7. Function Settings
Function settings can adjust in support of operating procedures or various paper types, according to use.
7-1. Operation modes
Operation mode refers to setting operations for the stoppers for the folding plate 1 and folding plate 2 when the power is first turned on.
[STD] (Standard)
[LF] (Last fold mode)
Function for starting up in the normal setting condition when the power is turned on.
Function for starting up using the setting last used on the machine the previous time.
If the power is turned off during paper folding operation, the setting information is not stored.
[SF](Stopper fixed mode) Function for omitting the operations panel setting when always processing using the same conditions.
The machine is constantly set automatically using the same conditions.
When the power is turned on, the initial operation is no longer performed.
Because automatic setting is performed under the same conditions, the paper size and folding mode cannot be changed.
Folding misalignment in the up or down direction will occur if the power is turned on after turned off during operation of the folding stopper or during temporary stop caused by opening the cover. In this case, be sure to press the C key while pressing the
key to forcibly eject paper when you turn on the power.

7-2. Interval functions
The interval (batch) function refers to a function for a fixed time interruption of processing operations at a specified number of sheets.
During this interruption the ejected paper is removed, enabling a reduction in the post-processing operations load.
If wanting to set the interval function to [ON], change [Interval] to [ON].
If using the interval function, set [Interval] each time you turn on the power.

If the sheet number set by the subtraction counter differs from the sheet number set in the interval, the sheet number set by the subtraction counter takes priority.
For example, if the interval is set to 20 sheets and the subtraction counter to 50 sheets, the 20 sheets will be set in 2 set processing (total of 40 sheets process completed), followed by the start of the third set, but the machine stops after 10 sheets process completed because the subtraction counter is functioning. If the key is pressed after the machine shutdown, the remaining 10 sheets process is ended, and an interval is entered.

7-3. Energy-saving setting
If set to energy-saving mode, and the machine is not operated for a fixed time, the machine is switched to a energy-saving state.
Pressing any key on the operations panel, or opening the top cover, can be used to exit the energy-saving state.
Example: Set to switch to energy-saving state if there has been no operation for 15 minutes

7-7. Read setting for interval function (with power switched on)
When [Oper Mode] is set to [STD], this function is for omitting the operations panel setting every time you want to perform process with the same interval function (*) as previous one.
(*) [IntervalTime] and [Interv Sht]
When you set [DEF INTVL] to [ON], it is unnecessary to set the operation panel because the machine starts up with an already set interval function.
When you set [DEF INTVL] to [ON], the already set interval function is kept even though [Interval] is set to [OFF].

7-8. Paper feed timing setting
Set the paper feed ring operation time.
When using paper in the long paper feed direction, or when using thick paper, art paper, or coated paper, the paper feed performance can be boosted by lengthening the paper feed ring operations time.
When using paper in the short paper feed direction, do not set to [Long].
