Additional functions
The following additional functions are available for programming a
contour:
• Tangent to preceding element
You can program the transition to the preceding element as a
tangent.
• Dialog selection
If two different possible contours result from the parameters
entered thus far, one of the options must be selected.
• Close contour
From the current position, you can close the contour with a straight
line to the starting point.
Creating a contour
element
îš¾ Select a contour element via softkey.
îš¾ Enter all the data available from the workpiece drawing in the
input form (e.g. length of straight line, target position, transition to
