There is a softkey that allows you to change the unit display between millimeters and inches. This softkey is shown in the "Jog" and "Execute" work pages.
· If the page displays the data in millimeters, the [Switch to inches] softkey will be displayed.
· If the page displays the data in inches, the [Switch to mm] softkey will be displayed.
"Jog" page with softkey [Switch to mm].
"Execute" page with softkey [Switch to inches].
The change units softkey can be hidden or visible. To show/hide the softkey follow these steps:
The CNC allows executing a part-program from any work page by pressing the [START] key.
To avoid unwanted executions from the "Edit" and "Jog" pages, it is possible to enable the option of double [START] to validate. In this way, after pressing the [START] key, the CNC will request to press [START] again to carry out the execution.
After pressing the [START] key, the CNC displays the following message: "START has been pressed for program execution. Press START again to continue"
"Edit" page.
"Jog" page.
Pressing [START] from the "Jog" page, it will be possible to disable the "Double START to validate" option by checking the box on the left of "Do not confirm START until next start".
To enable/disable double START to validate, follow these steps:
To change the position of the vertical softkey menu, follow these steps:
The CNC allows viewing, both on the "Jog" page and on the "Execute" page, the position in which the tool changes are made. The tool change position window is displayed on the right side of the page, when the "Machining conditions" visualizing option is active.
To show/hide the tool change position window follow these steps:
When the CNC shows a warning or an error, it can show it in a minimized window or in a maximized window. From the "HMI Configuration" page you can configure whether you want to display the warnings and errors by default, minimized or maximized.
To enable or disable the minimized notice window option, follow these steps:
To change the size and position of the warning and error window, follow these steps:
There are two ways to change the size and position of the window, one is manually, using the mouse, and the other one is through the HMI configurator.
To manually change the size and position of the screen, follow these steps:
To change the size and position of the window using the HMI configurator, follow these steps:
Two virtual panels are available, one horizontal and one vertical, which can be displayed and configured from the "HMI Configuration" page.
To display the virtual panels, press [Alt] + [K] keys or follow these steps:
Any of the virtual panels (horizontal and vertical) can be configured in one of the following formats:
To select the desired format, follow these steps:
There are two ways to change the size and position of the virtual panels, one is manually, using the mouse, and the other one is through the HMI configurator.
To manually resize and position virtual panels, follow these steps:
To change the size and position of the virtual panels using the HMI configurator, follow these steps:
The CNC allows you to configure the cycles depending on the type of machine that is being used (milling machine or lathe). From the "Cycles" section of the "HMI Configuration" screen it will be possible to configure the different cycle options.
To configure the cycles, follow these steps:
Within "Cycles" there are several sections to configure the cycles for both Milling and Lathe machines. Set the desired options for each section.
Allows you to activate/deactivate the options "Additional M functions that mey be associated with a cycle", "Approach distance in Z axix machining" and "Next tool to get ready after the cycle".
Milling machine model.
Lathe model.
Allows you to select the following axes: "Abscissa", "Ordinate" and "Perpendicular axis" for milling cycles. In the lathe model, the ordinate axis is not a valid axis.
Milling machine model.
Lathe model.
Allows you to activate/deactivate the "Additional M functions that may be associated with a cycle", "Vertical lathe" and "Invert initial and final points in face threading" options.
Milling machine model.
Lathe model.
Allows you to select the following axes: "Face axis", "Longitudinal axis" and "Ordinate axis" for the lathe cycles. In the lathe model, the ordinate axis is not a valid axis.
Milling machine model.
Lathe model.
Once everything is configured, save the changes made by pressing the [Apply changes] softkey or [F12].
