System Configuration and Setup 4-99
Feature Description
Select Station
Click on the arrow to select the dispensing system station you wish to
configure. All of the options on this tab are applied to the selected station.
Process Control
Pre-process Timer
: Determines how long a board remains in the
selected station.
Host Processing
: If checked, the 555 Controller waits for FmXP
handshaking in the selected station to be completed before continuing with
the next task.
Post-process Timer
: A secondary timer that determines how long the board
remains in the selected station after FmXP handshaking is complete.
Belt Control Distances
Clear Stop Distance
: The distance a board needs to travel to clear the
station. This is used primarily for setting the "Manual Unload" distance from
the dispense station. The value should be set so the board is clear of the
stop pin before the stop pin is raised for the next board.
Request Delay Distance
: The distance a board needs to travel before the
selected station may signal that it is ready to load another board.
Maximum Transport Move
: The maximum distance a board may need to
travel to load into the selected station.
NOTE If the belt moves the Maximum Transport Move distance but
the board has not triggered the station sensor, the station
issues an error. To account for possible slippage, it is
recommended that you configure the Maximum Transport
Move distance to be greater than the actual distance required.
