Duplicating
Over Blank
Columns
(Punching)
The
DUP
key
can be used
to
duplicate,
or verify-duplicate
blank columns,
//
the
same columns
are
blank
in
the
preceding
card.
If
there
is
no
card
immediately ahead
(for
example,
after
a
CLEAR
operation),
dup
operation
is
inhibited.
When
DUP
is
used, the action
is
faster
than
using
the spacebar. This action duplicates the data
from
output
to input
storage.
Verify Blanks
BLANK COLUMNS/LEFT ZERO CTRL
may
be
pressed to
space over
and
verify
blank columns.
Verifying
in
this
manner
is
much
faster
than
using the spacebar.
Every
column
is
verified
as a
blank; the
first
punched column
stops the operation.
(In
the
units position
of
a
programmed
LZ
verify
field,
the bar operates
as
LZ
CTRL
only.)
Multipunching
Two
or
more
digits,
or
any combination
not represented
by
a
key on
the
keyboard, can be
punched
in
one
column by
holding
down
MULT
PCH
while the
digit
keys
are pressed,
one
at
a
time;
release
MULT
PCH. The keyboard
is
automatically
shifted
to
numeric
when
MULT
PCH
is
pressed.
Note:
The
dash
key
provides an
11
-punch
when
MULT
PCH
is
used.
Alternate
Methods
for Providing
11 -punch Characters
Note:
On
the
IBM
129, the
numeric
11
-punch
(dash)
on
the
keyboard has been
replaced
by
the
-LZ
function; the
11-dash
is
therefore
available in
alpha
shift
only. Listed
below
are
other
methods
to
obtain the
11-dash, or
a
substitute
punch
and
graphic to
serve
the
same
purpose:
1
Use manual
or
programmed
alpha
shift
and
the
dash
key
to
obtain
an
1
1-dash
in
any
position.
2.
Press
the
MP
(multipunch)
key and
the
dash
key
to
obtain
an
1
1-dash
in
any
position.
3.
Change
to
program
level 0,
which
is
alpha,
and
the
dash
key
will
provide the
1
1-dash.
4.
Use any of
the following
numeric
special
characters
as
a
substitute for
the
1
1-dash.

Remember
that
the
setting
of
PRINT
in
punch
mode
controls printing for the record
being
keyed
into
input
storage.
The
PRINT
switch
setting
does not
affect
output
storage.
If
you
want
to print
on
correction-punched
cards
in verify
mode,
leave
PRINT
switch
ON.
Printing
cannot be
done on
cards
verified
without
errors— only
on
correction-
punched
cards.
Also
remember
that
all
program punchout
cards
are printed, regardless
of
the switch
setting.
If
a
program
card
without
printing
is
desired, either
key
it
from
the keyboard, or
duplicate
it
(with
PRINT
turned
OFF).
