SECTION III.
TYPE 123 CARD READER
Place the restored cards (or the new cards) and the remainder
of the deck in the feed hopper so that reading may be resumed
from the point in the program at which the stop occurred.
d.
Press the START switch.
NOTE:
It
is usually not necessary for the operator to
remove the machine covers when performing
corrective action for a feed failure.

To restart following a stop condition for a TRANSPORT indication:
a.
Swing open the rear doors and clear the jam condition as re-
quired.
In the case of a wait station jam, the piece which the
card locates against is hinged to facilitate jam removal in
HINGED
WAIT
STATION
this area (see photograph below).
Replace any damaged cards.
NOTE: It is possible for the card causing the jam to be
in a position where it cannot be seen by the
operator, e. g., near the output stacker mechanism;
care must be exercised to insure that the entire
transport mechanism has been cleared.
b.
Press the POWER OFF and POWER ON switches.
c.
Press the RUNOUT switch.
It
is likely that a card remains
in the wait station after the jam condition has been cleared.
Pressing the RUNOUT switch to move the card through the
device to the output stacker insures that the device is oper-
able and that the jam condition has been completely cleared.
This action prevents further damage to the input deck when
reading operations are resumed.
d.
If it is pos sible to determine the point in the program at
which the stop occurred, i. e., the last card which was
correctly read into memory, reassemble the deck accord-
ingly so that reading can be resumed from the point at
