Comment step
With MILLPWR
G2
, you have the ability to insert messages anywhere
within a program. These messages can be displayed during machining
(at run-time) or as Operator Intervention Messages (OIM). These
messages become operational steps within the program and
communicate pertinent information like "Rotate Part" or "Activate
Coolant".
For comments that don't require an operator intervention, select No
when asked if you want the comment displayed at run-time, and
MILLPWR
G2
will skip over them during machining. You can always
retrieve the message by highlighting the comment step in your
program steps list and pressing ENTER.
To program a comment step:
From the PGM screen, place the cursor below the last step where the
comment is needed.
Press the Program Steps soft key.
Press the Other Steps soft key.
Select Comment in the popup Menu.
Enter your message. You may include up to 60 characters, mixing
numbers, letters, spaces and symbols if needed. Press the
Alphanumeric Keyboard soft key to chose alphabet characters. See
"Keyboard" on page 39 for using the keyboard.
Highlight Display at Run Time. Press the Yes soft key to display the
message during machining or the No soft key if you don't want the
message displayed.
Press the USE key.

In PGM mode, press the Program Steps soft key, then press the Other
Steps soft key, and select Auxiliary Function from the popup
