as a length, to use more than 1 decimal point, etc.)

In general, an
<ENTER>
key press advances to
next parameter, a
<RUN>
key press jumps over
items on the current screen and advances to the
next screen or menu and an
<ESC/PAUSE>
key
press returns back to the previous screen. Also,
when editing an existing batch parameter, an
<ENTER>
key press is necessary to re-write a
new value into memory. A
<RUN>
key press sim-
ply advances to the next screen without over writ-
ing the old value.
Once the feed rate is decided, press the
<ENTER>
key to advance to the batch start screen:
JOG
- JOG
CUT
- CUT
MAIN MENU - ENTER
START
- RUN
This menu allows several options: to run a test
piece, to cut a piece, to enter the newly created
batch parameters into memory without running the
batch and to run the batch. If the operator chooses
to run some test pieces before commencing the
batch, press the
<JOG>
key and the manual pro-
cess screen comes up:
MANUAL PROCESS
LENGTH: 0.0
ABORT
-ESC
This screen looks like the manual mode screen
but has a subtle difference. When the
<JOG>
or
<+>
keys are pressed, the wire or tubing will trans-
port the cut length parameter. If 5.0" was entered
as a cut length, 5" of material would move through
the machine and 5.0 would be displayed for a
length. Another
<JOG>
key press would again ad-
vance 5 inches of material through the machine
and 10.0 would be displayed as the length. When
the
<CUT>
key is pressed, the cut mechanism
activates and the length is reset to zero.
If the start option is selected (a
<RUN>
key press),
a batch run screen is displayed:
PIECES XXXX #1
PIECES LEFT XXXX
ESC TO STOP/BREAK
RUN TO CONTINUE
The first line indicates the quantity parameter and
the current batch number and the second line in-
dicates a running count of the pieces left to pro-
cess. The pieces left count is decremented after
each piece is cut. When a batch is successfully
completed, a batch completion screen appears:
RUN COMPLETE #1
PIECES LEFT 0
PUSH ANY KEY
This screen indicates a successful completion of
a batch and the batch number. A key press brings
the main batch select menu back to the screen.
