6.5.1Type of graphics
To select the type of graphics.
The various types of graphics may be line (3D lines, XY, XZ, YZ and Combined) or solid (Sections and 3D solid). Line graphics show the tool path with lines of different colors and solid graphics show an image of the part being simulated.
The type of graphics selected will remain active until another type is selected or the graphic display is deactivated or the CNC is turned off. Likewise, when changing the type of graphics, the CNC will maintain the graphic conditions (zoom, graphic parameters, display area, etc.), defined for the last graphic.
When selecting this option, the softkey menu shows the types of graphics available. To return to the main menu, press the key for the previous menu.
"3D lines" Graphics
It displays a
"Sections" Graphics
It displays a top view (XY plane) of the part being simulated; it shows the machining depths in different tones. It also displays the XZ and YZ sections for the areas shown by the indicators of the top view.
These indicators may be moved around using the [©][ª][§][¨] keys, to display the different sections of the part. The CNC shows dynamically the new section being selected.
The indicators may be moved at any time even while simulating the program.
"XY" - "XZ" - "YZ" graphics
It displays the tool paths in the XY, XZ or YZ plane.
"Combined" graphics
It divides the display area in four quadrants and displays the tool path corresponding to each plane XY, XZ, YZ and to the 3D view.
"Solid 3D" Graphics
It shows a 3D view of the part being simulated. Starting out with a 3D block which is "machined" as the program is simulated.
