SIPLACE Setup Center 2.2 Installation Manual
4.1.3 Forced Setup Verification
The Activation CD activates the forced setup verification and the component level indicator at the
SIPLACE placement machine.
The forced setup verification monitors the verification status of individual tracks. Non-verified
tracks are disabled to force setup verification.
The component level indicator identifies the component fill level for each track, and updates the
fill level for each track at the end of each PCB. Further, it manages threshold values for each
track and stops the pick up process, if a threshold is reached.
4.1.4 Docking Station
The docking station is the link between the X-Series changeover table and the X-Series feeder
and forms the communication point between SC PC and feeders/changeover tables. Docking
stations supply the feeders with compressed air and energy. Data transfer is via a CAN-Bus
cable.
There are various docking stations, for the different table types:
• Docking station for X-Series tables
4.2 System configuration
There are several different recommended installation scenarios for SIPLACE Setup Center. The
installation depends on the working area where SIPLACE Setup Center will be used and on other
conditions as described below.
4.2.1 SIPLACE Pro
It is recommended that at least the SIPLACE Pro Interface (SPI) is installed on the system.
SIPLACE Setup Center works with SIPLACE Pro 2.0. 2.1, 3.1 and 3.2, but it uses different files,
depending on the SIPLACE Pro version.
Further information about this is given in the according installation steps for SIPLACE Setup
Center GUI.
4.2.2 Setup Center Database
Before the first installation you must decide which type of data management will be used. The
following decision tree should give you support with this decision. Please read through the
questions thoroughly and follow the appropriate result path. As a result you get the recommended
kind of installation for the SIPLACE Setup Center database.

Questions:
• Do the packaging units have Unique ID barcodes?
Each packaging unit in the factory must be marked with a unique barcode. It is possible that
the unique ID is part of a combined barcode.
• Do you validate the setup in a pre-setup area?
The pre-setup area is used to validate the setup for correctness and completeness. The
validated tables are docked to the production line(s) for use.
• Local database (MSDE)
This scenario does track the numbers of components on each packaging unit. The current
number of components are “remembered” when the packaging unit is torn down. If the
packaging unit is moved to another line the other Setup Center system does not know this
reel and will start with the start quantity. Therefore the operator need to check each partially
fractured packaging unit he gets from the stock and need to adjust the quantity if necessary.
This scenario offers a higher amount of operation safety, because the SIPLACE Setup Center
and a local MSDE database are installed to different computers for each production line. If
one component of SIPLACE Setup Center encounters an error, only one production line is
affected.
• Central database
The SIPLACE Setup Center database can be installed to any available Microsoft SQL Server
2000 (SP3a). In this case, the customer is responsible to set up a backup & recovery strategy
and must provide an operating Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (SP3a).

SIPLACE Setup Center 2.2 Installation Manual
• Database Version
The database is upgraded by the installation. In this step, the current verification data is
deleted and the setup must be verified again after the installation. All data that is connected
to unique IDs (Unique IDs for packaging units and change over tables) will be kept in the
database. This means that after re-verifying the fill-levels of the packaging units are restored.
The database version for SIPLACE Setup Center 2.2 is 1.0.1.5.
The database version for SIPLACE Setup Center 2.1 is 1.0.1.4.
The database version for SIPLACE Setup Center 2.0 is 1.0.1.3.
When working with identical component lots (without Unique IDs), the fill-levels of
the packaging units must be restored manually after the installation (fill-level
corrections).
Database Backup & Recovery Strategy
The setup automatically creates two database jobs, which backup the SIPLACE Setup Center
database. The first job ‘Full backup’ executes a backup of the database and several maintenance
tasks. The job starts every week Sunday at 00.00. The second job ‘Delta backup’ executes only a
backup of the database and starts every day, except Sunday at 00:00. During the backup
SIPLACE Setup Center database is locked and the Setup Center GUI have to wait until unlock.
The backups are stored in “C:\Programme\Siemens SIPLACE\SIPLACE Setup Center\Database”.
A job completion event is written to the Windows application log. More details are written to the
file “SiplaceSetupCenterReport.txt” in the database directory.
4.2.3 Setup Center GUI
It is recommended to install SIPLACE Setup Center GUI once for each line and pre-setup area.
With the “central database” scenario these can use the same database at the same time.
It is recommended to use two barcode scanners per line and SIPLACE Setup Center GUI
installation.
4.2.4 Forced Setup Verification
Activate the forced setup verification at the placement station if it is necessary.
