Parameter 8
Setpoint Time Lim
it
access:
SPTM
Value Range
0:00 - 99:59
Units
Min:Sec
The setpoint time limit parameter is used to provide a comparison point for the STC-2002 
timer setpoint event status.

Parameter 9
Soak 1 P

w
e
r Value
access:
PWR1 power condition power level 1
Value Range
0.0 - 100.0
Units
Percent
This parameter sets the deposition source power value to be used as the first level of soak 
power in the pre-deposition cycle. This power level will be maintained for the duration of 
the soak 1 timer. This level is typically used to out gas and condition the source material. 
A value of 0.0% causes the rise/soak 1 phase to be skipped.

r Ramp 1 Time
access:
RMP1 ramp time to power level 1
Value Range
0:00 - 99:59
Units
Min:Sec
This parameter sets the duration of the power ramp from zero power to the power level 
set by the soak 1 power value parameter.

r Soak 1 Time
access:
SKT1 soak time at power level 1
Value Range
0:00 - 99:59
Units
Min:Sec
This parameter sets the time that the source will remain at the soak 1 power level 
following the completion of the ramp to this level.

r Value
access:
PWR2 power condition power level 2
Value Range
0.0 - 100.0
Units
Percent
This parameter sets the deposition source power value to be used as the second level of 
soak power in the pre-deposition cycle. This power level will be maintained for the 
duration of the soak 2 timer. A value of 0.0% skips the rise/soak 2 phases.

r Ramp 2 Time
access:
RMP2 ramp time to power level 2
Value Range
0:00 - 99:59
Units
Min:Sec
This parameter sets the duration of the power ramp from the soak 1 power value or the 
idle power value to the value set by the soak 2 power parameter.
