OPERATING OVERLAYS

OVERVIEW

The Power Wave is controlled by a panel of keys (key- pad) located on the front of the machine. The opera- tor can access controls by placing an overlay over the keys.

An OVERLAY is a special plastic sheet with a number of keys and symbols printed on one side and a bar code printed on the other. See Figure B.2. The print- ed keys allow the operator to communicate with the machine for a specific set of functions. The bar code allows the machine to identify the overlay.

Before the Power Wave is turned ON, the operator selects the desired overlay and mounts it in the over- lay frame on the front of the machine. Then, when the machine is turned ON, it reads the overlay bar code and configures the machine accordingly, allowing the operator to access only certain keys. The machine must be powered up each time an overlay is changed.
