Acu-Rite CNC 3500i user manual Block History

Block History

The MDI block history allows the operator to record all cycles that are programmed into the MDI to be retrieved or saved into a part program. By default the recording of the MDI cycles is on and can be turned off by toggling the Record button on the second set of menu bar MDI buttons.

This block history can be cleared by touching the Clear History button on the second set of menu bar buttons or saved into a part program by touching the Save History button. When saving the history, the operator is given the option to save it as a G-code/ISO program or Conversational.

To view the current history, touch the Block History button on the second set of menu bar MDI buttons.

From within this dialog individual cycles can be deleted by highlighting the cycle in the list and touching the Delete button. The cycle form can also be opened again for re-edit. Select a cycle, and/or re-run a cycle by touching the Select button. Once the cycle form is brought back up the operator can then follow the same procedure as the previous section for running the cycle. Touch Close to exit the Block History dialogue.
