Further softkey functions
The following softkeys are available in corresponding contour element window for programming the contour elements on the
basis of pre-assigned parameters.
Tangent to preceding element
This softkey presets the angle
α2 to a value of 0. The contour element has a tangential transition to
the preceding element, i.e. the angle to the preceding element (α2) is set to 0 degree.
Displaying all parameters
Press this softkey to display a selection list of all the parameters for the
selected contour element. If
you leave any parameter input fields blank, the control assumes that you do not know the right
values and attempts to calculate these from the settings of the other parameters. The contour is
always machined in the programmed direction.
Input switchover
This softkey is displayed only in cases where the cursor is positioned on an input field with several
switchover settings.
Selecting dialog
Some parameter configurations can produce several different contour characteristics. In such cas-
es, you will be asked to select a dialog. By clicking this softkey, you can display the available sele
c-
tion options in the graphic display area. Select this softkey to make the correct selection (green
line).
Confirm your choice with this softkey.

dialog was originally chosen. Both alternatives are displayed again when you select this softkey.
