Enabling or disabling run time graphic displays
Graphic displays of the part view and feature measurements are often useful during program execution.
However, the real-time display of graphics requires the commitment of system resources. Disabling the
display of graphics frees up computer resources and speeds program execution. When the display of
graphics has been disabled for program execution, it will automatically be resumed when the execution is
complete.
• Max speed on disables graphic displays during execution
• Max speed off enables graphic displays during execution
When Max speed on or Max speed off is selected from the menu,
the new line will appear at the insertion point below the current step
set earlier.
Enabling or disabling full CNC mode
Crosshair systems execute CNC programs in the assisted CNC mode. In this mode, the stage is driven
to a feature, then control of the stage is given to the operator. When the operator completes the feature
measurement, the stage is driven by the system to the next feature to be measured.
Edge detection systems can operate in the manual or full CNC modes. In the full CNC mode the stage is
moved and features are measured completely under the control of the system. In a few instances, operator
intervention might be required at some point in the program execution. In these cases, the
full CNC mode can be turned off to permit operator intervention, and then turned back on
to continue conducting automated measurements.
Click the desired CNC mode in the Tools/Programming/CNC Mode
Steps menu, the new line will appear at the insertion point below the
current step set earlier.
