Defining a cycle using soft keys

The soft-key row shows the available groups of cycles

Press the soft key for the desired group of cycles, for

example DRILLING for the drilling cycles

Select the desired cycle, for example THREAD

MILLING. The TNC initiates the programming dialog
and asks for all required input values. At the same
time a graphic of the input parameters is displayed in
the right screen window. The parameter that is asked
for in the dialog prompt is highlighted.

Enter all parameters requested by the TNC and

conclude each entry with the ENT key

The TNC ends the dialog when all required data has

been entered

Defining a cycle using the GOTO function

The soft-key row shows the available groups of cycles

The TNC shows an overview of cycles in a pop-up

window

Choose the desired cycle with the arrow keys, or

Choose the desired cycle with CTRL and the arrow

keys (for pagewise scrolling), or

Enter the cycle number and confirm it with the ENT

key. The TNC then initiates the cycle dialog as
described above
