However, if desired, a UDE definition can be made for this UDE in the CAM settings section within MANUSpost Developer (can also be defined as Custom UDE). In this case, the user can make additional customizations on this UDE, create events, scripts and commands that are linked to this UDE, and use them.

What Does it Affect/Change Inside MANUSpost Developer?

It calls the “Format Program Pause” command in MANUSpost Developer and prints the expressions defined inside this command to the NC code.
