Testing Your Program
It’s always a good idea to test your program before you cut
your part.
• Press RUN OPTIONS and then select both the DRY RUN and
GRAPHICS ONLY softkeys.
• Press RUN OPTIONS again to finish.
• Move to the start of the program by pressing the 1 key
followed by the ENTER key.
• Now press the GO key. Watch as MILLPWR shows you how
the part will be cut at dry run speed.
• Press RUN OPTIONS . Press GRAPHICS ONLY to
de-select it.
Dry Run with Graphics Only
Dry Run with Movement
Before you press the GO key to begin the dry run, ensure
that the tool will not touch the workpiece when the quill
begins to move. To avoid tool interference, we suggest
that you do one or more of the following:
• Lower the knee
• Remove the tool or workpiece
• Reestablish datum away from the part (refer to
Establishing Datum located in Section 2).
