5.5 Initialization
INITIALIZATION
is a preparatory phase that must be carried out when the machine is turned on.
If the computer is turned off and back on again, initialization is not strictly necessary, even if required
by the software; it is solely at the discretion of the operator.
DANGER
If the Autocap is open, initialization automatically closes it.
Moreover, initialization must be carried out in the following cases:
At the beginning of each work shift, even if only the computer had been shut down.
•
To send new operating parameters set via the management software.

For more information about the Initialization function, refer to the software user’s manual.
