Job control

You control jobs in the production modules using commands on the Job menu or using toolbar buttons.

To start a job, you first start a production module, and then open a job description.

Start. The production module starts the open job and sets its status to Started.

Pause. A job with the status Started changes its status to Paused. Pause is useful if you want to do something else on your PC while a production module is running, for example.

Statistics are not reinitialized when you Pause and Start a job again.

Continue. The result depends on what you are doing at the time. It can:

  • Restart a job with the status Paused or Wait.

  • Proceed to the next page during mass verify (same as pressing Enter).

  • Switch to normal mode from fast verify mode.

Stop. Stops a job with the status Started or Paused and changes its status to Stopped.
