“Revision”
- This is the revision level of the board to be pressed, or alternatively the revision of the Press
Sequence program. It is used as reference in this file only.
Board Dimensions Tab
“Board
Width”
- This is the dimension of the board in the X axis direction (left to right) as normally
positioned in the machine. It may or may not be the smaller board dimension. For manually positioned
presses, this dimension is only used for drawing the board.
“Board
Length”
- This is the dimension of the board in the Y axis direction (front to back) as normally
positioned in the machine. It may or may not be the larger board dimension. For manually positioned
presses, this dimension is only used for drawing the board.
“Board Thickness”
- This is the nominal board thickness which is used to calculate the connector
pressed height. If the board thickness measurement option is selected, the measured thickness will be
used instead.

Part Viewer
Mode”
–
The part viewer mode determines the type of board display shown during
runtime.The part viewer is also display in the sequence editor next to the board dimensions entry field.
●
Picture
–
This option uses a picture from a digital camera or scan of a photograph to show the board
being pressed. The connector position and angle information entered into the Sequence tab is used to
generate connector image overlays on the board picture.
●
Data
–
This option creates an image from the X, Y, angle, and connector data to display at runtime.
Connector information is entered into the Sequence tab. The Sequential mode pressing sequence follows
the order of the connectors in the Seqeunce tab.
●
None
–
No image of the PCB is displayed on the screen in Run mode. Instead, a list of the connectors
on the PCB is displayed along with their associated tools. Instead of using the “Go
t
o” runtime function, the
next connector to press is chosen by clicking on the list. This option may be useful when performing PCB
repair operations.
