CANCEL
OPTIONAL With this key activated, the program will stop executing when the
STOP control sees the optional stop command (M01).
SINGLE This function is used to check the program, block by block. The

AUTO during AUTO mode. The procedure on how to carry out this
MANUAL manual intervention function is described in detail in the Operation

RESTART operation due to a tool breakage or other problem, the sequence restart
button is used to resume the program after the necessary measures have

elapsed (three to six minutes) before the power is turned off the control will not retain the condi-
tion of the key just pressed.
