extended functions. These extended functions allow you to process
technology-oriented program steps which are stored and displayed
with special icons in the editor for each step type to enable easier
recognition. The steps must be defined in the SEDITOR.INI file:
- Groups of individual instructions:
G codes, keywords, etc.
- Synchronization instructions (e.g. WAITM)
- Cycles
- Contour definitions
Advantages:
- Improved readability of programs
- Operations based on steps (copy, insert,
delete etc.)
- Recompilation from step to DIN code, contour definition and
- cycle display available
- Step sequence displays form the basis for
the multi-channel step sequence programming
See Section 6.7 Structured display in the step editor (option)
Multi-channel step sequence programming is available as an option
and offers the following features:
• Simultaneous display of several programs for a workpiece in
multiple channels
• Optional fixed step lengths or time proportional display of step
lengths in the channels
• Display of processing duration for steps and waiting time at
synchronization points
See Section 6.8 Multi-channel step sequence programming (option)
Function
In programs written with program templates or when using the
programming support functions, certain machine-specific code lines
may be protected against changes.
A read-only identifier (";*RO*") is tagged onto the code program blocks
as a comment.
