Slip or skip

larryah · Jul 29, 2010

I saw somewher that there is a way to change slip or skip on the HR24. I have looked in the manual and cant find out how to do it. Can someone help?

Use the search function. It is posted in the New customer read this sticky and elsewhere.

A keyword search using 30SLIP or 30SKIP should do the trick.

What's the difference between slip and skip?

The SKIP moves from one location to the other and you cannot see what you've missed, the Slip lets you see the programming as it goes.

I guess I have a lot to learn when I get installed next Saturday...Can't wait!

True, but I like to know what's going on before I start digging in...

Your suggestion worked like a charm!! I wonder why its not documented in the manual.

Thanks again!

So SLIP is a new word for Fast Forward?
