Icon description (vertical softkeys)

The icons are activated with their associated softkey (F8 to F12).

List of icons

The icon menu offers all the options for the selected table. The group of icons of this
menu may be expanded with the softkey associated with the "+" icon that offers a new
set of icons.

Display units (millimeters/inches)

To toggle the units for the position of the linear axes. Toggling these units does not
affect the rotary axes which will always be displayed in degrees.

The icon highlights the units currently selected (millimeters or inches).

It must be borne in mind that the unit change is only valid for display and data entry.
A program assumes the units defined with the active function "G70" or "G71", or, when
not programmed, the units set by the machine manufacturer.

Initialize table

Find text

It is used to find a text or a value in the table.

When selecting this option, the CNC shows a dialog box requesting the text to be
found.

Accessing the tables of other channels

(This icon will only be available when using channels).

Some tables only show the data of the active channel. This icon gives access to the
tables of the other channels.

Select axes

It may be used to select the axes to be displayed in the tables.

When using several channels, only those axes assigned to the active channel may
be accessed.

Save tool

It saves the values of the table into a file. This file may be saved at the CNC, in a floppy
disk or at another CNC (or PC) connected through Ethernet.
