I just sent you a private note, but no, you don't do anything during it's
60-second cycle. You do the first flush before the tester cycle, then you
reflush the system after the Thexton has cycled the fluid out of the abs
controller. I would run the Thexton though a couple of 60-second cycles for
good measure.

Thanks to the design of the controller, nothing is automatic!!

On eBay I bought one of those Thextron electronic brake bleeders.  You
disconnect the ABS computer and plug this thing in its place.  It's got just
two buttons, Start and Abort.

I've read the directions and still have a question.  Do I still need a
helper to press-hold-release the brake pedal while I bleed at each wheel?
It appears so.  I had hoped that this gizmo would enable me to bleed the
whole system more automatically.

Any tips?
