After deliberate interruptions (simulation STOP or Single-block in the
main simulation menu) or on alarms, you can use the "Correct
program" softkey to open the program in the editor at the point of
interruption. For interruptions within protected cycles the program
pointer is positioned at the line with the corresponding subroutine call.
If changes are made in the editor, simulation is returned to the last
active section (intermediate model if available).
Other information
1. The integrity of the simulation data (programs, subroutines, tool
data, etc.) is assured by systematic time-stamp evaluation.
2. NC language labels (e.g. WAIT: WAITM...) ...), programmed to
identify particular points in the program, can be inserted in the
simulation graphic as path labels. You can simultaneously
initiate generation of intermediate models at these points in the
program (see "Managing Settings\Display and colors...\Path label
management").
3. The model used is based on a 3D Cartesian model.
After a program or workpiece is selected, the Simulation softkey
becomes available.
