Warning

Press the Save button in the right Side Panel, , to load the configuration on the autopilot. Otherwise, it will be only loaded to Pipe software.

The options provided to the user are “Check PDI”, which generates an error display window, “Change Setup”, explained below, “Try load PDI” and “Retry”. When selecting “Check PDI”, the system will try to report the errors. It may or may not find them:
