Additional information
1. In order to reduce the input effort when the blank type is repeatedly
changed, the blank dimensions and the display area are compared
internally when the settings are saved.
2. A suitable image of the NC-active data INITIAL.INI and TO_INI.INI
under DH\DP.DIR\SIM.DIR is required for simulation with the
option "Tool monitoring". Default settings for the tool management
are taken from the supplementary tool data
..\mmc2\dp\sim\to_addon.ini. Tools which are not loaded in the
active magazine image (from TO_INI.INI) can therefore be called
during simulation if necessary.
3. In simulation "without tool data", using standard cycles results in
the representation of the final contour derived from the available
cycle parameters.
4. Simulation "without model" and/or "without tool data" both limits the
required graphic memory and increases the simulation speed.
Other settings can only be displayed/hidden if you enter a valid
password via the Options softkey.
Depth range across which the available VGA system colors for
displaying depth information are distributed
(default range = blank thickness).
The rounding inaccuracy in defining depth of color is 10
• Tool diameter: Tool diameter used for milling simulation with
default tool (end mill/drill).
• IPO mm or inch: Approximation precision of simulation interpolator
in mm or inches depends on actual measuring system.
• F override %. Setting the simulation feed
% setting options: %1 to %500 (from V06.12.13 < 10 %)
- Increment of 10 with "+" or "-" key
- Increment of 50 with "Cursor right" or "Cursor left"
- Max/Min value with "Cursor up" or "Cursor down".
- Default value 100 with "Toggle" key
