Entering a program title (or user message)
The method used to enter a program title is also used to enter any text message that will be played back
during program execution as a user prompt.
To enter a program title:
Touch the character and control
keys on the text entry screen to
enter a unique name for your new
program. The number keys on
the front panel can also be used to
enter numeric characters. Char-
acters can be upper or lower case
and can be separated by spaces.
Touch the sym or int’l control
keys to access symbol or interna-
tional characters.
Press the Finish key to enter the
new program name and begin re-
cording the program. The DRO or
Video screen will be displayed.
The system is now ready to re-
cord all datum, measurement,
tolerance and reporting activities.
Perform all the datum, measure-
ment, tolerance and reporting activities just as you would if a program were not being recorded. Program
recording is conducted by the system in the background and is invisible to the operator.
