Running a Program
To run a program, move to the first step and press the
RUN
softkey. You
must now execute the step and, when you are done, press the
NEXT
softkey
to run the next step.
When you run a program, the part view graphic is automatically replaced by
the position display so you can move to zero as required.
You can run a program starting from any step; just move to the step you
want to start with and press
RUN
. Remember that milling function steps
are normally preceded by a Tool step that is required to calculate the correct
tool offsets.
Tool Steps
If the step is a Tool step, the new tool offsets are used and the new tool
description is shown in the status bar. Check the tool you are using, and
change it if necessary.
Positioning Steps
If the step is a positioning step (such as Mill or Bolt Circle), the programmed
position is preset into the axis displays. The axis display is switched to
incremental. You can now move to zero in each axis.
