<p>Each cycle chart's header carries a <strong>value boundary</strong> — <em>Auto</em>, or a fixed ± bound that pins the

Cycle carries a frame switch instead — <strong>To workpiece / program</strong> or <strong>To tool / tool-running</strong> —

share one mark in spindle angle; the two sensor charts share another in seconds. The mark survives a
switch between Line and Dartboard and a change of selected step. It also reaches the CWE panel: the
cutter in that view rotates to the angle you clicked, so &ldquo;the force peaked here&rdquo; and &ldquo;this is what
