Detailed operating instructions
Should there be a risk of data loss, for instance when the present plate has been changed and a new
plate is to be read without having saved the changes, you will be warned as follows:
Fig. 21: Warning when changes have not been saved
The same warning will be displayed when you are about to leave the programme without previously
saving your changes.
5.17 Marking a rating plate
After having generated a plate, you will surely want to mark it repeatedly.
In order to be able to mark a plate, data describing the image of the plate must be transmitted to the
controller of the Impact Marker. The controller is in a position to save data for
one sign in its own
memory.
After having transmitted data of a plate to the controller once, the plate (and only this one) may be
marked as often as you wish without having to transmit new data to the controller, even when the
controller is switched off in between. This will, however, also mean that when a series of rating plates
having continuous numbers is to be marked, the data of the plates must be retransmitted to the
controller of the Impact Marker after each marking cycle.
