SYNRAD FH Series Flyer Operator’s Manual Version 3.4

Introduction
loads a master file on boot-up. This Master Control File (MCF) is read once, only on boot-up, and con-
figures Flyer to mark multiple files (previously stored in the Filestore or on a network share) in a user-con-
trolled sequence determined by input bit status. If required, you can monitor cycle time and mark progress
information from WinMark Pro through a USB or Ethernet connection. Except for starting/ending mark
sessions and exiting stand-alone operation, WinMark has no other control functionality.
Supported functions
In stand-alone mode, Flyer supports many, but not all, of the functions available under WinMark control.
Before developing mark files for stand-alone operation, refer to Table 4 -1. It lists major categories of
sup-ported features for Flyer stand-alone operation. Check the WinMark Pro web site at http://
winmark.com/products/winmark_firmware.html for firmware updates that may add additional
functionality.
