Operation
3.1 Introduction
The CI-100 Indexer can be operated using the front panel switches to move to a
discrete pocket, or to sweep within a continuous (i.e., banana) pocket. Pocket
home for each pocket can also be set from the front panel.
The CI-100 can also be operated remotely (Auto mode) using the rear panel digital
I/O or RS-232 communications. The rear panel also provides switches for setting
pocket configuration and other movement options.
In addition to pre-defined configurations, the CI-100 can store a custom
configuration. This custom configuration allows the user to place discrete and
continuous pockets at any point along the 360° rotational arc.
