4.7.2 Continuing program from search target
To continue the program at the desired position, press the <CYCLE START> key twice.
● The first CYCLE START outputs the auxiliary functions collected during the search. The
program is then in the Stop state.
● Before the second CYCLE START, you can use the "Overstore" function to create states
that are required, but not yet available, for the further program execution.
By changing to the JOG REPOS mode, you can also manually traverse the tool from the
current position to the setpoint position, if the setpoint position is not to be automatically
approached after the program start
