4.

Press either the

{STORE END PT}

or the

{EDIT & STORE}

softkeys to

store this block as a circular block. This records the current wheel
location as the final position for this digitize operation.

The

{STORE END PT}

softkey does not return the control to the

program display screen. Pressing this softkey inserts the generated
block at whatever location the cursor was last at and allows the
operator to immediately begin entering the next block using this
same digitize feature.

The

{EDIT & STORE}

softkey returns the control to the program

display screen. The program block just generated is displayed on the
input line of the CRT and can be edited as covered on page 2-41.
The control then inserts this block at the location of the block cursor
when you press the

[TRANSMIT]

key.

Important: To abort the circular digitize operation, press the exit {

}

softkey at any time before pressing the

{STORE END PT}

or

{EDIT & STORE}

softkeys. The control returns to softkey level 4. Then

select either another digitize feature (by pressing one of the softkeys) or
press the exit {

} softkey to return the control to the regular edit session.
