verify
card has
been
fed,
correction card
punching cannot
be done; however,
the corrected data
is
in
output
storage,
to
be used
if
there
is
a verify-duplicate
operation
in
the
next
verify card.
MULT
PCH
Similar to
its
use
in
punching,
MULT
PCH
may
be used
in
verifying to verify a
combination
of holes
that are
not
represented
by
a
single
alphabetic or
numeric key
on
the
keyboard.
Press
and
hold
MULT
PCH,
and key
the neces-
sary
keys
(normally
digits
12-9) to
verify the
MULT
PCH
character.
When
MULT
PCH
is
released, verification
occurs.
If
it
compares,
the operation continues;
if
it
does not
compare, an
error
is
signaled
by
the
VERIFY
light.
Note
that pressing
MULT
PCH
places
the
keyboard
in
numeric
shift; also,
with
MULT
PCH
held
down,
the
-LZ
key
verifies
an
1
1
-punch
(via
input
storage) in the card.
REL
Use
of
the
REL
key
in
verifying
is
an
interruption
of
the
verify process,
and
the card
cannot be
OK-punched
with
a
2-punch and
a
3-punch
in
column
8
1
,
except
by
refeeding
and
reverification.
REL
is
used
to interrupt
verification
when
there are
numerous
errors in
the
card, or
when
a
correction
is
improperly
made, and
the
complete
correction
card
punching
routine
is
not
necessary.
Pressing
REL
causes the
IBM
129
to
ignore
all
following
data
in
the record
in
input
storage,
except
that
programmed
automatic ver-dup
fields
are
verify-duplicated,
if
AUTO
SKIP/DUP
is
ON.
After
a
card has
been
released,
use
FEED
or
CLEAR
to
continue
the operation.
(FEED
allows
verify
duplication
in
the
next
record;
CLEAR
does
not.)
The
VER
CORR
key
does not
cause
a
correction card to
be punched,
because
a
released
card
is
an incomplete,
interrupted-verify
condition.
Frequently an
error
is
keyed
incorrectly
by
the operator,
and
neither
a correction-card
nor
a correction-verify
is
desired. In
this case,
character
backspace before
a
rewrite,
make
the correct
verification,
and
continue.
PROGRAM MODE
The program
card
is
loaded
into storage
by
a
program
load
operation, described
in
Section
3.
A
single
program
at a
time
is
loaded.
The
program
remains
in
storage
until
the
mainline switch
is
turned
off or
until
another
program
load
operation
takes
place
for
that
dial
setting
of
PROGRAM
MODE.
The
operator
can
shift
between program
levels
any
number
of times while
entering data,
through
the use
of
PROG
SEL,
followed
by
the
appropriate data
key
(0-6).
The
card
punch
returns to the
program
level
indicated
by
PROGRAM MODE
on
advancing
from
card
columns
00-01,
except
when
REC
ADV/CARD FEED
is
set
to
MANUAL,
and
PROG
SEL
is
used
to
set
the
program
level
for
column
01
of
the
next
record.
The
PROGRAM MODE
switch positions (other than 0-6)
are:
STAT
PCH:
This
function
provides
for
punching
out
production
statistics
data.
See
"Special
Features"
in
Section
7.
PROG
PCH:
Pressing
REL,
with
REC ADV/CARD FEED
set
to
MANUAL,
followed
by
pressing
PROG
SEL, and
pressing
appropriate
data
keys
1-6,
with
a
blank
card
registered
at
the
punch
station,
causes
punchout
of
the
appropriate
program
level
from
storage.
See
"Punchout
(Stored
Program)"
in
Section
3.
Backspace and
Rekey
The
normal
verify
procedure
is
to
use
VER
RES
and
the
two-try-verify
procedure
for verify corrections. If
you
do
not
want
to
make
the correction
(third)
keystroke, using a
character/field/record
backspace
to reset
the
error
condi-
tion
allows
you
to
retry
the
field
or position
again,
with
a
new
error retry
sequence. Thus,
by
character
backspacing
after
each second attempt,
endless
attempts
to verify a
character
can be
made.
DATA
READ:
When
READ
is
pressed, a
register
cycle
and
a
card read cycle occur. This causes
a
data
transfer
from
a
card
at
the read
station to
output
storage.
The program
is
automatically
set
to
program
level 0,
so
this
data
can be
manually
duplicated
and
new
data
keyed
in
on
a selected
column
basis.
(This allows easy card
makeover.) This
dial
setting selects
program
level
operation
for
the
next card
in
the data card recorder.
If
a card
is
registered at either
station
when
READ
is
pressed,
the read cycle
does not
occur.
