14.1 Dialogs
● OK: The "OK" column containing the check box is then displayed if you call up the
"Properties " dialog > "Parameters" tab of a control recipe during batch processing and then
click the "Change" button for the selected parameter row.
If the check box in the "OK" column is selected, entered values are applied. If the check
box is not selected, no values will be applied. If a limit is violated, the entered value is shown
in red. A distinction is made between recipe phases and operator instructions:
– For recipe phases: If the check box is selected, the setpoint entered is within the
– For operator instructions: If the check box is selected, the process value entered is within
● Value (act): Displays the current process value. Process values from the current batch are
then displayed, when the corresponding batch step is active, for example, with the Running
or Held status. The corresponding unit must be allocation, in addition. The value is
constantly updated in the dialog in the BCC. The process value is transferred to the BATCH
database only when the batch step reaches a final status, for example, Completed, Aborted,
or Continuous. Hover the mouse pointer over the cell to get more information in a tooltip.
The time stamp tells you when the process value was recorded. The activation counter
shows how often the element has been activated. In loops, this counter is usually equivalent
to the number of passes. However, manual activation (reset, start) is also an instance of
activation and increments this counter.
Note: If the background of this cell is red, the (actual) value displayed in the cell may not
correspond to the possible setpoints. The value is displayed just as it was read in this case.
● High recipe limit: input of the high recipe limit. The high recipe limit must be within the
engineering limits. Values outside this range are marked in red during input and are not
permitted. If you click the X button, the entered value is reset to the original limit from the
ES. The setpoint for the amount of input material must then be within the recipe limits.
Otherwise, the validation signals an error. The high recipe limit is not unit-dependent, but
rather quantity-dependent. The recipe limits are adopted for the higher-level steps linked
to the source or destination.
● High limit: For steps that are linked to an EOP, EPH or library sequence, the high limit is
adopted from the ES or from the library object. It is unit-dependent. The limits are adopted
for the higher-level steps linked to the source or destination.
Note
If the master recipe has yet to be assigned to a unit, the high and low limits are marked in
green. The limits indicate the "shell" over all unit candidates.
● Unit of measure: The parameters are specified in greater detail by the units of measure.
The units of measure are entered in the ES and adopted when the process cell data are
imported.

the specified limits and will be accepted by the system. If the system detects a limit
violation, the check mark is removed from the check box. The entered value is not
adopted by the system and is not shown in the batch report. If you as the user
nevertheless want to apply the value and show it in the batch report, select the check
box.
