12.8 Options
This softkey is used to set the appearance and some functions of the graphic window. These
options may be used at any time, even while executing a program.
Option "Activate"
This softkey may be used to activate the graphics. The softkey appears pressed when this
option is enabled. The status of this softkey cannot be modified while executing or simulating
a program.
When the graphic representation is deactivated and activated, the current graphic is erased;
but the display conditions are kept active (type of graphics, zoom, graphic parameters and
display area) that were active before that mode was deactivated.
Option "Simple"
This softkey shows the single window for graphics. The softkey appears pressed when this
option is enabled.
The single window hides the dialog and data areas on the right-hand side of the graphic
window so the drawing occupies the whole graphic window.
Option "Lines"
This softkey hides the solid part of the graphics and only shows the tool paths. The softkey
appears pressed when this option is enabled.
Option "Print"
This softkey may be used to print the graphics in the pre-determined printer or save it as a
file (bmp format) at the CNC. When selecting the "File" option, it will be saved in the folder
"C:\Cnc8070\Users\Reports\"; the file name may be selected using the "Print configuration"
softkey.
When selecting this option, the CNC will show a dialog box requesting the print destination
(printer or file). After selecting the destination, press [ENTER] to print it or [ESC] to cancel it.
Option "Print setup"
It is used to set the printing configuration. When selecting this option, the CNC shows a dialog
box where the following may be defined:
• The title of the graphics that will appear next to it in the print.
• The name of the file where the graphics will be stored when printing out to a file.
After filling out the data, press [ENTER] to accept them or [ESC] to cancel them.
When selecting this option, the softkey menu shows the available options. To return to the
main menu, press the [BACK] key.
