Recipes
The most important part of the
SpecMetrix
® System is the coating recipe. This contains all the critical
information about the coating/layer/film that is being measured. The User Interface allows all the
information about the recipe and its layer(s) to be viewed on a single screen.
There is a lot of information on this screen, and while all of it may be relevant to your needs, not all of it
is “required.” For fields that are required or that have dependency properties has validation that takes
place when an attempt is made to save the recipe. If not all the required information is entered, an
appropriate alert will be displayed as (Red circle with ‘X’) or (Yellow caution with “!”). Hovering over the
icon will describe what is required to fulfill the validation. If the required information is not available,
the recipe cannot be finalized and saved.
