Description
To store a description together with an
object inside an app or in View & edit
data from the job menu.
By a setting, stringing of points can be
activated. The generated point is strung
to the previous one with the same code
and string number. A string number is
automatically appended to the generated
line.
It is possible to ignore the
stringing temporarily. The
assigned linework operation
must be set <None>.
On a configured page, codes are selected
from a list or entered into an editable
field.
Together with the objects.
To store a description independent of an
object at any time. A free code can be
used to store a description related to an
object, or extra descriptions such as the
job name or temperature.
For free coding using a codelist:
Pressing the configured hot key
opens a selectable list with the free
codes of the job codelist. The job
codelist must contain free codes.
For free coding with direct input:
Pressing the configured hot key
opens a panel for alphanumeric input.
Stored as time-related information. A time
stamp is stored with each free code. Free
codes selected using quickcoding can be
configured to be stored before or after
the object.
Quick coding is the storing of an object
plus a point or free code using a minimum
number of keystrokes.
