When a drill cycle has been selected, the Conversational Data Input
display provides a help screen graphic with each data input dialogue.
This display shown is typical for counterbore data input.
Touch the name of the data to be input. This will open the dialogue
menu showing the necessary fields that require data.
Drilling cycles are modeled after programming the desired
cycle. The X - Y locations must be programed. This can be
done directly with X and Y data, a bolt hole, or linear
pattern. When done programming X - Y locations,
program a Drill Off block.
