3.12 Automatic mode settings
For automatic mode, configure the pre-settings for the following
functions:
 Program sequence under Automatic
For graphical display of a program, the feedrate of the test-run can
be specified.
 Workpiece counter
For counting workpieces in G-code programs, counters are
available, which display the number of needed workpieces as well
as the total number of workpieces produced.
3.12.1 Establishing the test-run feedrate
Before machining a workpiece, test the program without moving the
machine axes. For early detection of programming errors, the parallel
drawing function is available to you. For this, you can use your own
preset test-run feedrate (see Sec. "Parallel drawing before machining
the workpiece").
The feedrate can be changed while the operation is running.
Auto
 Switch to "Machine Auto" mode in the expanded horizontal
softkey bar.
 Press the "ShopT. sett." softkey.
 In "Dry run feedrate", enter the desired test-run speed.
