• Press DETAILS ( Fig. 54 ) to access the PROGRAMMING menu ( Fig. 56 ).

steps is completely empty.

tions will be used.

below and highlighted in blue/red.
• The total number of steps (new
programs automatically start from
number “1“) is automatically in-
creased by 1.
The DURATION, EXACT and DIP
columns already contain standard
settings (2) which must be entered
depending on the program step.
• Code and name of the program (1)
are located above the table con-
taining the program steps.

order in which they are supposed
to be carried out.
