The 【Preview all】 key can be pressed to preview the path (or press the 【Preview to】 key to preview the
program block at the cursor's current position) as shown in the figure below.
To start a new preview, the 【Stop】 key can be pressed to clear the preview path.
There are two preview approaches: "single step" and "continuous".
1. By pressing the 【Single step】 key on the human machine page, the program path of that program block
will be drawn, and the program path of the next block will be drawn by pressing the 【Single step】 key
again. Program paths can be drawn by repeating this process as shown in the figure below. If the 【Stop】
key is pressed during the preview process, all paths drawn are cleared.
1.
2. If the 【Continuous】 key is pressed, the program path will be drawn continuously along with the program
block. If the 【Stop】 key on the human machine page is pressed during preview, all paths drawn will be
cleared.
For magnifying a certain area of the path, the 【Zoom】 key on the human machine page can be pressed for a
white frame to appear. Arrow keys on the MDI panel can be used to move this frame, and <PgUp> and <PgDn>
keys on the MDI panel can be used to determine the size of the area you wish to select.
