The recipe management module allows you to configure and recall operating values that are characteristic of a specific process or configuration. The set of these data constitutes a "recipe".
Each recipe is stored on disk in files with the extension .RCP and when it is recalled and downloaded to the system (Download) it replaces the values of the items in the RealTime Database with those recorded in it.
For example, if the processing of a certain type of material (material 1) requires to stay in the oven for 1800 seconds at a temperature of 100 ° C, while a second material (material 2) requires to stay in the oven for 2650 seconds at the temperature of 180 ° C, two recipes must be configured:

Recipe 1

Recipe 2

When the system works with material 1, Recipe 1 must be called, while processing of material 2 will require Recipe 2.

The reverse operation of the Download is the Upload. This function allows the setting values of the various items to be replaced in the recipe with the current value of these items, i.e. it allows to save the current situation in the recipe.

The recipes are configured with the appropriate editor, which can be called from both the development environment and the visualization environment.

The recipe editor is activated by the development environment. During the visualization phase, it is possible to recall from a synoptic a dialog box that allows the management of existing recipes (saving, saving copies, downloading, uploading, correction of programmed values) but not creating or modifying recipes.
