The machine manufacturer or user can add entries in the
SyncMarks_User section. It is also possible to add entries for cycles
in the section Old_or_User_Cycles_User. You can specify as many
entries as you want. See SEDITOR.INI or

Assignment with ini Files
Multi-channel step display is used for editing, navigating and time
optimizing multi-channel workpiece programs. The function is
available for multi-channel systems as an option: "Multi-channel
sequencer programming".
·
The individual programs for a workpiece are in step display
·
Channels were assigned via
- JOB list or
- START/INIT in a start program
·
The required coordination instruction was assigned to the
individual programs
Methods of activation:
- Workpiece is selected in workpiece directory WPD
- JOB list is selected
- <Workpiece name>.MPF
selected and Edit workpiece softkey is activated.
If the above mentioned conditions are met, each of the methods or
opening the start programs results in creation of a file within the
control for:
- Multi-channel program display and execution,
see purpose of application above
- Basic for step by step Simulation,
see Chapter 6 "Program simulation".
- Time computation for time proportional step display
Multi-channel step display is activated.
Time computation for the steps is based on the time acquisition for
individual instructions in the NC.
The time computation is activated in the Machine operating area
under program control.
