To activate a part program, it must be selected as described on page 7-6
for selecting a program.
To select a program for automatic execution, follow these steps:
Important: Consider the following when selecting a program:
The control does not allow the selection of a program for
execution if that program file is still open for editing. See page
5-15 on how to exit the edit mode.
Your system installer can write PAL to allow some other method
of part program selection. See the documentation prepared by
your system installer for additional information.
Before selecting a part program to activate, the input device must
have been previously selected as described on page 7-5. The
default condition is to select the part program out of control
memory.
If a program was previously activated and not deactivated, the
control does not allow you to select a different part program. If
you want to select a different part program, you must first
deactivate the active program as described on page 7-9.
To select a program for automatic execution:
1. Press the {PRGRAM MANAGE} softkey. Figure 7.2 appears.
