manual for a vmc 500 ?

[dippy doo]

hello everyone, soon to be using a vmc 500 an want to make sure i know how they work etc, all i know is the control pannel is a older model than what ive been used, main defference being the graphics are alot more simple,

Is there more than one type of control pannel used on the vmc 500 ?

Cheers

I am not quite sure what MT that is. Many builders will use different controls on their machines but will be dependent on what the enduser wants. Some MTB stick to a specific brand for a control.

What does the front of the control say?

TNC 370 control, its heidenhain

the machine i have been using used a Heidenhain iTNC 530 smar T.N.C control
i think, which i have found extremly easy to use, but having look at pictures of the vmc 500 machine its display looks to be alot more simple.

Thanks

I believe you can download the manual for that control on the Heidenhain website.

Yes I believe that you can. This is what I found on their website.

You can also just google TSN370 manual and it comes up with all sorts of manuals.
I will even type it for you.
