Layer Stopped
Restart Layer repeats the stopped layer, beginning with preconditioning. Start Nxt Layer skips the remainder of the current layer and immediately starts the next layer.
Note: Pressing the Abort SoftKey at any time completely aborts the process. You can only restart the process at Layer 1!
Spend some time in Simulate mode verifying that the process sequences through each phase of each layer as expected. If not, use the Quick Setup, Process, and Film menus to make corrections.
Because the process is being “simulated,” some parameters will not be correct for your process (particularly, PID). However, you can become familiar with the effect of each parameter in this simulated process. Also practice using the Next Menu options, especially Auto/Manual modes.
Once you have verified the process in Simulate Mode, you may return to the System Params menu and turn Simulate OFF to start testing your process. Use the next section to finalize the loop PID settings.
