SETTING AND DISPLAYING DATA
To operate a CNC machine tool, various data must be set on the CRT/MDI
panel. The operator can monitor the state of operation with data displayed
during operation.
This chapter describes how to display and set data for each function.
This chapter describes the procedure, assuming that the soft keys are used
to select a desired chapter. If the soft keys are not supported, press the key
having the equivalent function two or more times to select the desired
chapter.
The screen transition for when each function key on the MDI panel is
pressed is shown below. The subsections referenced for each screen are
also shown. See the appropriate subsection for details of each screen and
the setting procedure on the screen. See other chapters for screens not
described in this chapter.
