Entering Program Names
To enter a program name, do the following:
1. Press the softkey {PRGRAM MANAGE}. This calls up the program
directory, which lists subprograms first, then programs by
alphabetical order.
2. Type in the name of a new program or one already listed. You cannot
enter spaces or special characters.
3. Press {EDIT}, which initiates the editing mode for the program
selected.
Important: When the control reads a program from tape, the O word is the
program name. If there is no O word, the control interprets the first
sequence number as the program name.

You can assign each block in a part program a sequence number to
distinguish one block from another. Sequence numbers begin with an N
address followed by a one to five digit numeric value.
You can assign sequence numbers at random to specific blocks or to all
blocks. You can call blocks assigned sequence numbers later by
designating their sequence number. Sequence numbers are necessary to
make program jumps and to specify a block for paramacro calls and
returns.
