SYSTEM OPERATION - The user interface is very intuitive and user friendly. Important information about

parameters and machine operation is displayed. An operator can have as much or as little interaction

with the interface as is required by the application. If the operator is not comfortable with the computer

based interface, it is only necessary to choose a pass and then control the machine from the pendant.
