A glass processing machine can be given a new job by a control system. This is done by calling the InsertJob-Method and transferring all information that is relevant to the job but has not yet been released for production. These jobs can be modified or deleted by calling the corresponding methods. If the job is currently in Running or Interrupted state, the modification must be confirmed or rejected by an operator at the machine. For deletion of the job while in Running or Interrupted status, the processing must be terminated by operator interaction (Aborted or Ended status) to enable the deletion. This information can be found in section 7.2.

The control system can request the current job list from the OPC UA server of a glass processing machine. This information can be used to plan further jobs or to optimize the sequence. This information can be found in section 7.2.2

The control system can request the current status of a specific job from the OPC UA server of a glass processing machine. This information can be used to plan further jobs or to optimize the sequence. This information can be found in section 7.2.5.

The control system can give the OPC UA server of a glass processing machine the production release for a specific job. This job can then be started by the operator at the machine or by the machine itself (full automation). This information can be found in section 7.2.4.2.

The control system can revoke the production release for a specific job from the OPC UA server of a glass processing machine. If the job is currently in Running status, processing must be interrupted by user interaction (Interrupted status) to allow the release to be withdrawn. This information can be found in section 7.2.4.3

The glass processing machine is expected to offer all current errors and warnings over the machine interface. These errors and warnings shall be mapped to OPC UA event types accordingly. This information can be found in section 8.
