User Manual

General Overview
Note
This manual and the UltraSpec Analyzer manual use the terms
Station and Machine. In RBMware compatible UltraMgr
v4.00 and later, a station may be preferred to as Area, and
Machine may be referred to as Equipment unless redefined by
the user.
Note
Data from the 8215 and 8225 laser heads are compatiable with
UltraMgr v4.40 and later.
Definitions of the job types shown in the figure are:
•
Assigned jobs – jobs that have been assigned to a machine.
•
Unassigned jobs – jobs that have been moved from the Stored Jobs
area of the analyzer into the UltraMgr database but have not been
assigned to a machine. Using UltraMgr, you can also change a job
from Assigned to Unassigned status.
•
Stored jobs – located in the Stored Jobs area of the Analyzer. Cur-
rent jobs that are saved become stored jobs and are placed in the
Stored Jobs area; also, all jobs that are loaded from the UltraMgr
database are placed in this area and become stored jobs.
•
Current job – job currently displayed in the working area (only one
job can be displayed at a time).
The following cases may help you to understand how jobs are moved
around in the analyzer and back and forth to UltraMgr. When beginning a
job (in the Current Job location), there are normally two choices. Either
start from ground zero and create, configure, and name an entirely new job
or, (if available) recall a job from the Stored Job(s) area.
Case 1 – If you create and configure an entirely new job in the analyzer’s
Current Job area and you want to keep it, you must copy it into the Stored
Job area by using the Store Job command in the Alignment Options menu.
From there (using the UltraMgr database program on a PC), you can down-
load it into a section of UltraMgr known as the Unassigned Area.
