Abstract: An adjustment-determining method includes obtaining a mathematical model relating an operating parameter of the deposition line to a quality function defined from a quality measurement of a stack of thin layers deposited by the deposition line on a transparent substrate; obtaining a value of the quality function from a value of the quality measurement measured at the outlet of the deposition line on a stack of thin layers deposited by the deposition line on a substrate while the deposition line was set so that an operating parameter had a current value; and automatically determining by the mathematical model an adjustment value for the current value of the operating parameter serving to reduce a difference that exists between the value obtained for the quality function and a target value selected for the quality function for the stack of thin layers.
