6.3.3.5 

Automatic program rotation 

With the automatic program rotation, several programs can be executed 
directly one after the other. 
•  Activate the "Program rotation" function in the "Setup" menu 

 

 

Fig. 29: Program rotation function 

 

When a program is loaded while the program rotation function is active, this 
program will be used as the start program for the rotation. After the 
completion of the program, the next program on the program list will be 
loaded automatically. The rotation continues up to the next empty storage 
location and then restarts from the beginning (see the following illustration). 

Example 1:

  Loading of Test04 

Rotation: Test04, Test05, Test06, Test04,... 

Example 2: 

 Loading of Test05 

Rotation: Test05, Test06, Test05,... 

 

 

Fig. 30: Automatic program rotation 

 

While the program rotation function is active, the arrow " " is displayed in 
the program line in the "Standard" menu.
