Time Calculation

During machining or motion simulation, the CNC
PILOT calculates the productive and non-productive
times.

Call: ”Settings - Times” menu item

Exit the time calculation

The machining times, idle times and total times are
shown in the table ”Time calculation” (green:
machining times; yellow: idle times). Each line
represents the use of a new tool (for each tool call
withT).

If there are more table entries than fit on a screen
page, you can call further time data with the arrow
keys and PgUp/PgDn.

In control parameters 20 and 21 you can
define which control parameters will be
included in the time calculation.
