If a new card format is used which slightly deviates from a standard card format
shown in the separate card catalogue, for example a card format with different
column width, you need not to program the complete card format.
You can copy a stored card format with the command "Copy" and then alter all the
values which are different to the stored one.
For further information about the command "Copy", please read Appendix A "Define
your own card format - Adjust a standard format".
Attention
If the card format is changed, the following parameter values will
be erased:
- Time values for column change and card lift
- Time values for ribbon colour change

Confirm selection with "

".
If you have already been using a standard format and you want to alter only some
values of this format, we recommend to copy this standard format and alter the
values in the copied format. All values of the standard format remain.
This proceeding is only possible with standard formats.
Hint
If you select a standard card format and do not alter any settings,
the values for "period duration", "type of recorder", "current
week" and "number of lines and columns" cannot be changed.
All default values can be checked with "E". If you do not want to
check the default values, press "S" for next menu item: "Print
Format".
If you want to record the parameters of the programming on a time card you can start
here. Insert the card until the stop before pressing key "S".
