[Step add]
A step is added with the smallest number not currently stored (Except step 10 and
11). After the step 9 free step number is 12. At same time the step is added, initial
setting for step parameters is stored.
[Step delete]
This deletes the step at the step No. where the cursor is located.
[Reference copy]
Copy the selected reference program to selected editing program except Step and
Position data.
[Copy all]
Data of all items except for [Step] and [Position] is copied to all the steps of a
program to edit from all the steps of a reference program.
[OK]
By clicking "OK" save the all changes and close dialog box.
[Cancel]
By clicking "Cancel" all changes are canceled.
Each step parameter is explained in the following.
Step command:
The relationship between position coordinates of different steps is determined by a
step command. When creating a new program, position storage is performed for
steps 2, 3, and 7 only.
The remaining steps are found through calculation using the 3 steps for which
position storage has been done.
What calculation formula to use is determined by the step command in that step?
The program parameters D to D4 are used for the distance data used in the
calculation formula.
The relationship between step commands and position coordinate calculation formula
is shown in after.
Position command
Position command indicates whether the position data in a step changes depending
on the layer and work being stacked, and if it does not change, the command
indicates by how much. These commands cause the amount of memory area needed
for position data to be stored.
The relationship between position commands and changes in position data is shown
in the after.
