Chapter 5

After you have selected a part program to edit, use the following method to
add lines, blocks, or characters to the part program. The control should be
in the edit mode at this point with EDIT: displayed in the input area of the
screen (lines 2-3).
To enter blocks in a program:
1.
Use the up, down, left and right cursor keys to move the block cursor
to the location where you want to add program blocks or characters.
2.
Type the program characters you want to enter in the input area.
Press the
[EOB]
key (end of block) at the end of each block.
If you make a mistake while keying in a character before it is sent from
the input area, you can edit the input lines as described on page 2-41.
3.
Press the
[TRANSMIT]
key to send data from the input lines to the
program display area.
After data has been sent to the program display area of the screen
(lines 7-22), you cannot edit it by using the input cursor.
4.
Repeat these steps until the entire program has been entered.
Changing
You can replace characters or words with one or several characters or
words by using the change feature. Follow these steps to change data that
has already been entered into the program display area.
1.
From the edit menu, press the
{MODIFY INSERT}
softkey until the
control displays the MODIFY: prompt on the input line. The control
toggles between change and insert each time you press the
