MANUBATCH:
The “Manubatch” or “manual batch” feature allows you to program the number of sheets you would like to
process in a set. When the set is complete, the folder will stop and automatically reset the batch count to the
previously set number of sheets. It will then fold the next set when the “Start/Stop” button is pressed.
AUTOBATCH TM :
“Autobatch” or “automatic batch” allows you to batch count with automated features. In the Autobatch mode
you can program the number of sheets you would like to process in a set, the number of sets you would like
and the delay between each set. For example: you can program 10 sheets to be pulled to create a set, then
program 100 sets to be processed with a 3 second time delay between each set.
