3.3 MDI
This function is not available in the "program simulation" mode. Besides, if a program is being
executed, it must be interrupted in order to access this function.
It is possible to execute any block (ISO or high level) and it provides information on the corresponding
format via the softkeys.
Once a block has been edited and after pressing the [START] key, the CNC will execute
this block without leaving this operating mode.
History of executed blocks
From the MDI mode, pressing the [] or [] key will open a window that shows the last 10 instructions
that have been executed. This window resizes itself to fit the number of instructions that have been
saved. To execute or modify an MDI line that has been executed earlier, proceed as follows:
1. Open the window that shows the last MDI instructions:
If the cursor is at the beginning of the line, press []. Pressing [] moves the cursor to the
end of the line.
If the cursor is at the end of the line, press []. Pressing [] moves the cursor to the beginning
of the line.
If the cursor is neither at the beginning nor at the end of the line, both keys [] and [] open
the window that shows the last MDI instructions.
2. Use the [] or [] key to select the desired instruction.
Press [START] to execute the selected instruction.
Press [ENTER] to modify the selected instruction. Once the instruction has been modified,
press [START] to execute it.
An MDI instruction is saved only if it is correct and if it is not the same as the previous one on the
list. The instructions are kept saved even after turning the unit off.
