• To start a program, press START.

A program can either be started immediately
or at a later point in time using the delay function.
All corresponding parameters are displayed, such as number of baskets, starting position (sta-
tion number), vacuum on/off, and infiltration time of the basket in the starting container. There-
fore, check the parameters on display and decide if you actually wish to start the displayed
program. Otherwise select another program.
The cursor blinks at the program number data entry position. For a program to be selectable for
use, at least one infiltration time for one processing station must have been set.
