SINUMERIK 840D/840Di/810D Operation/Programming ShopMill (BAS) – 10.04 Edition
You use the G code editor when you want to change the sequence of
program blocks within a G code program, delete program blocks or
copy program blocks from one program to another.
When you want to change G code in a program that you are currently
executing, you can only change the G code blocks that have not yet
been executed. These blocks are highlighted.
The following functions are available in the G code editor:
• Select
You can select any G code.
• Copy/paste
You can copy and paste G code within a program or between
different programs.
• Cut
You can cut and therefore delete any G code. However, the G
code remains in the buffer, so you can still paste it in somewhere
else.
• Search/replace
In a G code program, you can search for a specific character string
and replace it with a different one.
• To start/end
You can jump easily to the start or end of the G code program.
•
Number
If you insert a new or copied G code block between two existing G
code blocks, ShopMill automatically assigns a new block number.
This block number may be higher than the one in the following
block. The "Renumber" function is used to renumber the G code
blocks in ascending order.
