Automatic Tray Feeder
There is an automatic Tray Feeder option available for the PS System.
Chapter 2 discusses setting it up; operation is discussed here.
Operating the TF20 Automatic Tray Feeder
[TF20 only] As an option, the PS System can be configured with an
Automatic Tray Feeder. Only basic operation of the TF20 Automatic
Tray Feeder is described here.
To start the TF20:
1. Plug the TF20 power cable and air line into the PS System. Refer
to Figure 2-8 on page 2–11.
2. Manually initializing the Tray Feeder—
2a. After power up, four LEDs on the feeder operator interface light
up. Initializing the feeder enables a choice between normal
(Fast) mode and slow mode.
To enable slow mode, momentarily press the INDEX 1 and INDEX 2
buttons simultaneously.
To enable normal mode, momentarily press the ELEV button. Once
the speed is set in this way, the LEDs dim and the run mode will
be maintained until the power to the feeder has been removed.
3. Verify that the Thick/Thin switch correctly matches the type of
JEDEC trays used: thick trays or thin.
Note: If the Thick/Thin switch is set incorrectly, the feeding mech-
anism will jam and cause an error condition (blinking orange
LED).
CAUTION: Trays or devices might get damaged and the Tray
Feeder might be difficult to restart if an orange LED error occurs
and the feeder is not stopped immediately. Press the Stop button
immediately if the orange LED illuminates.
• If the blue LED (indicating Full or Empty) is illuminated and
steady (not blinking), the lower input stack is out of trays. Open
the tray access door and place one or more trays in the lower
input stack. Close the door. The elevator automatically begins to
move up to a normal run position.
• If the blue LED is illuminated and blinking, the TF20 upper out-
put stack is full of trays. Remove the trays from the upper out-
put stack.
• If the yellow LED is illuminated and not blinking (indicating an
inhibit condition), the elevator access door might be open: close
it.
Note: The TF20 can be reloaded with trays at any time.
For detailed information,
see the Tray Feeder
Owner’s Manual that
came with your
PS System.

Loading Trays when the Stack is Empty
When the last tray is moved to the pick/place position, the lower
input stack is empty and the blue LED illuminates steady. The ele-
vator then drives down to its lower limit. It is best to reload the TF20
at this time or earlier.
If you do not reload the TF20 and the PS System continues to operate,
the last tray is returned to the upper output stack and the TF20 and
the PS System automatically stop.
Loading Trays before the Stack is Empty
1. If the TF20 is not empty, press the Elevator Down button. The
TF20 automatically goes to an inhibit mode, and the elevator
begins driving down toward its lower limit.
2. Open the elevator access door and insert one or more trays.
3. Close the elevator door and the elevator begins moving up to a
normal run position. Once the elevator has reached the normal
run position, the TF20 starts automatically.
Unloading Trays
When the upper output stack reaches its maximum capacity, the TF20
stops automatically and the blue LED begins blinking. Unload the
TF20 at this time (earlier is okay). Once the trays have been removed,
press the Inhibit button to resume normal operation. If you do not
unload the TF20 it goes into idle mode.
If the blue LED is steady (not blinking), the upper output stack has
room to accept more trays. If you wish to remove trays anyway, press
the Inhibit button and wait until the yellow LED illuminates.
Note: The inhibit mode prevents the TF20 from cycling a tray
while you are removing trays.
The TF20 can be
unloaded without inter-
ruption to the operation
of the PS System.

mation, see the Tray
Feeder Instruction Man-
ual that came with your
system.

Administrator Functions
Administrators are responsible for creating Tasks in TaskLink™ and
other functions not performed by operators. Administrators would
likely perform these functions:
• Creating Security Profiles, below
• Creating a Task in TaskLink, below
• (Optional) Do a First Article Test on page 3-32
• (Optional) Set TaskLink to Operator Mode on page 3-33
• Teaching the Reference Vision File on page 3-34
• Teaching the Package File on page 3-40
• Get Movetimes/Optimize Movetimes on page 3-51
• Monitoring Statistics on page 3-52
• Maximizing Programming Yields on page 3-57
• (Optional) Creating a Data File from a Master Device on page 3-58
• (Optional) Creating a Label Printer File on page 3-60
• (Optional) Creating a Laser Marking File on page 3-62
• Automotive Performance Pak on page 3-69
These functions are discussed in this section.
Creating Security Profiles
The Security Dialog in AH500 manages user profiles to control secu-
rity by allowing different rights to be assigned to each profile.
To create a new profile:
1. In the Security Dialog, use the drop-down arrow to select Super-
visor.
2. Enter the password.
3. Click Edit Users.
4. Type a name into the Name field.
5. Type a password into the Password field.
6. Check the box next to each stated right (privilege) for the new
user. For example: if the new user is to create new Vision Files
for jobs, check Teach Vision.
7. Click Save (the diskette image).
Creating a Task in TaskLink
Task is the TaskLink term for a set of instructions to complete a pro-
gramming job. Tasks, which are stored in a Task database file (*.TSK),
contain all the information necessary for programming and testing
specific devices with a specific algorithm. Information contained in a
Task includes:
• Device settings - identifies a specific device (or family of devices
to select from)
• Data settings - Data file name
The Security Dialog
opens above the SETUP
Window after clicking
Start on the AH500
Startup Window.
