Displaying Image Files

the TNC, proceed as follows:
U Call the file manager
U Select the directory in which the image file is saved
U Move the highlight to the image file
U Press ENT: The TNC opens the image file in its own
application using the ristretto additional tool
With the key combination ALT+TAB you can always return to the TNC
user interface while leaving the image file open. Alternatively, you can
also click the corresponding symbol in the task bar to switch back to
the TNC interface.
More information on how to use the ristretto function is provided
under Help.
To exit ristretto, proceed as follows:
U Use the mouse to select the File menu item.
U Select the menu item Quit : The TNC returns to the file manager.
Data transfer to or from an external data
medium
Call the file manager.
Select the screen layout for data transfer: press the
WINDOW soft key. In the left half of the screen the
TNC shows all files in the current directory. In the
right half of the screen it shows all files saved in the
root directory (TNC:\ ).
Before you can transfer data to an external data medium,
you must set up the data interface (see “Setting the Data
Interfaces” on page 543).
Depending on the data transfer software you use,
problems can occur occasionally when you transmit data
over a serial interface. They can be overcome by repeating
the transmission.
