Programming

This section provides how-to procedures for the most commonly performed programming tasks. Refer to “How to 
Create and Run a Program” for an example of how to use the dispensing software to create a complete program. If 
you have difficulty creating a program for your application, contact your Nordson EFD representative. Before using 
this section:

•  Complete all applicable installation tasks. Refer to “Installation” on page 18. 
•  Complete all required setup tasks. Refer to “Setup” on page 43.
•  Refer to “Concepts” on page 25 for important robot programming concepts and for an overview of the 

dispensing software screens and icons.

How to Create and Run a Program

The procedure provides the basic steps for creating and running a program. Every program is different. Use these 
basic steps and refer to “How to Create Patterns” on page 66 and “Appendix A, Command Function Reference” 
on page 108 to create the desired application pattern for the workpiece or group of workpieces.

PREREQUISITES

 

‡

The system is properly set up. Refer to “Setting Up and Calibrating the System (Required)” on page 47.

 

‡

If the tip or any element of the Z axis head was changed, repeat system setup and calibration using the Robot 
Initial Setup wizard. Refer to “Setting Up the System Using the Robot Initial Setup Wizard” on page 48.

 

‡

The system is in the correct mode (Tip or CCD).

 

‡

A workpiece is properly positioned on the fixture plate.
