Backing up tool management tables
This feature causes the control to automatically generate a G10L3 program
that stores all of the information that it finds in the current tool
management table. Any time that this G10 program is executed, it clears
any information that is currently in the management tables and replaces it
with the information that is in the G10 program.
To generate the G10L3 backup program of the tool management tables,
follow these steps:
1. Press the {OFFSET} softkey.
