Run
This key will return the MD.2 to normal operation after you have used other keypad features.
Load
This key is used to load medication cups into the unit (after they have been appropriately filled
by the caregiver). After pressing this key, the medication cup cylinders move to the correct
position and the machine voices, "Cups must be loaded upside down". This allows the caregiver
to begin loading the machine with cups. The display on the front of the machine and the MD.2
voice instructs the caregiver as to how many cups to load into the unit for each day, after the
dosing schedule has been programmed into the MD.2.
