SPC:SCR: Create and Validate Sample Definitions

Create Sample Definitions

  • Click the Generate Sample Definition button on the 01_Configuration screen. A Sample Definition called Dimension Sample B will be created, with the attributes Diameter, LocationX and LocationY per the following two lines in the button script:

    Copy Code
    Code
    sampleDefName = 'Dimension Sample B'
newAttList = ['Diameter', 'LocationX', 'LocationY']
  • Click OK on the confirmation screen "New Sample Definition Created".
Information

To create your own Sample Definition, find and edit the two lines above in the button script on the 01_Configuration screen and provide a new name and list of attributes.

Validate Sample Definitions

  • Open a screen with the Sample Definition Manager component. You should see your new Sample Definition with its attributes and location.  You could also confirm your sample definition generation action through a selector component, such as the MES Object Selector.


Some use cases require the creation of Sample Definitions via script due to source and flexibility requirements.  By checking your script with a UI screen, you can ensure the script functions as expected.  Of course, in production environments, these scripts run on events typically away from a UI, but this is a best practice to validate the script runs properly.
