Start step Start execution of the
control recipe at this
step.
Inactive, completed or aborted steps (RUP,
SUB, ROP, RPH, transition) can be restarted
with this command.

trol recipe is held at

active step is execu‐
ted until it is comple‐
ted.
You can stop active steps (RUP, SUB, ROP)
with the "Pause after step" command. In con‐
trast to the "Hold immediately" command, this
command simply prevents the control recipe
from passing control to the next step. Active
recipe phases of the step are not stopped but
continue until they are finished.
Batch control, before evaluating the next tran‐
sition or starting the next recipe step in the
same level (RUP, SUB, ROP), waits until the
"Resume step" command is received.
Hold step (immediately) Execution of the con‐
trol recipe is held at
this step, the currently
active step is not com‐
pleted.
You can stop active steps (RUP, SUB, ROP,
RPH, transition) immediately with the "Hold"
command. All the active recipe phases in the
step are held.
