Understanding Master and Control Recipes

The Recipe Builder creates two types of recipes: master recipes and control recipes. The following figure summarizes differences between master and control recipes.

Master and Control Recipes

As the previous figure suggests, any recipe you create or modify with the Recipe Builder can be saved as either a master or a control recipe. Saving recipe information as a master recipe enables you to modify it later without restriction. Saving recipe information as a control recipe restricts the operator to modifying process values within specific limits.

Unless otherwise stated, the term recipe applies to both master and control recipes.
