1202 HEIDENHAIN Technical Manual iTNC 530 HSCI
Including an
OEM-specific online
help file
Once you have created a valid *.chm file, proceed as follows in order to display
your own OEM-specific help file in the HEIDENHAIN TNCguide:
You may need to rename your *.chm file. You must use one of the names
reserved by HEIDENHAIN for OEM help files.
e.g. OEM1.CHM
Use TNCremo to transfer the help file to the control.
Store your help file in the appropriate language directory: TNC:\tncguide\de,
TNC:\tncguide\en, etc. If you have created only an English help file,
HEIDENHAIN recommends placing it in the other language directories as
well.
Press the HELP key to call the TNCguide. Your help file should now
automatically be included in the TNCguide directory tree.
National languages CHM files will not be available for all possible TNC dialog languages at the time
the NC software is released. We are planning on delivering the German and
English languages with the software, and the CHM files in other languages will
be made available for free downloading (for unregistered users as well, of
course) from HESIS-Web including Filebase. The user then simply downloads
the appropriate file(s) for the respective language(s), and stores them in the
directory defined by us on the TNC hard disk: TNC:\tncguide\de or the
appropriate language subdirectory.
A readme.a file is located in the respective language directories on the TNC
hard disk under TNC:\tncguide\. This file describes the procedure for loading
the CHM files from HESIS-Web including Filebase.
Online help files
and TNCremoNT
The online help files (with file name extension .chm) can be managed with
TNCremoNT:
Transfer of *.chm files:
Online help files are binary files. If TNCremoNT is updated to version 2.5,
the file extension .chm is automatically added to the list of binary file types.
Otherwise the list of binary file types must be amended manually under
Extras > Configuration on the Mode tab in order to transfer them correctly.
Performing a backup of the TNC via TNCremoNT:
Online help files are automatically untagged during creation of the scan list
used for the backup. This also applies to CHM files that the machine
manufacturer has saved on the control.
Reason:
The *.chm files saved on the control require a large amount of memory, and
do not need to be backed up, since they are freely available from the
HEIDENHAIN homepage.
Please note that only online help files from HEIDENHAIN are available here.
This setting can be applied to other file types as well in TNCbackup under
Edit > Settings, if necessary.
