process consists of a twelve-character name, two levels of passwords and finally a
sequence of layers that makeup the process. Each layer consists of a material and
the desired thickness for the layer. A process can have from 1 to 999 layers as
long as the total number of layers in all the processes is not greater than 999. The
following list describes all of the process parameters:
Process Name (twelve character alphanumeric field)
Each process is referenced by a twelve-character alphanumeric process name.
You enter a process name using the alphanumeric keypad as described in Section
4.1.2. Please note that the active process name is displayed in the upper left-hand
corner of all the status screens.
Edit Password (four character alphanumeric field)
The Edit process password allows you to lock out other users from editing a
process unless the correct password is known. To set this password, highlight the
Edit password field, type in your password then press the Enter key. A message
will pop up asking for verification to change the password. Press 1 to confirm
and 0 to cancel the change. Each time you want to edit this process, you will be
asked to enter the correct password. Once a password has been entered, this
parameter will not be displayed until the password has been entered again.
The default for this parameter is '0000'.
NOTE: Please note that once the password has been changed, the process
cannot be modified unless the correct password is entered so you must
remember your passwords!
View/Run Password (four character alphanumeric field)
The View/Run process password allows you to lock out other users from viewing
and/or running a process unless the correct password is known. To set this
password, highlight the Edit password field, type in your password then press the
Enter key. A message will pop up asking for verification to change the password.
Press 1 to confirm and 0 to cancel the change. Each time you want to view or run
this process, you will be asked to enter this password. Please note that the view
function of this password is ignored if the Edit Password is not set. Once a
password has been entered, this parameter will not be displayed until the
password has been entered again.
The default for this parameter is '0000'.
NOTE: Please note that once the password has been changed, the process
cannot be modified unless the correct password is entered so you must
remember your passwords!
