fig. 16:
› Switch on the motor by clicking and (raise/lower head) to
drill a hole approximately 4 mm deep.
Do not move the position of the plotter head in the Y axis again.
› Use the arrow buttons in BoardMaster to move the plotter head
approximately 25 mm in the positive X direction and define this
position as the new Home position:
Open the MACHINE SETTINGS... dialog box in BoardMaster via
CONFIGURATION, SETTINGS , select UNLOCK and click on the
SET HOME button. (see also the section entitled Programming the
HOME position in LPKF BoardMaster )
› Move along the X axis to the second, rear registration hole strip and
drill a hole approximately 4 mm deep there too. It is imperative that
you do not move in the Y direction. Select a distance suitable for
working with a standard base material. For example, an A4 board is
297 mm, so a registration hole 5 mm from the edge of board gives a
distance between the holes of 287 mm. Simple method:
› Enter the value 287 in the STEP WIDTH box in BoardMaster and
then press the arrow button.
The plotter head moves in one 287 mm step to the new position.
› Now remove the drilling tool by selecting a different tool in
BoardMaster .
› Move the plotter head to the side. Insert two alignment pins in the
holes now made in the registration hole strip.
Please check that the pins are positioned securely as any play has a
detrimental effect on alignment accuracy.
› Mark old holes with a felt pen so they cannot be confused with the
new ones.
› Position the previously drilled base material and drilling backing over
the alignment pins.
The format of the base material should be selected so that the
registration hole strip does not need to be moved more than 10 mm.
Moving the registration hole strip more than 10 mm reduces the
accuracy of the registration hole system.
