Data backup
HEIDENHAIN recommends backing up new programs and files
created on the control to a PC at regular intervals.
The TNCremo data transmission freeware from HEIDENHAIN is a
simple and convenient method for backing up data stored on the
control.
You can also backup files directly from the control. Further
information: "Backup and restore", page 112
You additionally need a data medium on which all machine-
specific data, such as the PLC program, machine parameters,
etc., are stored. Ask your machine manufacturer for assistance, if
necessary.
Take the time occasionally to delete any unneeded files
so that the control always has enough hard-disk space
for system files (such as the tool table).
