Park Position:
Where the head
stops when a job
is paused or
ended; near the
side at center.
Tool Position:
Near front center
for easy access to
the PNP head.
Home Position:
Right rear;
automatic
initialization when
a job is started.
Safety Doors and Interlocks
During operation, when the high-speed PNP head is processing devices, the clear
plastic safety doors around the workspace are closed to protect operators from in-
jury. Each safety door has a safety interlock which stops gantry movement if the
operator forgets to first park the PNP head. See next heading.
Prior to opening a safety door
Normally, if the power is ON, before opening any safety door:
•
at the
Run
window, a job should be either Paused or Finished
(stopped), or
•
at the
Gantry
window, the PNP head should be sent to the
park
or
tool
position (by clicking
Park
or
Tool
label), or
•
at the
Setup
window, any time before a job is started.
WARNING:
Possible collision hazard! The high speed and force
of the gantry can seriously harm anyone working inside the workspace.
When working in the machine workspace, moving the PNP head must
be the responsibility of only one qualified individual. All others must
stay clear of the machine controls to prevent injury to that person.
Never bypass or otherwise render safety interlocks inoperable.
WARNING:
Shock hazard! Opening the safety doors stops
motion of the gantry only. It does not remove electrical power from
the machine or any optional equipment.
Turn the main power OFF for safety unless otherwise directed.
Electrostatic Discharge
Devices (integrated circuits) are very sensitive to static, and could be damaged by
unintended electrostatic discharge while being handled. So ensure a common elec-
tric potential (ground) exists between a static-sensitive device or component, its
environment, and the operator.
Operators should wear an antistatic wrist strap (Data I/O part number
4
40-0021-001+)
connected to one of the grounding connections on the machine.
The wrist strap should contain a 1–10 M-ohm current limiting resistor.
