Stopping After the Current Panel
To stop the machine when the panel currently being produced is finished and
unloaded to the next machine, use the [Finish Current Panels] command at the [Pro-
duction] screen. Finishing current panel ... displays in the information bar while the
processing for the for the [Finish Current Panels] command is being carried out. The
START button is enabled when this operation is complete. Press the START button to
restart production. The operation can be canceled by pressing the [Finish Current
Panels] command again.
Note: This function applies to panels currently on the main conveyor. If there are no panels on the
main conveyor, and the advance pick-up of parts has not begun, the machine stops before
loading another panel to the main conveyor.
Stopping After All Panels are Complete
The [Finish All Panels] command allows you to finish all panels currently loaded on
the machine, including panels currently being assembled, and panels held by the in-
carrier (the carrier loader on the in-conveyor side of the machine). The machine stops
loading panels from the previous machine in the line, when this command is executed.
When all these panels are complete and unloaded, the machine stops (and the START
button is enabled).
The [Finish All Panels] command is available during automatic operation. Press this
command to enable the START button, and press START to begin the operation (Com-
pleting and unloading all current panels ... displays at the information bar).
The operation can be canceled by pressing the [Finish All Panels] command again.
The START button is enabled again when the operation is complete. This time, press
the START button to restart production.

4.1.10Loading and Unloading Panels
Automatic Panel Conveyance
The machine automatically loads and unloads panels during production. When pro-
duction is started, the machine loads panels to the main conveyor (XY-table) for
assembly. When assembly is complete, the panels are unloaded and conveyed to the
next machine. A carrier loader system is used on CP-842E/842ME to reduce loading
and unloading time. The action of the carrier loader system is shown below.
Loading and Unloading Panels Manually
The operator can unload or load panels using commands at the machine.
Procedure
1 Press [Panel Loader] at the [Main] screen. The [Panel Loader] screen displays.

loaded at one time by selecting [Load Two Panels].
3 Press START to commence.
Loading/unloading is carried out, and the machine awaits further input when
the operation is finished. To return to the [Main] screen, press [Close].
Clearing All Panels from the Machine (Flush Out)
The [Flush Out] command allows users to unload all panels currently held in the
machine, and prevent new panels from being loaded.
Procedure
1 At the [Main] screen, press [Panel Loader] to display the [Panel Loader] screen.
2 Press [Flush Out] to enable the START button, and press START to start flush
out.
The machine unloads all panels currently on the machine, and awaits input
from the operator when the operation is complete.
