STOP Commands
Use the STOP commands to pause and change parameters from the
middle of a Task (job). By using these convenient commands, you can
suspend a running Task and continue later from the same point without
having to exit and restart. Unlike the firmware keys, STOP commands do
not need to be called from a specific 2500 menu.
To use this set of commands perform the following steps:
1. Pause the 2500’s Task processing by pressing
STOP
.
2. Select a parameter.
3. Change the parameter’s value.
Press
START
to continue running the Task.
Most of the commands described below display a numeric value that
represents the current parameter setting. The display’s messages prompt
you to use the
