Watch
The control comes with a unique function for watching critical process related parameters during
cutting. The Watch window allows the operator to customize a certain portion of the screen to display
functions that are critical for your particular cutting operation. Whether it is Current Speed, Position,
I/O status, or torch consumable life, you now have the flexibility to display the information that you
want to see.
As these parameters are turned ON or OFF, the Watch window will be updated with the new
graphical widget. Widget is a GUI programmer‟s term for defining icons which graphically display
information.
Several options are available to personalize the Watch window and not all options can be viewed at
one time. The options are grouped into two sizes of widgets or icons. Large widgets may be placed
into the upper position at the top of the Watch window or in the middle of the Watch window. Small
widgets are positioned in the lower left corner of the Watch Window next to the cut information and
clock. The cut information and clock at the lower right may not be edited.
Selections in the Watch window will change slightly based on the control I/O configuration and
machine option selections that have been enabled.
The Watch positions will allow for the following selections.
None
Selecting None will leave the selected position blank.
