2.10.9 Simultaneous recording before machining
In automatic mode you can display your program graphically in the
"Program test" function before machining, without traversing the
machine axes.
Simultaneous recording is a software option.
The graphic displays a workpiece as if it were being machined with a
cylindrical tool.
Status displays
The status display in the graphic contains the following information:
• Current axis coordinates
• Block currently being processed.
• The processing time (in hours/minutes/seconds)
indicates the approximate time that would actually be required to
execute the machining program on the machine (incl. tool change).
The timer is stopped if the program is interrupted.
