PROGRAM
The purpose of the EasyStep function is to allow users with no G-code
programming knowledge to create a complete, executable program by
chaining individual elements such as the following in a step-by-step
process:
• Straight, chamfer, circle, cycles
(e.g. thread, cutting, contour cycles)
• Special commands (e.g. tool change, auxiliary commands, dwell
times, programmed stop, tool nose radius compensation, zero
offsets and comments).
