Practical Tutorial

Settings and Changeover Tutorial

The following Settings & Changeover Tutorial has two sections:

  • GUI-Driven Approach: This approach relies on the visual nature (the Graphical User Interface) of the MES and Ignition components.

  • Script-Driven Approach: This approach uses Python scripting to create and manage recipe execution without requiring GUI touch points.

Each section is independent and contains its own setup and configuration pages.

Warning
