IC/5 Operating Manual

START RAMP 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.000 to 999.9 kÅ

This value determines the thickness at which to begin Rate Ramp 2. Values
range from 0.000 to 999.9 kÅ. The default value is 0. A value of zero disables
this feature. Start Ramp 2 thickness must be greater than Start Ramp 1
thickness. Also, Rate Ramp 2 can not be started until the completion of Rate
Ramp 1. If the thickness of Start Ramp 2 is exceeded while in Rate Ramp 1,
Rate Ramp 2 will begin immediately after
Rate Ramp 1.

RAMP TIME 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 00:00 to 99:59 min:sec

This value is the time interval over which the aggregate rate is ramped linearly
from New Rate 1 to New Rate 2. Values range from 00:00 to 99:59
minutes:seconds. The default value is 00:00.

to NO prior to deleting the layer.

CANNOT EMPTY PROCESS

CANNOT INSERT CO-DEP

A layer cannot be inserted between two co-deposited layers. Set the
co-deposition parameter to NO prior to inserting a layer.

DEL LAST PROCESS FIRST

Delete last process first. The last layer of a process cannot be deleted unless
it is the last layer of the last defined process. The last layer of Process 1 can
never be deleted.

ILLEGAL INPUT - VALUE TOO LARGE
