3.3.
Special edit function
When a new program has been made and several tests are required, the operator can switch
from "editing"-mode directly to the "auto"-mode and vice versa by pressing the particular
mode buttons.
When in "data editing" a specific bending is selected, the operator can now select the "auto-
matic mode" or "step by step mode".
In case one wants to edit the program, the edit mode can be selected directly with the program-
ming key. In this way many key operations are saved in order to make program changes
quickly.
Note:
This special edit function can not be used with connected programs.

Edit notes
After changing program data in the menu ‘Data edit’ the control will not automatically calcu-
late:
1
Force
2
Decompression
3
Crowning device setting
4
Z-axis position offset
5
X-axis position correction
Parameters 1 through 4 are only automatically recalculated if the parameter
Auto computa-
tions edit
(see the menu ‘program constants’) has been activated (value = 1).
Parameter 5 is only automatically recalculated if the parameter Bend allowance (see the menu
‘program constants’) has been activated (value =1). Additional corrections on the X-axis posi-
tion can be made with the parameter
corr. X
(per bend) and
G-corr.
(for all the bends of the
active program) in the automatic and step-by-step mode.
For detailed information upon both parameters see the chapter about Automatic mode and
Step-by-step mode.
There is one exception: when the parameter bendmethod is changed the “force” and “Decom-
pression” will be adjusted automatically.
Also you may find that the graphical simulation will not go properly when you have changed
tools and/or X-axis dimensions.
