Creating procedures
File System
The machine-specific procedures that are created by Lockout PRO are saved as stand-alone files using the .lop
file extension. These files contain the entire procedure, including the images that you have inserted within them.
These files can be saved to any drive available to your computer. They can be moved, copied, deleted, etc. in the
same manner as any other Windows file.
Creating a new procedure
To create a new procedure, select the New command from the File menu on the Menu Bar, and then select the
format that you would like to use for the procedure, either Short Form or Long Form. You can also click on the
New File icon in the Toolbar. This will create a new procedure using the same form that you worked with last.
The procedure will be opened in a new window and a tab for it will be added to the Window Tab Bar.
