Adding a new Batch Phase

I created a new batch phase class.  A phase using the class was added to 4 units on the same controller so therefore its difficult to complete download.  We have since discovered that the phases were disabled (because it was new??) downloaded the 4 units.

Now recipe procedures that use the new phase will not load because the phase is disabled.   Can the new phases be enabled without having to download the unit?

  • Jane, I trying to find a v12 system to check but it should work as v13 does which allows you to download the phase that has just been enabled on the unit while the unit is running. It does download the Unit phase table but a unit running phases is unaffected by this phase and phase table download.

    Thanks for the response, Matt. We got it to work after several trials/failures so am not sure if order of certain actions was involved. The main oversight was forgetting to update BS "download unit equipment". However doing that and downloading the phase, the unit download flag is not clearing which did not appear until the enable was set on the phase. Downloading the unit solves the issue.

    I think that is a "Blue Triangle" indication issue on the unit, I don't think it is actually needed other than to remove the indication.
