Description

A three-day course covering the use of FlexBatch® production displays to create, execute and monitor campaigns and batches. The configuration management component is introduced and the graphical procedure editor is used to design new recipe procedures, which are then added to FlexBatch® database. Newly created recipe procedures are validated through batch execution. D/3® related displays and utilities such as product monitor are also covered. Various lab exercises are provided to ensure students have hands-on experience with each topic.
