I have seen the bad alignment error many times and never had to replace the head for it. It usually has something to do with the laser windows being dirty or cracked. Also it could be your profile settings. Make sure all of these things are perfect b

I believe the Led's should flash 3 times when the card is booting up/ powering up normally. There was no board troubleshooting back in the day and we just replaced the card. Make sure the metal cover is grounded to the machine.....this sometimes caus

Thanks bobpan. As we're a real small shop, I'd like to try and repair the board myself. Does anyone know where I can get a set of maintenance/repair manuals for a Quad 4C? At least the schematics for the Quad Align board would help for

Hi bobpan, Just wanted to follow up on my problem. With a bit of reverse engineering, I was able to troubleshhot my board to a faulty trace between the EEPROM and DSP chip. Since it was an 'inner layer' trace I had no choice but to 'green wire' i

Hi All, I have a Quad 4C that the quadalign processor started acting up on. Where the Hand Held Progrmmer would hang at "Laser Align Init" when you first turn the machine on. A couple of times I was able to get it running by pressing the re

It's not the z pickup or profile bot thanks for the help, I think Mike is right. I have used these profiles hundreds if not thousands of times in the past and never had an issue. Also it was different components and different profiles almost every ti

What is the base cost of an inline pcb etcher? Specs: fiducial alignment, smema interface, 400mm x 400mm marking area. Will be used to mark panel 2d codes, pcb array 2d codes, and human readable. Thanks Gm

Ken, Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I am in Mexico and we make our own PCBs. That is another conversation entirely and another of my fix-it projects but currently we drill the PCBs and align the artwork to the holes visually

OK, with my masterful powers of deduction, I have been able to resolve the problem. Upon further investigation, it became apparent that the issue was restricted to those components that had the laser alignment level in the component data set to -0.2

Cyberoptics cameras and laser alignment systems are very popular and used in a lot of machines. So weird, but there is absolutely no technical information available and even in the company's web site they don't exist. Some models like the Hawkeye cam
