Command: resume


Description:

Use this to tell the autoloader system to resume, or try again, that last part of whatever command it was working on before it got an error and suspended. This command will only do something if the autoloader is indeed suspended.

Note that this command will also work if the autoloader suspended during a workstation-directed image, but if you do this then the workstation will still think the recorder is suspended, and the two will get out of sync with each other (i.e. one of the two will get really confused, and at least either the recorder or workstation will have to be reset before things can continue normally).

For 3230/3244 Trendsetter Autoloader only, starting at V1.30:

The pick/load steps have been separated from the unload/process steps. An extra parameter can be used to specify which step to resume. On diagnostic commands, all plate-handling errors will include a message "ALE expected suspend responses" or "TABLE expected suspend responses". This indicates whether the ale task (controls picking and loading) or the table task (controls unloading and processing) has been suspended. The parameters "ale" or "table" can now be appended to the resume command for extra clarity:

resume ale ........ tells the firmware to try and continue picking or loading.

resume table ..... tells the firmware to try and continue unloading or processing.

If both tasks are suspended and resume (without the ale/table parameter) is entered, then both operations will try to resume.
