Note
Operating area switchover
The simulation is exited if you switch into another operating area. If you restart the
simulation, then this starts again at the beginning of the program.
You require the option "3D simulation of the finished part" for the 3D
view.
Simultaneous recording before machining of the workpiece
Before machining the workpiece on the machine, you can graphically display the execution
of the program on the screen to monitor the result of the programming.
You can replace the programmed feedrate with a dry run feedrate to influence the speed of
execution and select the program test to disable axis motion.
If you would like to view the current program blocks again instead of the graphical display,
you can switch to the program view.
You require the option "Simultaneous recording (real
