1.3 PROGRAM CREATING OPERATIONS
1.3.1 Start Up
The MANUAL GUIDE 0i screen can be brought up at any time by
pressing the “CUSTOM” pushbutton on the MDI panel. From this
screen, the user can enter the number of a program that they want to
create or edit.
Even when the user wants to create a new program (or edit an existing
one), they do not have to set the CNC operating mode to “EDIT.”
With MANUAL GUIDE 0
i, background editing is always possible.
The user must ensure that the part program they wish to edit is not an
“active” part program on the CNC. To determine whether the program
is active, check that the “O” number at the top of the CNC screen is
not the same as that of the program you wish to edit. To change the
active program number, select the “PROG” pushbutton on the MDI
key panel, enter “Oxxxx” (where xxxx is any number in program
memory other than that which you wish to edit), and then press the
cursor down (down arrow) key on the MDI key panel. The “O”
number at the top of the screen will change to the number you
entered.
If the program to be edited is currently active on the CNC, the CNC
screen will display a warning screen to inform the operator. Select the
“Left Arrow” soft-key on the display unit to return to the software’s
main screen, and then enter the number of the program that you wish
to create or edit.
