Before inputting a new program, any error messages recorded in memory

 

should be cleared. It is assumed here that the causes of any of the errors for

 

which error messages appear have already been taken care of. If the buzzer

 

sounds when an attempt is made to clear an error message, eliminate the

 

cause of the error, and then clear the error message. (Refer to Section 5 Test

 

Runs and Error Processing for troubleshooting information.)
