Time estimates
The statistics window shows an estimate of the execution of the program selected
in the editing window, and whose name appears at the bottom center of the screen.
The process to estimate time is the following:
1. Use the program window to select the first and last block for the execution time
estimate.
If not selected, the execution time estimate will be done from the first block of the
program to the execution of one of the end-of-program functions "M02" or "M30".
Simulation options
These options may also be turned on or off while simulating the program. When they
are active, its corresponding icon of the icon menu will appear pressed.
The simulation options available are:
Program selected for time estimate.
2. Activate the desired simulation options using the icon menu.
3. Start the estimate calculation by pressing its TIMES icon.
"Single block" mode
It selects the "single block" mode so the execution time calculation is interrupted at
the end of each block.
Block jump
It simulates the external "block skip" switch.
When active, the CNC will NOT calculate the execution time of the blocks containing
the block-skip character "/".
