The control will assign default values for any information that’s
missing from the DXF drawing (e.g. tool offset, feed rate, etc.). The

The control will then arrange the steps in a logical order based on
common end points, and create a tool path. The program will then
appear on the display.
Test the program before machining to ensure that the program
steps and tool path do what is expected. The program can be
edited and steps rearranged as needed.
