Returning features to the part program
 Press the Return Feature to transfer the current geo step to the part
program. The soft key is disabled when it is not possible to transfer
the current step to the program.
 If no program step is open, Return Feature adds an equivalent
program step at current location. The system returns to PGM view
with the new step open.
 If a program step is open, Return Feature (GeoPoint) returns the
GeoPoint’s coordinate to the current field (x and y).
 If a program step is open, Return Feature return of line or arc is only
possible if feature matches the step type.
 If the return type does not match the destination step/field, nothing
is returned.
Geometry calculator functions
 Pressing the Calc Function soft key opens a pop-up menu for
selecting a function.
Clear calculator
 Removes all Geo steps from the calculator.
Loading and saving calculator contents
 Press Save Calculator to save the current GeoCalc session to
internal memory.
 Press Load Calculator to load the previously saved GeoCalc
session into the calculator.
Loading the part program into the geometry calculator
 The Load Program function adds the equivalent geometry steps
(GeoPoint, GeoLine, and GeoArc) from the program to the calculator
listing at the current cursor location.
 Hole patterns are converted to a series of GeoPoints.
 Rectangle and circle steps are converted to profile GeoLines and
GeoArcs
 All other steps (tool, replication, engrave, etc.) are not supported
