How do I create a shortcut button in MANTECH Pro software?

All shortcut buttons require a run template with the Sample ID, Script, and Positions filled in the table. Therefore, create the run template and add the shortcut in the Setup → Shortcuts tab.

  1. To start, you must be in the Setup → Run Configuration screen.


  2. Fill out the run table with the respective Sample IDs, Scripts, and Positions you wish the Shortcut button should load. Save As a Template and Define run template name.
    1. In this Example, I will create a Shortcut button to load a Calibration and a QC Check.



  3. Navigate to Setup/Shortcuts screen. On the bottom right, select Edit.




  4. The following information is required when creating the shortcut button:
    1. Name: User-Defined
    2. Run Configuration: Selected from the Drop down menu
    3. Image: Select an existing Image or add a New Image


  5. Drag and Drop the Image from the Image Preview over to the left-hand side to an available open Blank box. Note: You may also edit each section of shortcut buttons here as well.


6. Repeat steps 1-5 for each shortcut button. Click Save when finished.
