Run an individual phase in auto mode

You may run a phase using AUTO mode in the Equipment view. When a phase is in AUTO mode, P_AUTO displays as the Mode next to the phase icon. While the phase is running, RUNNING is displayed next to the phase icon in dark green text. The information is also displayed in the Phase Specific Information Display area.
  1. Open the Equipment view.
  2. Navigate to the Unit in which the desired phase resides. Phases that are not running are in IDLE status.
  3. Select the phase, and then click the
    Acquire
    button.
  4. Click the
    Start
    button to initiate the phase. The
    Batch ID
     dialog box opens.
  5. Enter the appropriate Batch ID, and then click
    OK
    .
  6. The text next to the phase icon lists the current active state and the step index, both in the appropriate color (i.e., RUNNING_1, where RUNNING is the State and 1 is the step index). The mode is displayed as PH_AUTO for operator-controlled Auto mode. The phase transitions to the RUNNING
    state and then to the COMPLETE state after all steps are executed.
  7. Respond to any prompts in the Instructions view.
  8. Once the phase is complete it must be reset. Click the appropriate Phase icon, and then click the
    Reset
    button.
  9. Click the
    Release
    button. The Owner is set back to blank, indicating that there is no current owner of the phase.
