General Model Clarification
Clarification of Equipment & Control Modules
Collapsibility and the “Magic” better defined
Provisions for Part 5
Modes and States
Alignment with S95
Conformance
First: more intuitive figures!
Clarity on Basic Control
Basic Control…where?
Executed by control modules
Equipment modules, units, and process cells may perform basic control because they contain or make use of control modules.
Control modules can direct commands to other control modules if contained or some way referenced.
Explaining the Magic! (and I don't think this means using "handwavium")
"Collapsibility" = Flexibility in the Standard
Defining Collapsibility Rules:
Procedural Element Level
Rules for Omitting
Process Cell Procedure
May be omitted.
Unit Procedure
May be omitted.
Operation
May be omitted
Phase
Recipe phases may be omitted
Equipment phases may not be omitted
