and
Operator.
Administrator
mode
allows
access
to
all
parameters
so
that
Tasks
can
be
created.
Operator
mode
(the

is
used
during
a
production

high
throughput
are
most
important.
From
the
DOS

start
TaskLink
in
Administrator
mode
by
entering
tla
on
the
PC.
(Enter
tl
to
start
TaskLink

level
generated
by
an
operating
2500
can
exceed
70
dB.
Long
term
exposure

of
noise
could
cause
hearing
loss.
Personnel

should
wear
hearing
protection.
