Settings
Define the following values in the "Editor Settings" window:
• Horizontal paging ON/OFF
• Display hidden lines ON/OFF
• Time interval for Automatic Save
When you set Automatic Save, you can also set the time intervals
at which text must be saved automatically (applicable only to files
on hard disk). If a value ≠ 0 is entered, the "Save file" softkey is not
displayed. If the value 0 is entered, automatic save is not
performed.
• Automatic numbering ON/OFF
A new block number is automatically inserted on every new line. If
you wish to assign block numbers to an existing program, use the
"Renumber" function.
• Number of first block
• Incrementation of block numbers (e.g. 1, 5, 10)
The following settings are possible for contour programming:
• Last line
Each time you complete a program step in contour programming
you can insert text in the last line
(e.g., "End of contour").
Additional information
• The coordinate system and the technology to be used are set via
the machine data; see Commissioning Manual HMI Advanced.
• Edited programs are automatically enabled after saving.
