In order for the job notes to be saved after editing, the current job must be stored. Job storage is
described in Section 4.5.1.

Section 5.5.4 Auxiliary Communications

The AUXILIARY COMM softkey will provide access to communication options. These options
include communication with electronic servo feeds, auxiliary equipment (such as PLCs), a laptop
interface for downloading messages, and a network interface. A separate manual will be provided when
these options are supplied. See the manual pertaining to the particular device that is connected for
communication.

Section 5.5.5 LOGOUT Softkey

Selecting the LOGOUT softkey will remove access control from the current user. If a user has logged in
using the password system, this user will retain access control until the user is logged out. Log out can
be either manual or automatic. A user can be manually logged out by using the LOGOUT Softkey.
Automatic log out is described in Section 3.

Section 5.6 Job Setups (Storage and Recall)

From the Main Menu, Figure 5.1, pressing the JOB SETUPS softkey accesses the Jobs menu, Figure 5.9
and allows the user to access the internal file system of the operator terminal. The parameters for all job
related settings for standard and optional functions for the OmniLink II Press and Automation Control
can be stored once initially determined and recalled each time the job is run in the press. This allows
paperless record keeping of PLS/ Logic Module settings, Serial Feed Interface settings, Tonnage and
Signature Monitor settings, Die Protection settings, Analog Process Monitor settings, Automatic Setup
Module settings, etc.. This feature can give consistent setups of the press, auxiliary equipment, and
process monitoring items. It can also save a tremendous amount of time in setting up a complex
production system.
