5) Use pocket number in film program.

When programming film parameters, use the pocket select parameter to position
the indexer to the appropriate pocket. Also make sure the correct map is selected,
the map that is configured as above (in step 4).

Special note for 8 pocket systems: On the SRT422, pocket 8 is displayed on the
front panel of the SRT422 as pocket 0. Also, if selecting pocket 0 in the film
program, the indexer will position to pocket 8. Therefore, in the film program,
pocket 0 and pocket 8 will both run the indexer to pocket 8. For 4 pocket systems,
selecting pocket 0 or pocket 4 in the film program will position the indexer to
pocket 4.

6) Make sure indexer is set to “auto”



Once the STC is configured, the film program automatically selects the appropriate
pocket based on the film program. When the film begins, the film state will go to
“INDEXING” after “XTAL VFY”, and the STC will command the indexer to go to the
selected pocket. The STC will remain in the INDEXING state until the indexer indicates
it has successfully reached the selected pocket (via the pocket_good wire). While in the
INDEXING state, the phase timer counts down until the indexer reaches the pocket, or
until the timer reaches zero, whichever occurs first. If the indexer reaches the pocket in
time, the film program automatically advances on to the rises and soaks, etc. If the timer
reaches zero, which means the indexer did not get to the pocket in time, then the film
program is halted with a “STOP: INDEXR” message.
