EDITING-SIMULATION MODE
Selecting the editing and simulation mode
This work mode may be accessed from any channel and even from several channels
at the same time. A different program may be edited and simulated in each channel.
What can you do in this work mode?
The following operations are possible in this work mode:
• Edit, modify or view the contents of a part-program.
A program may be edited in CNC programming language (ISO or high level) with
the assistance of a conversational editor for machining cycles and positioning
assisted by a profile editor or using the TEACH-IN feature.
• Simulate the execution of a program displaying a graphic representation of the
program being simulated.
• Estimate the total program execution time and the machining time for each tool.
The editing-simulation mode may be accessed from any other operating mode, even
while a program is in execution, by pressing the relevant key.
