This section covers how to edit part programs after a program has already
been selected to edit as described on page 5-2.

CAUTION: Any edit operation that you perform on a part

program is permanent. You cannot discard any changes to the

program. Programs are saved in memory at the same time they

are edited.

If you are working with a dual-processes system, you need to follow

different edit operations. Refer to page 30-4 for details.

There are two major sections to the edit screen. They are:

Line
