Machining processing system and help processing method

A help processing method employed in a machining processing system provided with a machining processing apparatus configured to support machining processing for a workpiece according to a plurality of setting processes made by a user,

• wherein the machining processing apparatus comprises:
• a processing unit;
• a machining unit configured to support machining processing;
• and
• an input/output unit configured to support input/output processing,
• wherein the processing unit comprises a control unit, an interface processing unit, and a help processing unit,
• wherein the interface processing unit operates according to control of the control unit, displays an interface screen via the input/output unit, and makes an instruction to the control unit according to an operation by the user,
• wherein the help processing unit provides a help display including a first display region, a second display region, and a third display region,
• wherein the first display region displays each step of a setting process for machining processing,
• wherein the second display region displays items included in each step;
• wherein the third display region displays an explanation for each item,
• wherein, when an object on an interface screen is to be explained in the third display region, the help processing unit instructs the control unit to display an interface screen including the object to be explained,
• wherein the help processing unit does not instruct the machining unit to perform machining processing,
• wherein the control unit controls the machining unit of the machining processing apparatus according to an instruction from the interface processing unit,
• and wherein, upon receiving an instruction from the help processing unit to change the interface screen, the control unit controls the interface processing unit to change the interface screen.
