Manual
Appendix A - Programming Menu Detail A-5
Begin Continuous - Inserts a Begin Continuous command into a program. Only Line
commands can be used between a Begin Continuous and End Continuous instruction.
Continuous path means that the positioner does not stop at the end of each line segment and
tries to maintain a constant velocity throughout the whole section.
End Continuous
- Inserts an End Continuous command into a program. Only Line commands
can be used between a Begin Continuous and End Continuous instruction. Continuous path
means that the positioner does not stop at the end of each line segment and tries to maintain a
constant velocity throughout the whole section.
Change Outputs
- Selecting this option opens a dialog box in which you can access all outputs
for the Dispenser and the Conveyor. You can select an output and determine which state to
change it to. The command is inserted into the dispensing program at the selected location.
If Input - Inserts an If Input statement into the dispensing program. This allows you to specify a
particular action based on a particular input condition.
If System Variable
- Inserts an If System Variable into the dispensing program. This allows
you to specify a particular action based on a particular system condition.
Begin Gather
- Inserts a Begin Gather command into your program. When a Begin Gather
command appears, FmNT begins to gather specific PMAC information until the End Gather
command executes. PMAC information is used for troubleshooting.
End Gather - Inserts an End Gather command into your program. When a Begin Gather
command appears, FmNT begins to gather specific PMAC information until the End Gather
command executes. PMAC information is used for troubleshooting.
Set Active Valve
- If your dispensing system is equipped with a Dual-Action Dispensing Head,
this feature defines which valve is affected by the process commands.
Refill Valve
- Refills the DP Series Dispensing Valve.
PMAC Frame Rotation
- Available in future releases.
Abort Program
- Aborts the currently running program.
19. Time Commands
- Accesses a drop-down menu containing Timer-related commands. Timer
commands are used to allow for time-dependent dispensing, as is common in multiple chip
underfill applications. Timer commands can be inserted to allow time for underfill between
dispensing passes on a part.
Pause
- Opens dialog box for specifying a Pause in a program.
Wait
- Opens dialog box for specifying a Wait in a program.
Reset Timer - Allows you to reset a timer at a particular point in a program for time-
delayed functions.
Await Timer
- Allows you to establish Wait Time for time-delayed functions. The program will
pause until the timer has elapsed before executing the next command.
