7-2 Programming Basics
For example, the first level of a multipass underfill program might look like this in FmNT:
The first line of the program is a Purge command. The dispensing head will move to the
Purge Station and purge the valve for two seconds. The second command and the 11
th
command form a multipass loop, which means that commands 3-10 will execute in order a
defined number of times, in this case twice, as defined in line 2.
Commands 3-10 are calling a separate dispensing program, titled “Multipass”, and telling it
to execute at the (X,Y) coordinates at the end of each line. This is called a “nested pattern”
and will be explained in greater detail later in this chapter.
