SET AUTORUN Special Function

The set autorun function allows you to set the autorun message number. If
the power to the DL5 is interrupted while in the run mode, the DL5 will
automatically enter the run mode when the power is reapplied. The autorun
message is the first message that the DL5 displays when the DL5 enters the
run mode. After the autorun message is displayed the DL5 resumes normal
run mode operation. If you press the [Y] and [Retrn] keys in response to the
SET AUTORUN? prompt, the DL5 displays:

Note: X is the value of the last message number edited.

You can now enter the message number of the message that you want
displayed when the DL5 is powered up in the autorun mode. Enter the
autorun message number (0–999) and then press the [Retrn] key. If no
autorun message is desired, enter a 0 (zero). After entering an autorun
message number, the DL5 displays the RUN? prompt.
