The top line indicates the number of kits completed
thus far and the identifying kit number. The sec-
ond line indicates which batch number is currently
executing (on smaller, faster pieces this screen
will quickly update as the batch pieces are output-
ted). The third line displays the number of pieces
left to complete the current batch. Once the kit is
completed, the machine waits for input from the
operator:
# OF KITS 1
PRESS ESC TO BREAK
PRESS RUN TO PROCEED
In our example above, a kit consists of a 6.0" piece,
three 8.0" pieces and a 2.0" piece. Therefore, in
the example above, 5 pieces would output and then
wait for operator input from the keypad. The auto-
mode is quite similar to the manual mode with the
exceptions that there is no pause between kits and
that a running count of the kits left until completion
is displayed:
# OF KITS 0

Where the kits left indicator displays kits to be pro-
cessed. The quantity of kits must be entered each
