Match cycles
Cycle changes are not monitored by the simulation.
They are either copied automatically into the simulation as required
(PRELOAD/CYCLES=0) or copied in their entirety into the simulation when the
simulation starts up.
If a cycle is changed, it must be copied into the simulation using the "Match cycles"
softkey. Only cycles that have changed since they were last accessed are copied
into the simulation (along with newly imported cycles).
Cycles in the simulation that have since been deleted are deleted from the
simulation. If an automatic cycle interface is not used, the simulation must be
restarted.
Match setup data
The following data selection can be used to load data from the active file system in
the NC into the simulation:
• R parameters (RPA)
• User data (GUD)
• Global user data
• Work offsets (UFR)
• Global work offsets
• Setting data (SEA)
• Global setting data
• Axis-specific setting data
• Protection zones (PRO)
• Sag/angularity (CEC)
The data can be selected in any combination. The channels are selected using
softkeys (if there is more than one channel for simulation); the current channel is
offered as default.
Channel-specific data are only offered if the selected channel is present on the
NCK.
The selected data are copied into corresponding files in the data management
system in \DP.DIR\SIM.DIR using the "OK" softkey and loaded into the simulation.
Existing files are overwritten without prompting.
If data are selected for all channels, any associated channel-specific files that are
present are deleted; channel-specific files are always created or overwritten.
Before the data are loaded into the simulation, a "channel reset" is performed for
the simulation.
If an error occurs when copying from the NCK, the transfer can be repeated or
aborted (Abort/Repeat dialog box). If an error occurs when loading into the
simulation or a simulation alarm is triggered, the transfer is aborted.
Pressing the "OK" softkey saves the current data selection and displays it again the
next time the dialog box is opened.
