VIEWING MATERIAL DETAILS

To view additional details regarding a particular material, select the desired material by touching its Material
Status Icon on the screen. Doing so will open its Material Details page. If the material bay/spool is in a warning

The right portion of the screen displays detailed information about the material spool including:
• State: load state of the material bay.
• Type: the type of material on the material spool. If applicable, material color is also indicated
(material color is also indicated within the center of the Material Status Icon within the left portion of
the screen).
• Current Volume: current volume of material on the material spool, in cubic inches (also indicated via
the percentage displayed within the Material Status Icon within the left portion of the screen).

The left portion of the screen displays the same Materials Status Icon as is displayed on the Materials page (see
Figure 4-25 on page 60). The number displayed within the top of the icon indicates which material bay the
material spool is installed/inserted into. The colored bars (displayed within the center of the icon) and
percentage (displayed at the bottom the icon) indicate the current volume and color of the material on the spool.
As material is used to build a part, the number of colored bars and the percentage will decrease to indicate the
amount of material consumed. The name of the type of material on the spool is displayed at the bottom of the
icon.
