Pause Points

Pause points are small green dots in the editor margin that allow you to pause the simulation at specific points in the program.

Overview

Pause points are small green dots in the editor margin that are used to make a pause during the simulation.

Setting Pause Points

You can add or remove pause points through a simple clicking mechanism. The process involves clicking on the margin area next to the code block where you want the simulation to pause.

Resuming Simulation

Once the simulation reaches a pause point, you have three options to continue:

1. Play button - Click the play button to resume simulation
2. Fast forward button - Click to advance quickly
3. Single-step button - Click to execute one instruction at a time

Using Pause Points

Pause points are useful for:

• Debugging CNC programs
• Verifying tool position at specific points
• Step-by-step analysis of complex operations
• Training and demonstration
