2.7 Running a Process

Once a Process is defined with the desired Layers, and the sensors and source supply
are properly connected, the deposition process is ready to run. This section describes
the steps to select, start, and stop a process.

There are three Main Menu screens while the process is stopped (two when it is
running). Pressing the Next Menu SoftKey accesses the three screens. Next Menu is
the first SoftKey in each of the three menus. Likewise, Start/Stop is the last SoftKey on
each Main Menu. Main Menu 1 displays the SoftKeys used to control the process.
