Running-in a program

You have various options to run-in programs.
Running-in channel-by-channel
Select the channels that you wish to process using the "Running-in" function in the "Program
control" window. The channels not selected here are brought into the "Program test (PRT)"
state. As a consequence, the channels are only calculated, but are not processed.
No M and auxiliary functions or tool functions are output. Spindle commands are only output
for selected spindles.
Running-in spindle-by-spindle
Only machining operations are executed for a spindle selected under program control /
running-in. When programming, using the block formation, allocate the corresponding
machining operations to a spindle.
When generating a block, a complete block can be assigned to a spindle. For the case that
the block is not executed, as the specified spindle cannot be processed, then save a so-
called "running-in – supplementary code"
Precondition
