19 - Optional Accessories
To satisfy the needs of different customers Nordson YESTECH offers optional accessories for
purchase to enhance the capabilities of the inspection machines. After installing an option, you
need to enable the software interface from the System Options dialog, accessible by selecting
System>Options from the main menu in Recipe Programmer mode.
19.1 X-Ray
The X-ray option should always be enabled for X2/X3 AXI system.
Click the Setup button right next to the X-Ray checkbox in the System Options dialog to launch
the X-Ray Control dialog.
19-2 Optional Accessories
Communication Port is always set to COM2 for X2/X3. The external X-Ray controller is
connected to the computer through a serial port. For X2/X3, COM1 is normally setup for the
conveyor width-adjust motor.
Auto-shutoff Duration specifies how long till the X-ray is turned off once the system is on idle.
Setting up this parameter will extend the life of X-Ray tube as well as X-Ray cameras.
Total X-Ray On Time, Current X-Ray On Time, Total Warm Up Time and Current Warm
Up Time show the information about how long the X-Ray’s been turned on and warmed up.
Adjust Power Level launches the Adjust Power Level dialog. The current, voltage and spot size
of each power level is displayed.
The Image Display/Capture Options group shows the available options for X-Ray cameras.
Since X2 and X3 use different X-Ray cameras, some options may be different for these two
systems.

Live Display: Integrate sets up the number of image frames for live display. For X2 the number
is normally set to 4 and for X3, the number is set to 1.
Image Capture: Average sets up the average number of frames for a captured image. A larger
number will make the image less noisy but takes more time to capture. For X2 the number is
normally set to either 4 or 8. For X3, the number is set to 1 most of the time.
X-ray Capture Delay sets up the specific time period the system will wait, after motion is
complete, to start capturing an X-ray image. This number is set to 0 by default. In case the
system has a vibration issue, a small number (i.e. 10 or 20) can be put into this field to delay the
image capture process. This option affects the X-ray image capture only.
Auto Contrast and Real Time Sharpening are applied to manual inspection only. For inline
inspection, these two options should not be turned on.
Xray Correction and Gray Correction should be turned on most of the time for X3 and turned
off for X2.
Update Dark Image is for X3 only. When the X-Ray is turned off and within X-Ray view, click
this button once to update the dark image buffer in computer memory. Normally there is no need
to update dark image during run time.
Save D. Image to Disk is for X3 only. This button saves the updated dark image to hard disk so
the update becomes permanent.
The low threshold bar and high threshold bars are for X3 only. The X-Ray camera has a
dynamic range of 0 and 4095. In most situations inspections are done on 8bit gray scale images
only. Therefore there is a need to convert the original 16bit image with a range of 0 and 4095, to
an 8bit image with a range of 0 and 255. The low threshold and high threshold are two threshold
values that perform the conversion. Original gray scale values in between the low and high
threshold will be linearly scaled to a number between 0 and 255. Original gray values too small
or too big will be converted to either 0 or 255.
NOTE
To keep the consistency of image qualities, make sure to use 0 for low threshold
and 511 for high threshold all the time.
19.2 Print Barcode Label (YESTrack)
For users who do not serialize their boards with barcode, but still want to utilize the offline line
review and rework features of the YesAX, can purchase the YESTrack option. This option prints
out the board’s serial number on a barcode label. You can put this label on the defective boards.
On the rework station the operator can just scan the barcode to pull up the record for this board
to perform rework.
When you purchase this option Nordson YESTECH will supply an Avery personal label printer.
This software option can work with any Windows XP compatible label printer that may be
purchased separately.
Because the normal report and the barcode labels use different printers, use the following steps to
set the printer selection:
