option (AFC)

Each line in the .H.AFC.DEP file stands for a machining section,

that you start with FUNCTION AFC CUT BEGIN and complete with
FUNCTION AFC CUT END

. You can edit all data of the .H.AFC.DEP

file if you wish to optimize them. If you have optimized the values in

comparison with the values in the AFC.TAB table, the TNC places an

asterisk * in front of the control settings in the AFC column. Besides

the data from the AFC.TAB table (see "Defining the AFC basic settings"
