Thanks to those that responded. I eliminated the light curtain problem. The metal plate the light curtain pcb bolts to was bent. I had it aligned in our machine shop and it worked properly. I forgot to mention the error was pooping up with no fee

Hi all, I just finished programming a board in this AOI machine and I'm getting the same IC rejected in every board with this error: Inspection window out of frame range. I don't know how to fix this because the frames get generated automatically

I appreciate the detailed reply. However, I had tried dimensioning the stencil to everything imaginable, including the correct/measured dimensions. Interestingly enough, after loading a new stencil into our adaptor, I had no errors with the new pro

Check to see if there's a loose cable, or something, that's randomly setting off the light curtain. We occasionally have that problem with some of our flex or 12/16 mags in our TP9, where the tape take up clip is loose (nothing in that feeder) and i
