Abstract
The new ESU Thermal Infrared Multi-Mode Instrument TIMMI2 is described in detail in Reimann et al. The TNT-Timmi Navigator Terminal is the graphical user interface for TIMMI2. It provides the communication between telescope, instrument and reduction pipeline. The TNT is a very easy way allows the astronomer to prepare and run complex observing programs. The graphical elements are based on Forms Library (A Graphical User Interface Toolkit for X). The TNT is written in C.
