9.15.1 Additional functions in the input screens
Selection of units
If, for example, the unit can be switched in a field, this is highlighted as soon as the cursor
is positioned on the element. In this way, the operator recognizes the dependency.
The selection symbol is also displayed in the tooltip.
Display of abs or inc
The abbreviations "abs" and "inc" for absolute and incremental values are displayed behind the
entry fields when a switchover is possible for the field.
Help screens
2D and 3D graphics or sectional views are displayed for the parameterization of the cycles.
Online help
If you wish to obtain more detailed information about certain G code commands or cycle
parameters, then you can call a context-sensitive online help.
9.15.2 Checking cycle parameters
The entered parameters are already checked during the program creation in order to avoid
faulty entries.
If a parameter is assigned an illegal value, this is indicated in the input screen as follows:
● The entry field is displayed with a colored background (orange).
● The comment line displays a note.
● If the parameter entry field is selected with the cursor, the note is also displayed as a tool tip.
The programming can only be completed after the incorrect value has been corrected.
Faulty parameter values are also monitored with alarms during the cycle runtime.
9.15.3 Setting data for technological functions
Technological functions can be influenced and corrected using machine or setting data.
