SINUMERIK 840D sl Operation/Programming ShopTurn (BAT) – 08/2005 Edition
For all three variants, the following views are available to you:

3-window view

Side view

Front view

Volume model
The traverse paths for the tools are shown in color:
Red line = tool is moving at rapid traverse
Green line = tool is moving at machining feedrate
In all views, a clock is displayed during graphical processing. The
displayed machining time (in hours/minutes/seconds) indicates the
approximate time that would actually be required to execute the
machining program on the machine (incl. tool change).
If a program is interrupted during simultaneous recording, the clock
stops.
In addition, the current axis coordinates and the program block that is
currently executing are also displayed.
The active tool with the cutting edge number and feedrate are also
displayed in the simulation.
Transformations are displayed differently during simulation and
simultaneous recording:

Coordinate transformations (translation, scaling, ...) are displayed
as programmed.

In the graphical display, zero-point offsets (G54, ...) only lead to
the offsetting of the zero-point in the Z direction.
If you open or close the collet of the main spindle or counter-spindle
during programming via M-functions, ShopTurn can only display this
graphically if the M-functions are assigned via machine data cycles.
Please also refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
