Starting AutoSite

To prepare AutoSite for a session, follow the procedure below.

Note: If you have not used AutoSite for a while, or if you suspect AutoSite might

have been moved from one area to another, follow the procedure below

before you use AutoSite.

1. Ensure that AutoSite is set up as described in Chapter 2, “Setup and

Installation.”

2. Select and insert a programming module (or Base) into the pin driver

head. Make sure the programming module (or Base) is locked in

place.

3. Connect the pin driver head to the handler.

4. Power up AutoSite. (The powerup operation is described in detail on

page 2-28.)

5. Verify that AutoSite and the controlling software are communicating.

You are now ready to begin a session on AutoSite.

Changing a Programming Module: Overview

The procedure for changing a programming module depends on the

manufacturer of the handler you are using with AutoSite. See the

documentation supplied with your handler for information on changing

a programming module.

To prevent damage to AutoSite and to make changing programming

modules easier, we suggest that you keep the following items in mind

while changing a programming module:

• Make sure the handler is idle

• Wear a properly grounded antistatic wrist strap while working with

the programming module and the pin driver head

• Do not touch the gold pins exposed when you remove a

programming module from the pin driver head

• Do not block the fan on the side of the pin driver head

• If necessary, disconnect the 50-pin and 68-pin cables from the pin

driver head to gain better access to the pin driver head

• Do not use the device socket or connectors on the programming

module as a leverage point

• Store programming modules in a static safe area when not in use or

when removed from the pin driver head

Note: You may need to change hardware on your handler when you change

programming modules on AutoSite. See your handler manual for more

information.

Safety Information

This information is provided as a supplement to the Safety Summary at

the beginning of this manual.

The circuitry housed inside the pin driver head and the control unit, and

the devices AutoSite programs are static sensitive and can be damaged by

electrostatic discharge (ESD). To help minimize the effects of ESD, we

suggest you wear an antistatic wrist strap while you follow the

procedures described in this section.

For best performance, the antistatic wrist strap should be connected to a

properly grounded antistatic workstation and the wrist strap should

contain a 1 M

Ω

(minimum) to 10 M

Ω

(maximum) isolating resistor.

Follow the steps below to change the programming module on a

ProMaster 2000.

1. Make sure the handler is idle.

2. Clear all devices from the handler.

3. Loosen the thumbscrews that hold the pin driver head to the pin

driver head mounting plate and carefully remove the pin driver head

from the pin driver head mounting plate. The thumbscrews are

located at each end of the pin driver head mounting plate.

4. Slide the clamp ring off the pin driver head. Set the clamp ring aside;

you will need it later.

5. Remove the old programming module. Set the old programming

module aside.

CAUTION: Do not touch the pins that are exposed when you remove the

programming module.

6. As shown in Figure 3-1, set the new programming module onto the

pin driver head, making sure the guide pins on the pin driver head

line up with the guide holes in the programming module.

Note: If you are using a programming module for the first time, and you

purchased the programming module after you purchased your AutoSite,

(i.e., you didn’t order the programming module and the AutoSite at the

same time) you must perform a one-time procedure to unlock the

programming module before you can use it.

Continue with the installation. At the appropriate time, a note in this

manual will tell you when to unlock the new programming module.
