Definition
In MagIC Net, manual control refers to the program part in which the connected devices can be directly
controlled, i.e. without a predefined execution specification. The precondition for this is that the devices
are switched on and detected by MagIC Net. Manual control is also possible live when running a
method.
Organization
A distinction is made between the manual control of the workplace and the global manual control.
They differ in respect to selection of the devices and in the rights concerning when manual control is
allowed.
Only devices which are used in the method of the selected workplace are available. These devices
can be operated manually at any time, also live during the run. Such live changes are, of course,
noted in the relevant determination.
All the devices which have been recognized by the software and which are not reserved by a
workplace are available. This prevents an unintentional manipulation of devices which are used in
the run of a method.
