3 Getting Started
Before using Setup Selection Assistant take the time to get familiar with this tool to find out its
possibilities and how it can support your production process.
Setup Selection Assistant can be used intuitively by an operator but should be understood by the
manufacturing engineer.
3.1 Scenarios for the Use of Setup Selection Assistant
Setup Selection Assistant is a tool delivered with Setup Center to support the handling of reduced setup
(also called partial setups).
Reduced setups are derived from setups being reduced to the component spectrum required for products
to be produced now. Use cases are:
• A family setup contains different products but only some of these products are to be produced
today. This concept is practiced by customers having products to be produced regularly. The
setup is optimized once and the tact of each product is known making planning easier.
• Another scenario is that the customer has a product in different variants and one setup optimized
covering all of these variants. In case one product needs to be produced only the components for
this specific product variant are set up.
Avoiding the setup of components which are not required saves much time and reduces the unnecessary
usage of material from stock.
The Setup Selection Assistant allows the creation of the reduced setup as the initial step in the whole
setup and production process. Therefore
• Setup Report
• SIPLACE Pro / Line Control
• Station Software (feeder reference run, component level indicator)
only work with a reduced setup not confusing the operator with components in the SIPLACE Pro Setup /
Station GUI which do not exist in the physical setup.
The user scope is:
• Setup Operators

Modified SIPLACE Pro Data are:
• Setups / Tables / Jobs (only copied)
• Production Schedule (modified)
As a part of the concept Setup Selection Assistant creates copies of the data to be modified into own
SIPLACE Pro folder starting with “Setup Center”. Customers with safety awareness can modify the
access rights for these folders to make sure no original data is modified / destroyed by the setup
operators.

Step 2: Select Job
It all starts with the selection of a job – the job is used as a container around the board sides to be
produced and around the setup.
Figure 6 "Job Selection" page
The job was originally created to optimize the setup for some recipes to produce. If the setup is to be
used in the future its job will be maintained so recipes can be added or removed and the setup can be
optimized again.
Setup Selection Assistant uses the folder “Setup Center” as a working folder in SIPLACE Pro. If you
select a job outside of this folder a copy of this job and its recipes will be created and moved into the
working folder with the name convention “Setup Center\<Line name>\<Setup name>”. If you open such a
copy located in the folder “Setup Center” no additional copy will be created – the job will be only opened
for editing.
