6.8.1 Editing Fiducials
If the system fails to accurately find a significant number of fiducials during a production run, you may
want to redefine the fiducials.
To edit fiducials using the Model Finder:
1. Load the workpiece.
2. Select
Teach a Program from the Main Menu.
The Workpiece pattern of the last saved program opens.
To select a different program, choose
File > Open from the menu bar and select the
desired program from the list.
3. Make sure that the name of the pattern containing the fiducials you wish to edit appears in
the
Pattern Name text box.
If it doesn’t, click on the arrow next to the Pattern Name text box and select the pattern
from the drop-down menu.
Refer to Section 7 - Advanced Programming for information on patterns.
4. From the
Edit menu select Edit Fiducial Info.
A Teach Window opens.
The dispensing head moves to the fiducial location.
5. Select
Model Finder.
6. Click on
Next.
7. Use the position controls to find your new fiducial.
8. Adjust the Model Size parameters if necessary.
9. Adjust the Accept Threshold and Confusion Threshold if necessary.
10. Click on
Teach.
11. Test the fiducial by clicking on
Find Fid.
The Test Results indicate if the fiducial was found or not, its found coordinates, how
certain the system is that it has found the correct fiducial, and how long it took to locate
the fiducial.
