MC_1107:
Cutter compensation
in Draw
Activates/deactivates cutter
compensation in Draw Modes.
Ignore - CNC will not show
compensated moves (if any)
used in the program.
Use - CNC shows compensated
and non-compensated
programmed moves.
Both
- CNC runs the program
twice. First, the program is
run without compensated
moves. Second, the program
is run showing compensated
moves. This provides a
comparison of the two paths
to determine programming
errors related to
compensation. [Default]
MC_1108:
Draw view
Determines perspective of Draw view.
XY
- (top view) displays program in
X and Y. [Default]
XZ - displays program in X and Z.
YZ - displays program in Y and Z.
ISO - displays program in X, Y,
and Z.
MC_1109:
Aspect ratio
correction factor
Corrects circularity problems with
display of circles and drawings in
general. In cases where a circle may
look distorted (that is, like an egg), this
parameter can be used to make the
circle look like a TRUE circle.
Increasing the number will make the
circle taller and skinnier; decreasing the
number will make the circle shorter and
fatter.
Range (0.01–10.00)
1.47 [Default]
MC_1110:
Save/Restore Draw
image when using
Edit
Saves draw image when user switches
to Edit Mode. In Draw Mode, when the
Edit
(
F2
) soft key is pressed, the CNC
switches to Edit Mode. The user later
re-enters the Draw Mode when you exit
Edit Mode. If this option is enabled
(Yes), the CNC restores the image on
the screen prior to entering Edit. This
image will correspond to the part
program drawing.
Yes
- Saves draw image. [Default]
No - Does not save draw image.
