26.3.4 Playback
Playback is a function in which teach in mode is selected, so that the
machine can be moved along an axis to the desired machine position,
and the position is inserted into the machining program.
Teach in mode is that mode in which both EDIT and manual modes are
selected simultaneously. In this mode, the editing of NC programs and
the manual movement of the machine along an axis can be performed
simultaneously.
When teach in mode is selected, and an axis address is keyed in and a
word is inserted, the axis address is inserted into the machining
program, with the absolute coordinate position being automatically
added. This allows the creation of a machining program using machine
positions resulting from manual movement as program coordinates.
Apart from axis addresses, program addresses (such as O, N, G, M, S, T,
P, Q, and R) can be edited with the same editing operations as those for
ordinary program editing.
