Preparing a Screen Lot for Dispensing

Rock Maker allows you to dispense your own custom screen lots.

Important: When you move a screen lot to the Dispense Queue, it becomes read-only to prevent harmful changes to the data.

 

To prepare a screen lot for dispensing:

  1. Make sure all of the screen lot's conditions are defined.
  2. On the Screen contextual tab set, go to View tab and click the Lots button.

Note: When you create a screen, Rock Maker automatically creates the initial screen lot. You can also dispense the plates as part of this initial lot instead of creating a new one.

  1. To insert a new screen lot, type a comment in the Comment box; select a plate from the Container list, and type in the dispense and current volumes in the appropriate boxes. Then, click the Add button.
