On the main menu screen, press the [2] soft key to call the
registered–program directory screen for editing.
On the registered–program directory screen for editing, enter the number
of the desired machining program using numeric keys. Alternatively,
move the cursor to the program number. Then press the [EDIT] soft key.
However, be sure to check that the memory protect switch on the machine
operator’s panel has been locked.
(1) Checking the data
By performing the operation described in the section above, the
initial setting screen of the selected machining program appears on
the display.
Press the ↓ page key to check the contents of the machining program.
Pressing this key displays the contents one after another.
(2) Checking all product figures
Pressing the [PLOT] key on the program directory screen draws, in
a window, the product figures for all machining processes included
in the machining program, together with the corresponding
workpiece figures. The above figures are drawn on the program
screen in the same way.
When the product figures are drawn, the final figures specified in the
machining program are displayed in the material figures using lines.
Since it is hard to see the figures, they are drawn according to
machining type as listed below.
Machining type Description of drawing
BAR (bar machining) The specified final contour is drawn with
straight lines and arcs.
PT.RPT (pattern repeating) The specified final contour is drawn with
straight lines and arcs.
RESID. (residual machin-
ing)
The residual is drawn using straight lines based
on the start and end point data of the residual
specified by the figure data.
FACING (end facing) The machined end is drawn with straight lines.
THREAD (threading) The portion to be threaded is drawn with two
lines indicating the top and bottom of the
thread.
GROOVE (grooving) The cross section of the groove is drawn with
straight lines.
