Selecting and storing machining positions
Three possibilities are available in the pattern generator for defining
machining positions:
„ Individual selection:
You select the desired machining position through individual mouse
clicks
„ Quick selection of hole positions in an area defined by the mouse:
By dragging the mouse to define an area, you can select all the hole
positions within it
„ Quick selection of hole positions by entering a diameter:
By entering a hole diameter, you can select all hole positions with that
diameter in the DXF file
You must use the touchpad on the TNC keyboard or a mouse
attached via the USB port in order to select a machining
position.
If the positions to be selected are very close to one another,
use the zoom function.
If required, configure the basic settings so that the TNC
shows the tool paths (see “Basic settings” on page 182).
