8.3.3 Checking the hex values
Å From the ‘Measuring Mode’ menu (see Fig. 8 - 5 on page 64), click on the ‘Hex entries ...’
button.
ATTENTION: 8
Only people with sufficient technical knowledge should change the parameters shown in Fig.
8 - 9. 8
Only the ‘Size’ and ‘Lead’ check boxes must be checked in the ‘Measuring Mode 2’ menu. The
parameters shown in Fig. 8 - 9
must be entered. 8

The error ‘Component length outside tolerance’ occasionally occurs with 0402 components. This
is generally caused by dirty nozzles.
It can also occasionally occur with 0402 components with a dark body and very narrow leads,
even though the nozzles are clean. In this case, you should change parameter P2a under ‘Size’
from 10 to 11.

8.4 Checking the lead dimensions
Å From the ‘Test Component’ menu (see Fig. 8 - 3 on page 62), click on the ‘Lead Dimensions>’
button. The ‘Lead Dimensions’ video image appears, together with the parameters.
Å Check the set values
– optical length: 0.95 mm (up to 1 mm is possible)
– optical width: 0.45 mm (up to 0.5 mm is possible)
Å Press ESC to exit the ‘Lead Dimensions’ option.

8.5 Checking the illumination values
Å From the ‘Test Component’ menu (see Fig. 8 - 3 on page 62), click on the ‘Illumination’ button.
The ‘Illumination’ video image appears.
Å Use the ‘tab’ key to select the illumination level.
The brightness is displayed for each level. The values should be as follows:
Å Press ‘ESC’ to exit the ‘Illumination’ option and return to the main view.
9 Solder paste application
9.1 Mask printing
During solder paste printing with metal stencils, all the solder is deposited on a PCB in a single
pass. The solder paste is thoroughly mixed, and then ‘rolled’ over the metal stencil with the pattern
to be printed using a squeegee. The motion of the squeegee presses solder paste through the
apertures in the stencil and onto the PCB below.
9.2 Properties of the stencil
Å Use a laser-cut stainless steel stencil for placing 0402 components, and note the following rule
of thumb for the shape of the apertures:
