5.7.3 Pattern Frame
The origin coordinates of patterns (See Figure 5-4, Rectangle C) other than the Main Pattern are
expressed as a set of coordinates in the Product Frame. The pattern origin coordinates are stored in the
Pattern Edit Frame when the pattern is created.
5.8 Properties
Every program, pattern, procedure, mask region, and instruction has properties. Properties include items
such as the fixture, pattern coordinates, and instruction approach height, etc. The Property list displays the
properties of the selected item and allows you to change the properties. See
Figure 5-5. Property fields
can contain one or more of the following buttons in addition to numeric and text values:
•
List - Causes a drop-down menu to appear that lists possible values for the property. Click
on a value to enter it into the field.
•
More - Displays the Conditional Editing dialog box. Allows you to enter additional
settings for Set Outputs, If, and While instruction properties.
•
Teach Field - Enters the current X-, Y-, or Z-coordinate of the tool tip in the selected
field.
Numerical values can be edited by selecting the value and typing in a new one, by teaching a new
coordinate, or by making a Delta Change. See
5.14.1 Delta Changes.
