Getting Started
1.1 Introduction
The Cygnus™ Editor is a Microsoft® Windows®-based application that provides
both programming capability and data collection for the INFICON® Cygnus Thin
Film Deposition Controller. It is written as a full 32 bit application which takes
advantage of the capabilities of 32 bit operating systems such as Windows 2000
and Windows XP.
The Cygnus Editor provides online and offline editing, structured as functional
windows, that allows for saving multiple configurations. The program makes use of
a simple, intuitive user interface which clearly displays the parameters and
performs boundary checking.
The editor can be used to create new configurations, read existing configurations
from a file or the Cygnus controller, and send any or all parameters from a
Configuration file to the Cygnus controller.
