ENDSEQ Initialize Changer
• The sample changer is
initialized with the
<ENDSEQ> key followed
by <ENTER>. Any periph-
eral instruments that might
be connected (for ex. Do-
simats, Dosinos) are not
affected by this.
• A method in the working
memory remains un-
changed. The rack and the
lift (in the 2-tower model,
both lifts) are run to the
initial position.
Text entry
• In a menu or sequence line
in which entry of text is re-
quired, (for ex. method
name), text edit mode is
activated with ">".
• Existing text remains in this
event and the text cursor is
set at the end of the exist-
ing character string.
• ">" serves also for shifting
the chain of characters to
chose from, i.e. the text
cursor is shifted one place
to the right for each in-
stance. See page 79f.
Set end mark
• For test purposes an
<ENDSEQ> command can
be placed at any line de-
sired in a sequence. This
has the effect that the se-
quence is only executed up
to this end mark.
START
Start a Method
• The <START> key starts a
method. Starting is only
possible when the changer
is in the normal state, i.e.
when 'ready' is shown in
the display.
• When starting a sample
series, the sample counter
is set to 0.
• When <START> is
pressed after an interrup-
tion (<HOLD>), the se-
quence is continued with
the next command line.
Trace function
• During editing of a se-
quence, the command de-
fined in the command line
can be directly executed
with the <START> key.
• A sequence can therefore
be tested from start to fin-
ish (or in parts) in single
steps ("tracing").
