Manual
Configuration and Characterization 4-3
To define Tool Offsets:
1. Click on
Configure > Tools from the Edit Screen menu bar.
The Tool Configuration dialog box opens (Figure 4-2).
WARNING! If Tool Offsets have already been defined and set up in the Tool Library,
correct offsets are displayed in the Tool Configuration dialog box. DO NOT
change them without assistance from your Nordson ASYMTEK representative.
Your Nordson ASYMTEK application engineer can supply you with the offset
coordinates for each tool used.

2. Select the desired tool tab.
NOTES Some tools have multiple soft-tools (software tools) for a single physical tool. For
example, the SC-300 has five soft tools for one physical applicator. It is only necessary
to change the offsets for one of the soft-tools. Offsets for the remainder of the soft-tools
automatically update.
If you are teaching the offsets for a tool that toggles or otherwise actuates
pneumatically, make sure that it is selected from the drop down tool menu and that it is
rotated/tilted to 0 degrees. Selecting from the drop down menu will ensure that the tool
toggles down.
