3. Select the factory, line, NXT machine and then first module in the [Module list]. A list of
the available boards and lanes is displayed in the [Board skip settings] list.
4. Select the check boxes for the lane and boards to be skipped.
Note: Check boxes for multiple boards can be selected by using the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key. First, hold
down the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and left-click on the number of the desired boards to highlight
those boards. Then, release the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and select the check box for any one of
the highlighted boards. This will automatically select the check boxes for all highlighted
boards.
5. Click [OK] to apply the skip settings and then close MEdit.
Note: The new skip setting is only applied to panels that are loaded in the module after this setting
is made.
6. Begin production and load the panels for which the board skip is to be applied.
When boards are specified to be skipped, the skipped boards are displayed in the operation
panels on the modules. Confirm that the boards to be skipped are correct. Be sure to
remove the skip setting when switching to a production lot in which the previously skipped
board is to be produced.
6.6.2 Skipping feeders (from NXT V2.95)
Use this function to skip all the parts from a feeder. This allows production to be completed
for panels when parts are no longer available for the parts that have run out. It is important
to note the following points about this function.
• When parts are skipped, the panel is completed without placing the skipped
parts.
• This function should only be used if it absolutely necessary to skip a part to
complete production such as when a certain part runs out and will be placed on
the panel at a later time once new parts are received.
• This function is designed to be used by line management personnel.

Skipping a feeder on a module.
1. As soon as a part supply runs out during production, the machine waits for the parts to
be supplied in a "recovery up" status. Perform the following steps only if parts are not
available to be resupplied.
2. Push CYCLE STOP at the module in question to stop production for that module.
3. Start MEdit and select [Feeder skip] from the [Tool] menu. The [Feeder skip] dialog box
is displayed.
4. Select the factory, line, NXT machine, and the module in the [Module list]. A list of the
available feeders is displayed in the [Feeder skip settings] list.
5. Select the check box for the feeder with the parts to be skipped.
Note: Check boxes for multiple feeders can be selected by using the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key. First, hold
down the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and left-click on the number of the desired feeders to highlight
those feeders. Then, release the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and select the check box for any one
of the highlighted feeders. This will automatically select the check boxes for all highlighted
feeders.
6. Click [Set] to apply the skip setting and then close MEdit.
Note: If a place before setting is set for a skipped part, the place before setting is disabled.
Simultaneously skip the 2 related feeders for the "place before" setting.
7. Push START at the module in question to restart production. Production is continued
without placing parts from the skipped feeder position.
Note: It is not necessary to have a feeder in the skipped position in order to continue production.
However, it is necessary to have an empty drawer set in the skip position if a tray part is
skipped on a tray unit-L.
All of the LEDs for the feeder position are turned on for skipped feeder positions. For tray
parts, skipped positions have a white numbers and the part comment text is grey in the
parts out guidance screen.
Clearing the skip setting for a feeder on a module.
1. Push CYCLE STOP at the module before the module with the skipped part (this
prevents any new panels from being loaded into the next module).
2. Wait until all panels are unloaded from the module with the feeder skip and then push
CYCLE STOP on that module.
3. Start MEdit and select [Feeder skip] from the [Tool] menu. The [Feeder skip] dialog box
is displayed.
4. Select the factory, line, NXT machine, and the module with the skipped feeder in the
[Module list]. A list of the available feeders is displayed in the [Feeder skip settings] list.
5. Clear the check box for the feeder with the parts that are being skipped.
6. Click [Set] to apply the cleared skip setting and then close MEdit.
Note: If a place before setting is set, be sure to clear the skip settings simultaneously for the 2
related feeders with the "place before" setting.
7. Set the new parts in the module in the specified position.
8. Push START at the module in question to restart production. Production is continued
and the newly supplied parts are placed.

6.6.3 Skipping holders (from NXT V3.00)
Use this function to skip using a holder for a head on a module. This function makes it
possible to not use a specified holder in order to avoid using a holder at which frequent
errors occur during production or for which air leakage or clogging problems prevent normal
use. In addition, the holder skip function serves as a calibration information backup
measure. It is important to note the following points about this function.
• A holder skip status is canceled when a head change occurs.
• A holder for which calibration using a jig nozzle has not been completed cannot
be skipped.
• The holder skip function cannot be used for the H01 head, or in cases where a
skip would leave no remaining nozzles for production.
• The holder skip function cannot be used in cases where the Q-axis and/or R-
axis are not operating normally or in cases such as mechanical valve failure, in
which other holders remain unaffected.
• Recovery processing occurs for parts that were supposed to be placed by the
skipped holder. Therefore, the skip function reduces throughput.
• When skipping a holder due to a holder failure, verify that the other holders are
operating normally.
• The nozzle in the skipped holder is returned to the nozzle station. If the nozzle
cannot be returned to the station due to some failure, remove the nozzle by
hand.
• It is possible that an accuracy deviation may occur using a head after a failed
holder has been skipped.
Skipping a holder on a head.
1. If START has not yet been pushed and the main screen is displayed after turning on the
power, push START to turn on the power to the head. Then stop the machine.
2. Ensure that the main screen is displayed at the module.
3. Start MEdit and select [Holder skip] from the [Tool] menu. The [Holder skip] dialog box
is displayed.
4. Select the factory, line, NXT machine, and the module in the [Module list]. A list of the
available holders on the head is displayed in the [Holder lists].
5. Select the check box for the holder to be skipped.
Note: Check boxes for multiple holders can be selected by using the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key. First, hold
down the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and left-click on the number of the desired holders to highlight
those holders. Then, release the [Shift] or [Ctrl] key and select the check box for any one of
the highlighted holders. This will automatically select the check boxes for all highlighted
holders.
6. Click [Set] to apply the skip setting and then close MEdit.
7. Push START at the module in question to restart production. Production is continued
without using the skipped holder.
Note: If the skipped holder is holding a part, discard it. Return the nozzle to the nozzle station if
necessary.
