The application that controls the SUPRACODE machine allows keys to be
marked directly and marking templates to be configured, which can be used
during the cutting process for the key models for which they have been defined.
12.8.1 List of templates
The template list screen can be accessed from the main screen, which
shows the templates that have been created in the app and their identifying
characteristics, such as their name and related models. It is also the starting
point for the definition of new templates and keys can be marked directly.
