4.8 Stop filling

When PF6 has completed the number of fills asked for in F6: it will stop automatically. If <GO> is
pressed again, PF6 will complete the programmed number of fills once more.

If you want to stop the filling before the programmed number has been completed, press <STOP>,
and PF6 will stop after completing the filling in progress.
The filling series can be completed by pressing <GO>.

If you want to stop IMMEDIATELY, such as in the middle of a fill, press <STOP> twice, and PF6 will
stop immediately.
The filling series can be completed by pressing <disp.>+<GO>, and the interrupted filling will be
included.

4.9 Used as a pump

PF6 can also be used as a pump.
In this case only velocity should be entered.

Start the pumping by pressing <pump>+<GO>.

PF6 will start and run the required number of revolutions per minute.
PF6 will pump at this velocity until stopped by pressing <STOP>.

4.10 Used with a bottle handling system

PF6 can also be used together with a bottle handling system like FF20/FF15 from Flexicon.
When PF6 is integrated in an automatic bottle handling system, it is important to observe the
following:

The batch size in case of running with a bottle handling system must be set to 1.
The PF6 should be in dispense mode before starting the filling sequence.
The Go signal which activates filling should be generated by the bottle handling system.
The Go signal should be inserted into PF6 via External Go port (see section 10.1)
