Simultaneous recording prior to machining of the workpiece

Before machining the workpiece on the machine, you can graphically display the execution
of the program on the screen to monitor the result of the programming.
You can replace the programmed feedrate with a dry run feedrate to influence the speed of
execution and select the program test to disable axis motion.
If you would like to view the current program blocks again instead of the graphical display,
you can switch to the program view.
