You have various options to run-in programs.
Running-in channel-by-channel
Select the channels that you wish to process using the "Running-in" function in the "Program
control" window. The channels not selected here are brought into the "Program test (PRT)"
state. As a consequence, the channels are only calculated, but are not processed.
No M and auxiliary functions or tool functions are output. Spindle commands are only output
for selected spindles.
Running-in spindle-by-spindle
Only machining operations are executed for the spindle selected under program control /
running-in. When programming, using the block formation, allocate the corresponding
machining operations to a spindle.
When generating a block, a complete block can be assigned to a spindle. For the case that
the block is not executed, as the specified spindle should not be considered when running in,
then it is possible to temporarily activate what is known as an "Addit. run-in code".
You require the "programSYNC" option for cross
-channel program control.
