Activity Modes

Setup Mode: The job is still in the setup phase (pre-machining). This was previously defined as Downtime Mode. For more information on this product change, visit Activities Overview.
Production Mode: The job is in the production phase, or actively being produced.
Note: Currently there are only two activity modes and they can not be deleted. You can add new activities within each of these modes which will be covered in the next section.
