9. Starting the optical read cycle
b. Jobs and working modes
Jobs
A job consists in all the actions to be carried out to produce a pair of glasses. It can be managed in 2 ways:
1. Saving: assign an ID& and a reference to the job to save it and re-use it later.
◦Automatic job archiving
◦Mandatory in the tracing - tracing work mode
2. Without saving: working in current mode (job identification by the letter A) makes it possible to
process a job quickly without memorizing it (the job processing cycle must be finished before starting
a new one).
Working modes
There are 2 Work modes to manage your jobs:
1. The tracing-centering mode
2. The tracing-tracing mode
The selected work mode is shown in the information bar, to the left of the Essilor logo. You can change it in
the tracer settings.
1. Working in the tracing - centering mode
At the end of a tracing, the tracer-centerer-blocker displays the centering screen automatically
then the edging preparation screen.
You can fully process a job before proceeding to the following:
1. Tracing or recovering a job from the database
2. Changing the shape and drilling position if necessary
3. Centering
4. Lens blocking
5. Edging preparation
To activate this working mode, select the following parameters in the configuration screen: (F p.129)
