(2-punch)
in
column
81.
The
error card
may
be
discarded,
or retained,
at
the discretion
of
the
user,
for error
analysis,
audit
trail,
etc.
On
completion of
verification,
if
punchout,
or
punchout
and
reset,
is
desired for
an
additional
total
card, clear the
card bed,
change
to
punch mode,
select
the
program
level
for
the
desired
result,
and
register
a card.
Skip through
the
record
in storage (or
key
desired
indicative data);
the data
(or spaces)
and
the
total
is
punched
out
into
the blank
card.
In
verify
mode,
fields
programmed
for
automatic
skip
and
accumulate
(with the
AUTO
SKIP/DUP
switch
ON)
accu-
mulate
in
the
programmed
accumulator. This could occur
during
manual
verifying,
or
(if
each
individual
field
is
programmed
for
auto
skip) in a
semi-automatic
mode.
Production
statistics
cards,
for
example, could be
accumu-
lated
at
the
end
of
the day, using a
suitable
program
card,
to
obtain
a daily total
of
cards processed
by
operators or
for
all
machines.
Miscellaneous Considerations
The
user
is
responsible for controls
and
checks
on
his
procedures,
for reconciliation
of
balance
totals
and
for
adjustments
by
debit or
credit
procedures. This ensures
batch
integrity
and
validity
of
accumulated
data.
Power-on
reset
causes
all
accumulators
to
reset
to zeros;
therefore,
be
sure to
punch
out
any
desired
totals
before
turning
power
off
for
any
reason.
At
the
conclusion
of
a
program
load
or
program
punchout
operation, the
machine
is
placed
in
column
01 of
the
program
level
loaded
or
punched, even
if
column
01
is
programmed
for
auto
skip or
auto dup.
If
column
01
is
programmed
for
an
accumulator
total
punchout,
the
machine
is
set
to
the
first
column
after
the
punchout
field,
when
the
program
load or
program punchout
operation
is
completed.
Accumulate
total fields
are
always processed
automatically
in
input
storage,
and
the operator
cannot
do
any
operation
in
the
programmed
total
field.
If
it
is
necessary to operate
on
those
columns
for
any
reason,
change
to
a
program
level
that
does not have an accumulate
total
programmed
in
those columns.
Figure 12
shows
the
effect
of combinations of accumu-
late
and
automatic
skip
or
dup
programs,
and
use
of
REL,
for
accumulator
operations
in
both punch and
verify
modes.

For
