"<" serves also for shifting the

chain of characters to chose from,

i.e. the text cursor is shifted one

Initialization

The 766 IC Sample Processor is

initialized with the key

followed by .

A method in the working memory

remains unchanged. The rack and

the lift are run to the initial position.

Text entry

In a menu or sequence line in

which entry of text is required, (e.g.

method name), text edit mode is

activated with ">". Existing text

remains in this event and the text

cursor is set at the end of the ex-

isting character string.

">" serves also for shifting the

chain of characters to chose from,

i.e. the text cursor is shifted one

place to the right for each instance

(see section 4.1.6).

Set end mark

For test purposes an

command can be placed at any

line desired in a sequence. This

has the effect that the sequence is

only executed up to this end mark.

START

Start a method

The key starts a

method. Starting is only possible

when the IC Sample Processor is in

the normal state, i.e. when

'ready'

is shown in the display.

When starting a sample series, the

sample counter is set to 0.

When is pressed after

an interruption (), the

sequence is continued with the next

command line.

Trace function

During editing of a sequence, the

command defined in the command

line can be directly executed with

the key.

A sequence can therefore be tested

from start to finish (or in parts) in

single steps ("tracing").
