How modification affects RPHs and the operator dialog
The new values are immediately available for all not yet active recipe phases (EPH, EOP) and
operator dialogs.
For active recipe phases (EPH, EOP) and operator dialogs, the following behaviors are
exhibited:
● Parameter is "Modifiable":
If recipe steps are currently being processed, parameter changes by the operator are not
applied immediately. Modified parameter values only take effect the next time the recipe
step is run through.
● Parameter is "Effective immediately":
If the recipe step is currently being processed, parameter values changed by the operator
are applied immediately. Parameter values for the active recipe step in the control recipe
are transferred directly to the automation system. You influence the active block in this way.
How modification affects ROPs and the RUPs
The new values are available immediately for all not yet active recipe elements (ROP, RUP)
and operator dialogs.
Parameter is "Modifiable":
If recipe elements are currently being processed, parameter changes by the operator are not
applied immediately. Modified parameter values only take effect the next time the element is
executed (for example positioning within a loop).
Note
If a user has opened a recipe element for editing, other users cannot make changes to this
object.
Changing setpoints
You make the setpoint changes during batch control in the properties dialog of the recipe
element. The figure below is an example of the dialog for modifying the parameters of a recipe
step.
You open the properties dialog by selecting the recipe element and the "Properties" command
in the corresponding shortcut menu.
The "Input materials", "Output material" and "Parameters" tabs are only displayed if parameters
are also available for them.
If you press the "Modify" button, the parameter fields with the option "Modifiable" become
editable (white background). Modify the setpoints and then press the "OK" button.
Next to the parameter fields, there is a check box. If the setpoints are changed, this check box
is selected. Only setpoints with a selected check box are transferred to the batch control with
a changed value. If changes are not to take effect immediately, clear the check box for the
time being.
Result: The modified setpoint values are applied. Depending on the parameter assignment,
the setpoints take effect immediately or only the next time the recipe element is run through.
