is resident in control memory), or key-in the program name (if

5. To scroll the part program blocks, hold down the [SHIFT] key, then
press the up or down cursor keys. If the program is being displayed
from a peripheral device only the forward direction may be used to
display the program.
6. To end the displaying operation, press the exit { Ý } softkey. The
display returns to the program directory screen.
You can assign a short comment on the program directory screens to each
individual program. These comments are used to identify a program when
it is selected for automatic operation or to be edited.
Important: These are not normally the same as a comment block made
within a part program. Comment blocks are described on page 10-9. If a
comment block is assigned as the first block of the part program, it will be
displayed on the program directory screen as a comment. Any other
comment blocks have no affect on the comment display.
