5.2 Main Menu

As an alternative, you can set the ”path display in
supplementary windows” to always (in the ”Window
selection” dialog box). Then, each traverse path will be
shown in all simulation windows.

Source block display
For NC programs with more than one slide, define
which slides are to be shown in the source block
display.

”Set up - Slides”: For lathes with more than one
slides, define:

”Path output for ...”:

– ”All slides”: Display traverse paths of all slides
– ”Current slides”: Display traverse paths of the
selected slide

Slide position: Define for every slide whether the

tool traverse should be depicted in front of or
behind the workpiece.
”Reset” button:The slide position defined in the
machine parameters is adopted.

”Set up - Contour selection”:

In the dialog box, define whether one selected

contour or all contours of the NC program are
described.

Define whether zero point shifts are to be taken

into account.

”Set up – Status line” or ”PgUp/PgDn” switches
the die ”display.” Thus you can check either the tool
data or the technology data.

”Set up - Zero point C” (only during active

”surface window”): In the ”zero point” dialog box,
define the position at which the unrolled cylinder is
to be ”cut open.” The ”C-angle” that you enter is
located on the Z axis.
Default setting: ”C-angle = 0°”
