Yup, that sounds right. I did try one with red on top on one side and white on top on the other side. Oops, blew a capacitor out of the back of the base. If anyone else Has these, here's how it goes to make them work: Top pin on both sides = +12V

We are not using SN100C in our reflow process but I know the type of flux made a big difference with our SAC305 solder. We started out using no-clean flux in our SAC305 paste and were having some issues. We then switched over to a water soluble flu

Thanks very much everyone. > > I'll try out a > 5mil and see how that goes. If you are using 6mil stencil and you are saying that you need more on the 0603 parts then you might want to look at your squeege pressure. What kind of squeege blades ar

Hi all, I used to be able to set a base program when optimizing in the MCS so that the new program would have the common feeders in the same location as the original... with a few exeptions. I'm trying to do this in the F4G and it is not working. I

I've got an issue, i can't seem to figure out. I think I need to apply a global offset to all my placements for some reason, and I would like to know why, before I do it. nozzles work, picks seem ok, but the placements are off by about 1/2 the widt

Having a problem at power up, that our Philips Topaz X displays "DOWNLOAD IO STN.DATA NG" in red. It times out after about 5 minutes, then comes up. When we try to find the origin, it gives an error that the "Head Down sensor is OFF". If we go int

Forgot to mention. To disable the LCS you need to disable it in the machine config - by changing Tray Changer to NONE. Of course for this you will need the password which is "specialist". After setting this in the software, you also need to remove t

If you are going to coat very low volumes then just spray it by hand. The automated machines just won't be worth it unless you are going to do a very large run. They are complicated, require constant attention, still require masking the board and are

Bobpan and all future people with this problem, GOTO 0 Fixed the problem. It also counts boards now. I never knew why it didn't count the boards run. Haven't looked in the manuals, but I would bet that it shows this plainly. This makes sense,

I have continued to try and make this work, but I've had no success. I have tried everything that everyone has suggested. It might be the component height, but I can't change that. I guess I could increase the resistor thinkness, and add some heig
