8.3.2 Contextual programming assistance.
The contextual assistance is shown when editing commands in high level language.
• Keying in "V" shows the list of CNC variables.
• Keying in "#" shows the list of CNC instructions.
• Keying in "$" shows the list of flow control instructions of the CNC.
In all of them, when keying the following letter of the variable or instruction name, the cursor
of the list goes to the first command that starts with that letter. The [
][] keys may be used
to move the cursor through the list of commands and the [ENTER] key to enter the selected
command into the block that is being edited.
Entering a help element in the block being edited.
When an element has been selected from the list and [ENTER] is pressed, the editor inserts
in the cursor position the element selected in the drop menu.
• If the statement does not have parameters, the editor inserts the whole statement.
• If the statement has parameters, but the text written by the user does not have any
parameters, the editor inserts only the fixed part of the statement. If the user has written
a parameter, the editor does not insert anything.
• If it is not an axis variable and/or array variable, the editor inserts the whole variable.
• If it is an axis variable and/or array variable, but the user has not written it, the editor inserts
only the fixed part of the variable. If it is an axis variable and/or array variable and the
user has written it, the editor does not insert anything.
After inserting an element, if it is necessary, the bottom of the screen maintains the contextual
assistance for that element to complete the editing of the block. Pressing [ENTER] again,
the contextual assistance disappears from the bottom of the screen.
Activating the contextual assistance.
Contextual help is activated from the general customizing options. Contextual assistance is
not available when using the 8055 CNC language.
