16.4.3 Creating a new Pre-Run program
Create a Pre-Run program following the same procedure described in “16.3.3. Creating a
new time program” in “16.3 Time Program”.
The parameters are equivalent to those shown in “16.3.5. Time Program Parameters”
except for “STOP”. The “STOP” parameter is described below.
Up to 100 lines are available for the Pre-Run program.
The possible Pre-Run program execution time ranges from 0.00 to 9999.00 minutes.
In the following case, “AUTO” of the “STOP” parameter is carried out when the pre-run program is fin-
ished.
• There is no “STOP” parameter in the pre-run program.
• Running the Batch Schedule.
16.4.4 Editing a Pre-Run program
To change the contents of the existing Pre-Run program, move the cursor using the [ △ ] and
[ ▽ ] keys to the program line to be edited and press the [ENTER] key.
To change only the time, enter the new time from the edit screen and press [Finish] (PF
menu).
To change the other parameters, move the cursor and make the changes from the edit
screen, and then press [Finish] (PF menu).
To cancel the edits and restore the original time program, press [Cancel] (PF menu) before
pressing [Finish] (PF menu).
16.4.5 After Pre-Run program is finished
