Command Description
Fiducial Options
If Fid Not Found - Selecting Skip will automatically skip any pattern
containing fiducials that are not found in a fiducial search during a
production run. Selecting Prompt will notify the operator with a Fiducial
Error message if the fiducial is not found. The operator can then choose to
manually locate the fiducial, skip it and continue with the run, ignore the
error and continue with the run, or abort the run.
Pause After Search - If the Pause Mode is active during the fiducial finding
process, the system will pause between finding each fiducial and display an
OK or a Fid Not Found message during each pause.
Enable Z Positioning - This feature is used only on dispensing systems that
have the Camera mounted to the Dispensing Head so that the Camera
moves up and down with the dispensing valve. Enabling this feature allows
you to establish different Camera heights for different fiducial searches.
The Z height of the Camera for each fiducial is taught and saved when the
program is created. When the program runs, the Camera moves to the
same taught height before searching for the fiducial.
Apply Camera Rotation Correction - Selecting this feature will cause the
Camera rotation angle determined during the Vision Calibration procedure
to be applied during FmNT operation.
Suckback/Purge During Search - This feature may be used for dispensing
programs that contain such a high number of fiducials that the fluid may
begin to drip from the needle tip during the fiducial search. Click on Setup
to open the Suckback/Purge Control Parameters dialog box.
Skip Mark Options
Pause After Search - Activate this feature to pause after each Skip Mark
search. Allows the operator to see the status of each Skip Mark.

Defaults
Post Move Settling Time - A delay once the Dispensing Head has moved to
a fiducial location before a fiducial search begins. It allows for any residual
movement to cease so an accurate search can be performed. The default
value is 50 milliseconds for M-2000 and Axiom X-1000 machines and 350
milliseconds for Automove machines (Century Series, M-600 Series).
Use Pipeline Vision - Enables the Pipeline Vision feature, which can greatly
increase throughput during fiducial searches. If Pipeline Vision is NOT
used, FmNT waits at a fiducial location until it has completely finished
identifying the fiducial and calculating its location before executing the next
command. If Pipeline Vision is enabled, the fiducial information is
"pipelined" and calculated while the next command is being executed.
Fid Search At Safe Z - This feature is only available if Enable Z Positioning
is activated. Activating this feature moves the Dispensing Head to the safe
Z height between fiducial searches, ensuring that the Camera does not
collide with any obstacles while moving around the dispensing area.
" NOTE The above options will be applied to all dispensing programs
created AFTER these options are established. To apply these
options to an existing program, you must open the program,
establish the options within the program, and then save it.
