"Running your first job" - missing step to import board to job #160

Open plaes opened 2 weeks ago

plaes commented 2 weeks ago

There seems to be a step missing in the "Finding the FTP Location" part where one actually imports the board: https://docs.opulo.io/openpnp/ftp/1-board-setup/#finding-the-ftp-location

Documentation shows a OpenPNP window with empty job / placement data and suddenly at the next step these are populated.

Is this section the right one for importing the board?

Is this section the right one for importing the board?

At my current state of understanding, I wouldn't put it there as this part is actually "preparing the job" which consists of these steps:

  1. Create a new board definition
  2. Import component placement information
  3. ...probably some other steps...
  4. Save all the information created in previous steps in a job

Therefore I would still put the "import the job definition" step here as a second step: https://docs.opulo.io/openpnp/ftp/1-board-setup/#finding-the-ftp-location
