Running a Program
Chapter 7

Quick Check is a basic syntax checker for a part program. It checks that
proper format and syntax has been followed during programming . No
actual axis motion is produced in Quick Check mode however offsets and
coordinate system shifts are performed. The Quick Check feature is also
available with an optional graphics feature.
If the graphics feature is to be used refer to chapter 8 for Quick Check with
graphics. To use the Quick Check feature as described below without
graphics the graphics option must be disabled as discussed in chapter 8.
To use the Quick Check feature follow these steps.
1. Select a program to check as described in section 7.3 and return to
softkey level 1.
2. Press the {QUICK CHECK} softkey.

When the {QUICK CHECK} softkey is pressed, quick check is
displayed in reverse video, and the graphics option is prompted.
3. Press the <CYCLE START> button.
When the <CYCLE START> button is pressed the program blocks
are executed as fast as they can be processed by the control.
If a program block is found that contains an error, the program check stops
and the control displays the message “ERROR FOUND”.
To continue checking the remaining program blocks press the
<CYCLE START> button again. If no more errors are found the control
displays the message “COMPLETED WITH ERROR (S)” and the part
program is automatically deactivated to allow editing.
Single Block mode is not available for QuickCheck unless you purchased
the QuickCheck with graphics option. If your system has QuickCheck
graphics you can check your part program one block at a time by activating
Single Block mode and pressing the cycle start button. Single Block is
ignored during QuickCheck if the graphics option is not installed on your
system.
