LIGHTING This key is used to turn on or off the work light on the machine.
SINGLE When this function is used, the control will execute one block
BLOCK (line) of a program at a time. This function is used in AUTO mode when
machining a part for the first time. CYCLE START must be pressed after
each block of data is processed.
BLOCK When this key is turned on, the blocks in a program that are
DELETE preceded by a forward slash (/) will not get executed.
OPTIONAL If this key is turned on, the control will stop executing a program
STOP when it sees an M01 (optional stop) command. It will complete all the
commands on the same block as the M01 and then stop. When this key is
turned off, the M01 command is ignored.
DRY RUN Turn on this key when checking a newly prepared part program in AUTO
mode. With this function activated, cutting feedrate commands, with the
exception of manual feed and G00 mode feed, are all executed at the
milling feedrate (mm/min) set by the parameter. The parameter long word
No. 9 is factory set to 2,400 mm/min.
MACHINE When a part program is executed with this key activated, all
LOCK commands in the part program are executed without actual machine
operation. The simulated operation can be checked on the CRT. In this
mode, the cutting feedrate is determined by the programmed spindle
speed.
MID AUTO Press this key to interrupt an AUTO mode operation; carry out
MANUAL the required manual mode operation, and resume the AUTO mode opera-
tion.
