Configuration:
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
Bit: Type the number of this bit, in the binary number scheme, to select jobs.
Mode: All JOB SELECT BITs must be the same mode, modes cannot be mixed.

1 – Creates a number equivalent to the weighted value of this binary bit(s) and adds the value of one
(1) to that number.
Spindle: Spindle: Type the spindle number in which the job is to be selected.
