Hello Bobpan, Thanks for the response. 1. Function 30 gives me a consistent 182-185, even after nozzle changes. I can vary this by changing mod code 15 and I have been advised to aim for 90-110, but it doesn't seem to make any difference so I've go

I have a problem setting up the LAE on my Quad 4c. I set it up for 0805, and it seems to work, although it rejects a lot of parts, at least it places "most" of them. I tried setting up on a soic14, and could not get even one to pass. I believe I h

Mod code 7 is a placement delay.....changing it will slow your entire program down. If you just want to slow it down for 1 placement.....you have to insert a mod code change in the sequence steps....this is easily done in central controller. Good L

Sounds like its just rejecting parts. Either the length and width of the component is wrong or the tolerance is set too tight. I don't remember the function codes to edit the tolerance but I left them at 30% (the max) and never had any problems with

It sounds like the vac-verify is not working. There is a command on the hht to turn it off. When turning off your hht will show either 'idle' or enter command' without the V showing anymore. Maybe try the cntrl and vacuum or shift and vacuum. If its

Hello Marcelo, When you initialize the system in central controller...does it see mvs? Will a different job that you ran before work or does the same error happen? When do you see this error. You can email me at http://www.precision-repairs.com if y

My recollection of the 4c is fuzzy but I know that there's a ribbon cable on the head that gets some abuse when the head rotates. Seems like mine would eventually break at the crimps and I had to replace it a few times. Eventually I bought the parts

Hi, I'm using a "ye olde" Quad 4c Mk2 built in 1995 for eight years. During that period I had to change 3 HDD (now it runs a compact flash with and free DOS), 3 Z-rod bellows,3 laser heads, some monitors, nozzles and misc parts. Despite that it has t

Hello all, Finally ready to run my first 14 up array and the machine picks up the part moves to the placement location, them moves to home and drops the part. The Z axis never moves. I do get a "run error 1" at about the 4th placement (if it was a
