System information

SECTION TWO - FRONT PANEL OPERATION

F7 (Menu) Main-Prog-Conv-Menu

The F7 (Menu) key will display a list of all conversational programs currently loaded in the parts

directory.

By using F7 - F10 keys, file selection arrows are positioned at the program to edit, and the F5

(Enter) key is pressed to make the selection. The edit window will appear displaying the program

setup screen.

Regardless of which selection mode [F1 (Edit), F2 (New), F3 (Old), F4 (Any), or F7 (Menu)] is

used, whenever the edit window is displayed the number of the conversation program being

worked with will display in the editing window.

F6 (Togle) displays the time and date for each program.

F9 (Verf) Main-Verf

The F9 (Verf) function is used to verify part programs. Most verification is done in the graphics

mode, but it doesn't have to be. The times are valid during verify and can be used to estimate

machining times. The program that is verified is the active program. To get coordinate infor-

mation to compare against a print, put the control in block mode and step through the program.

The cursor in the graphic mode will step around the part, and the X Y Z display will read out the

coordinate values of each point.
