More Information on Order Progress in Small Plant Overview

posetup_en The small Plant Overview (on the PC-Topp.NET main menu page as well as the corrugator and conversion menu pages) visualizes order progress in more detail. The setup process is shown graphically now:

Beginning of Setup
posetup0_en While a setup is in progress on a machine the expected setup time is marked dark yellow; a fine bright yellow line shows the end of the expected setup time.
During Setup
posetup1_en Along with the setup progress the dark yellow setup time grows light yellow.
Setup Takes Longer than Expected
posetup2_en As soon as the actual setup time extends beyond the expected setup time the extra time is represented by a green checkered area.
After End of Setup
posetup3_en
posetup4_en		 The light green area shows the actual setup time. Its width in relation to the yellow mark for the expected setup time shows if the setup has been just in time, early or late.
The order progress is visualized by the dark green area which expands along with the growing number of produced sheets.
Order progress is shown
  • by quantity if a machine is equipped with a machine terminal and a counter.
  • by time if a machine either has no machine terminal or a machine terminal and no counter.
