5.4 BACKGROUND DRAWING (OPTION FUNCTION)
This function is a function by which, while machining is in progress,
tool path drawing and animated simulation can be executed
concurrently using another program.
NOTE
This function requires the option function for NC
background drawing.
The operating instructions are the same as those of the conventional
tool path drawing and animated simulation functions, except the
following:
1. Selection of the program with which drawing is to be executed
2. Display and cancellation of alarms that may be generated during
the execution of drawing
3. Screen switching using a function key
4. Display of the operation status on the drawing screen
5.4.1 Selection of the Program with Which Drawing Is to Be Executed
To select a program, first push the soft-key [DIR] and then select the
desired one from the program directory window.
Pushing the soft-key [DIR] causes the following soft-keys to be
displayed. Position the cursor on the desired program No. and push the
soft-key [CHECK], and the program No. is selected and the system
switches to the drawing screen.
If the soft-key [CHECK] is pushed in a window other than the program
directory window, which is displayed by pushing the soft-key [DIR],
the program No. currently selected in the foreground is assumed the
desired program No. and the system switches to the drawing screen. If
the function key GRAPH is pushed, no new program No. is selected,
but the program No. currently selected in the background is assumed
and the system switches to the drawing screen.
