3.3 Expert Matrix
If the WaveRIDER has detected a problem during the data collection process, the
Expert Matrix is designed to guide the Operator (Expert) to trouble-shoot potential
causes that may have been discovered while interpreting the data printout. The kit
includes an Expert Matrix to be used in conjunction with the WaveRIDER Data
worksheet in the software to help diagnose and correct soldering problems caused by
solder machine setup or malfunction.
There are three main areas on the expert guide:
Problem (1): This column is used to indicate the wave solder machine problem.
Potential Cause (2): This is a list of potential machine causes.
WaveRIDER Parameter (3): This column is a list of information the WaveRIDER
supplies on the printout that correlates to the potential
cause.
The numbers assigned to the Potential Causes are on a scale of 1-3. (1) Low impact on
that particular cause and (3) would mean that it has a High impact.
