3.11.2 Parallel drawing before the machining of the workpiece
Before machining the workpiece on the machine, you can graphically
display the execution of the program on the screen in order to easily
monitor the result of the programming.
Simultaneous recording is a software option.
You can replace the programmed feedrate with a test-run feedrate in
order to control the execution speed (see Sec. "Establishing the test-
run feedrate").
In addition, you can interrupt or control the graphical execution, i.e.
the functions for program control such as "NC Stop," "Single Block,"
"Feedrate override," etc. are in effect.
If you would like to view the current program blocks again instead of
the graphical display, you can switch to the program view.
This function must be set-up via machine data.
