6.9.1 Operating procedure
Several profiles may be edited without having to exit the profile editor. To edit a profile,
proceed as follows:
1. Select the type of profile to be edited, such as a circular or rectangular profile or
any profile.
2. For a rectangular or circular profile, define its data and insert it. For any profile,
first select the starting point of the profile.
Once the first point has been selected, draw the profile, which will be made up
of straight and curved sections. If it has corner rounding, chamfering or tangential
entries and exits, use one of these methods:
• Treat them as individual sections when having enough information to define
them.
• Ignore them while defining the profile and, once it has been defined, select
the corners that have those characteristics and insert them.
3. End the profile editing session by inserting them into the program.
The portion of ISO-code program corresponding to the edited profile will be
identified with the line "(#PROFILE)" or it will appear framed between the lines
"(#PROFILE BEGIN)" and "(#PROFILE END)".
