• In screen forms of drilling and milling cycles, certain
parameters may be input as absolute or incremental
values. The abbreviation ABS for absolute and INC
for incremental values is displayed behind the input
field. You may switch between them with the
"Alternative" soft key. This setting will remain with
the next call of these screen forms.
• With the MMC 103 you may display additional
information on the individual cycle parameters by
means of the online help. If the cursor is placed
on a parameter and the help icon
displayed on the bottom right-hand side of the
screen, the help function can be activated.
By pressing the info key the
parameter explanation is
displayed from the Cycle
