Teach Trace
The Teach Trace function of the control allows parts to be taught rather than programmed. The
position information from the taught part will remain as a part program that can be saved to disk for
future use.
The Teach Trace algorithms present in the control can recognize both arcs and lines. This will
reduce the overall memory required to store these parts and will improve the smoothness of the cut.
The taught part in memory is in EIA format and can be cut, saved or manipulated using any of the
part options.
The Teach Trace function must be used in conjunction with an optional stand-alone optical tracing
system.
