CNC editor
Starting the CNC editor, inserting and managing CNC programs
4.2.3 Deleting a CNC program
Select the program from the CNC program list followed by the Delete CNC program
command from the CNC Program menu or from the context menu. The program is deleted
from the list and the focus moves to the next entry.
4.2.4 Information
Select the program from the CNC program list followed by the Information command from
the CNC Program menu or from the context menu. A dialog containing information about
the selected CNC program appears.
4.2.5 Define Queue Size
You can define the size of the OutQueue data buffer here. This can be very useful if there
is only limited memory space available for the CNC function blocks in the IEC program, so
that not all GeoInfo objects can be stored there and the ring buffer functionality must be
used. This can lead to the occurrence of special effects (e.g. deceleration whilst traversing
straight paths) which you can simulate and reproduce using this function.
Possible values: 5000 - 100000 bytes. Click OK to apply the values.
4.2.6 Defining the start position of the CNC program
In the Starting point dialog, you can enter path start positions deviating from the default
value of 0 for simulation purposes.
Values can be entered for the following axes: X, Y, Z, P, Q, U, V, W.
