4.1.2 PROGRAM EDITING
A program is edited one block at a time starting from the first block. To do this proceed as
follows:
1.- If the selected block (appearing at the top display) is not the desired one, do the
following:
* Press [CL] twice to clear both displays.
* Enter the desired block number.
* Press [RECALL]
2.- If the block is not empty (bottom display), do the following:
* Press [CL] once to clear the bottom display (block contents).
3.- Edit the block contents by defining all its functions. Use the [A+] and [A-] keys to select
these functions.
The way to program a block is fully described in the "Programming" chapter later on
in this manual.
Once the whole block has been edited, press [ENTER]. The CNC will show the next
block.
Example: N000 G1.7.90 F5000 T1
* Select the block number N000 at the upper display. Make sure the block is empty
(blank), if not empty, press [CL].
* Press [A+]. The block number at the upper display starts to blinks (block editing
mode).
The lower display shows the first function that may be selected. The "G"
character corresponds to a G function.
* Key in "1.7.90" which correspond to G01, G07 and G90.
* Press [A+] and the CNC will display the next available function which, in this
case, is "X".
* Press [A+] and [A-] until the lower display shows the "F" character which
corresponds to the "F" function (feedrate).
* Key in "5000", corresponding to a feedrate value of F5000.
* Press [A+] and the CNC will show the next available function which, in this case,
is the "S" function (spindle).
* Press [A+] and [A-] until the lower display shows the "T" character corresponding
