EOS P 396
Setting exposure type
The exposure parameters in the exposure types act differently on the quality of the
parts. The allocation of the exposure types to the parts should therefore be
undertaken carefully.
Saving a job
A job can be saved as a job file and as a packed job file. On saving as a job file with
the extension *.eosjob , the settings and parameters in the job are saved. On saving in
the packed job format, the job file and also the SLI - files used in it are packed into a
common file with the extension *.eosjz . EOS recommends saving as a packed job file
*.eosjz , errors on transferring the job to another computer will then be avoided. On
opening the packed job file is automatically unpacked.

Calculating the building time
The PSW can calculate the building time to be expected with an accuracy of
approx. ± 5 %.
☞ Operation EOS P 396 manual, section 6 , Calculating building time .
The recommended or possible exposure types for the individual materials are
already included in the EOS default jobs.
➢ For information on the functionality of the individual exposure types, see
section 5, Exposure types for the original EOS parameter sets (without PPP) ,
Exposure types for the PPP parameter sets .
➢ It is possible to edit exposure parameters to suit specific requirements using
the Exposure editor module or the Initial values for parameters module; this
aspect is the subject of a more advanced training course.
