5.3 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.
Software option
You require the option "Simultaneous recording (real-time simulation)" for
the simultaneous recording.
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.
Procedure
1. Load a program in the "AUTO" mode.
2. Press the "Prog. ctrl." softkey and activate the checkboxes "PRT no
axis movement" and "DRY run feedrate".
The program is executed without axis movement. The programmed
feedrate is replaced by a dry run feedrate.
3. Press the "Sim. rec." softkey.
4. Press the <CYCLE START> key.
The program execution is displayed graphically on the screen.
5. Press the "Sim. rec." softkey again to stop the recording.
