 This function is similar to the one described above, however, the program is stopped automatically due to a break in the plasma torch arc. The program can be resumed by pressing the Run button after eliminating the source of the break (by cleaning the plasma torch, replacing the nozzle, etc).
-===Drafting mode===
+===Simulation mode===
-By pressing a button on the remote control or on the screen of the control system, the system can be set to a drafting mode. This will ignore the start commands for cutting, initial positioning and firing cycles. When launching the control program, the machine will only perform idle movements within the program (movements at the working cutting speed or accelerated movements at the idle stages speed are also possible).

 ===Running the program backwards and forwards===
-In drafting mode, one can move within the program both forwards and backwards. This is extremely useful in case the operator needs to cut out a part from the few remaining bits of material, and an idle run is necessary to check that the part can fit in the space that remains before the actual cutting starts.

   * A heavy sheet that has been put down slightly asymmetrically, with the cutting map having to be adjusted to take this sheet rotation into account
   * Using the last remaining bits of material that require the part to be rotated or mirrored in order to fit it in
