IV. Align Holder – Checking this box will add a step in the process which guides the user through
alignment of the vacuum pick and centering nest for working with components ranging between 1-
5mm.
V. Micro Chip – This automation routine is intended for use in installation profiles of components
smaller than 1mm square, or whenever it would be more convenient to pick-up a component from
the board instead of a component nest.
VI. Auto Removal (not pictured) – This option takes the place of the other automation options when
creating a removal profile. When checked, the TF-1800 will automatically remove the component
at the end of the heating cycle.
D) Mode Indicator – The person developing the profile can use this box to switch back and forth between
the two versions of the Profiler Screen, without having to log completely out of the developer mode.
E) Developer Logout – Click this to logout of
developer mode. Until the developer is
logged back in profiles may only be loaded
and run, no changes can be made to them.
F) Trial and Graph options – These four
columns control information displayed on
the profile graph while a profile is run
during development, as well as what is
seen by anyone later running the profile
from Production Mode.
I. Trial Number – Selects active trial.
II. Sensors Used – Selects which
thermocouple profile graphs will be
recorded during a profile run.
III. Show Trial Graph – Can be used to
display the profile graphs of multiple
trial runs in the Profile Graph Chart
for comparison.
IV. Production Sensor – This is used to
select which thermocouple profile
graph will be displayed on the
production screen as the primary
reference, once the profile has been
saved.
G) Clear buttons – Pressing clear will reset the current and highest temperature for the respective sensor.
H) Profile instructions/specifications block – This block can be used to store text notes or instructions about
the profile for future reference during production runs. This information cannot be changed by the
production mode user.
