Start Trigger There is a scroll down list allowing you to choose how you would like
your campaign to be triggered. The list includes:
„
(none) – no trigger.
„
Time/Date – this allows you to enter the time and date you would like
the campaign to start.
„ Batch State – allows you to set the batch to start depending on the
state of any other batch transitioning to Running or Complete.
„ Immediate Start – this will start the campaign as soon as it is created.
„ Sequential Start – each batch will automatically be started when the
state of the previous batch is “complete.”
Note: The start trigger for the first batch is not modified.
Scale Parameters
(Only applies to recipes
which are marked as
having scalable
parameters)
(All scalable parameters are highlighted in light blue in the dialog box.)
This allows deferred recipe parameters to be scaled automatically
according to the batch size. When the box is unchecked, the ingredient
value entered is sent to the FactoryTalk Batch Server and automatically
scaled.
To see what it will be scaled to, check the Scale Parameters box and the
scaled value will replace the original value.
When a value for the ingredient is entered and the Scale Parameters
box is checked, the actual value that the FactoryTalk Batch Server will
use is displayed. It will not be changed because it is already scaled.
For example, a batch with a default size of 4,000 liters is scaled to 5,000
liters, or 125% of the default batch size as defined in the recipe header. If
100 liters of the ingredient WATER is entered with the Scale
Parameters box unchecked, FactoryTalk Batch Server will
automatically scale the amount of the ingredient WATER to 125 liters.
When the Scale Parameters box is checked, it displays the value the
FactoryTalk Batch Server used, which would be 125 liters. If
125 liters
is entered when the Scale Parameters box is checked, the FactoryTalk
Batch Server uses the actual number you entered (in this case, 125
liters).
Formula Value Name A name for a recipe parameter.
Minimum Minimum value for the recipe parameter.
Value Desired value for the recipe parameter.
You can adjust the values of an individual or the master batch,
depending on what you want. If you adjust the Batch Size parameter, the
campaign size will automatically be updated in the Campaign Amount
box at the bottom of the window.
Maximum Maximum value for the recipe parameter.
Eng. Units Engineering units.
Unit Alias Name given at a procedure level by the recipe author to reference the
unit class.
