Commands in the "Extras" menu
4.5.9 Tool Radius Correction
4.5.10 Round Path
4.5.11 Smooth Path
4.5.12 Avoid Loop
4.5.13 Suppress Record
If this option is activated and if the start (G41/G42) and the end (G40) of the
tool radius correction and a tool radius (D<Radius>) have been programmed in
the CNC program, the path will be displayed corrected accordingly. This menu
item corresponds to the SMC_ToolCorr POU in the SoftMotion library. The
original path will be displayed in light grey for reference purposes. Positionings
on the corrected path are "blind" positions and are therefore displayed in dark
yellow.
If this option is activated, the rounded path will be displayed, showing the
effect the SMC_RoundPath POU from the SoftMotion library has on the
programmed path. In order to achieve this, the start (G52), end (G50) and
rounding radius (D<Radius>) must be set in the CNC program. The original path
will be displayed in light grey for reference purposes.
If this option is activated, the programmed path will be displayed, showing the
effect of the SMC_SmoothPath POU from the SM_CNC.lib SoftMotion library.
It creates a smoothed path by means of a cubic polynomial (spline segment). In
order to achieve this, the start (G51), end (G50) and rounding radius
(D<Radius>) must be set in the CNC program. The original path will be
displayed in light grey for reference purposes.
If this option is activated, the path created when the path crosses itself and is
cut off at this point (thereby avoiding loops) will be displayed. This menu item
corresponds to the SMC_AvoidLoop POU in the SoftMotion library.
In order to achieve this, the start (G61) and end (G60) must be set in the CNC
program. The original path will be displayed in light grey for reference
purposes.
If this option is activated, all lines in the text editor starting with "/" will be
ignored.
