version number.
All control models of a publication period have the
same version number.
The version number of the programming stations
corresponds to the version number of the
NC software.
Control model NC software number
TNC 620 817600-16
TNC 620 E 817601-16
TNC 620 Programming Station 817605-16
The suffix E indicates the export version of the control. The following
software option is unavailable or only available to a limited extent in
the export version:
Advanced Function Set 2 (option 9) limited to four-axis
interpolation
The machine manufacturer adapts the usable features of the control
to his machine by setting appropriate machine parameters. Some of
the functions described in this manual may therefore not be among
the features provided by the control on your machine tool.
Control functions that may not be available on your machine include:
Tool measurement with the TT
In order to find out about the actual features of your machine, please
contact the machine manufacturer.
Many machine manufacturers, as well as HEIDENHAIN, offer
programming courses for the HEIDENHAIN controls. Participation
in one of these courses is recommended to familiarize yourself
thoroughly with the control's functions.
