2.2 The CNC PILOT screen

The CNC PILOT shows the data to be displayed in windows. Some

windows only appear when they are needed, for example, for typing

in entries.

In addition, the control shows the type of operation, the soft-key

display

and the PLC soft key display on the screen. Each function

that appears in a field of the soft-key row is activated by pressing the

soft key directly below it.
Operating mode line

The operating mode tabs (at the top of the screen) shows the four

operating modes as well as the submodes.
Machine display

The machine display field (beneath the operating mode tabs) is

configurable. It shows all important information on axis positions, feed

rates, rotational speeds, and tool.

Other windows used:

List and program window

Display of program lists, tool lists, parameter lists, etc. To select

specific elements from the list, simply move the highlight to the

desired element with the arrow keys.

Menu window

Display of menu symbols. This window only appears on the screen

in the Teach-in and Manual modes.

Input window/Dialog window

For entering the parameters of a cycle, ICP element, DIN command,

etc. Look over the existing data, then delete or edit them in the

dialog window.

Graphic support window

Input data (such as cycle parameters, tool data, etc.) are explained

with graphics. The switchover key (the key with three rotating

arrows at the left edge of the screen) allows you to switch between

the help graphics for internal and external machining (only for cycle

programming).

Simulation window

The simulation window shows a graphic representation of the

contour elements and a simulation of the tool movements. This

enables you to check cycles, entire cycle programs, and

DIN programs.
