Known Facts / Problems (General) Recovery Placement

34 Software Version Description SIPLACE Setup Center 2.3

7.1.10 Recovery Placement

Setup Center 2.3 cannot work with modus Recovery Placement.

7.2 Known Facts / Problems (General)

7.2.1 Setup Verification

 It is a requirement that feeders are not pulled out or switched during setup verification. To put it

differently, as long as setup verification takes place for a single track, the feeder and the

corresponding packaging units must remain in the same location.

 Urgent recommendation: when splicing a reel it must be verified immediatly (refill mode). A danger

exsit when extremely bad pickup rates occur and the CLI has small threshold values then unverified

components maybe placed. If a Splice is detected, the "active" function is available on the station

computer but should not be used. If no Splice sensors are installed the remaining quantity of a tape

running should be checked and corrected before splicing.

 Use of the table check causes active component data to be overwritten at the station. This can reslt

in the lost of trace data if two reels are active on the track.

7.2.2 Quantity management

 Quantity management for tray loaders is not supported.

 If a reel does not have a unique ID barcode, the system can not differentiate between two elements

with identical quantities. If the packaging unit is taken from the feeder, information about the

remaining level is lost or unclear. It is no longer possible to monitor the quantities on the reels. If a

reel which was in this setup is then set up again, the user will need to manually correct the

component level with the help of the Component Level Indicator (CLI).

 Wenn keine Gebindegröße als Barcode definiert ist, wird die Mengenangabe der Bauelemente aus

SIPLACE Pro verwendet. Die Mengeninformationen der Gehäuseform aus SIPLACE Pro werden

ignoriert.

7.2.3 Feeder

 Tray feeders only support one component per level in the towers.

 It is not possible to refill a level in an MTC or WPC. Refilling can only take place by replacing the

whole tray.

 During Online Verification, the tray feeders WPC and MTC1 will only support a limited, forced setup

verification, since levels could otherwise be released by activation at the station.

 The tape feeder 12/16 mm S tape feeder module and 24/32 mm S tape feeder module are only

supported, if the feeder type (e.g. 12mm S) remains the same in all setups used.

 After a foil got torn at an X-feeder the new packaging unit will get activated without any new

verification. This is also the case when forced verification is activated. The activation can be

configured with or without scanning.

7.2.4 Line computer

 The line computer is not supported.

SIPLACE Pro Known Facts / Problems (General)

Software Version Description SIPLACE Setup Center 2.3

7.2.5 SIPLACE Pro

 The station-wise download of SIPLACE Pro is not supported.

 The barcode modus of SIPLACE Line Control 2.x is not supported.

 SIPLACE Pro 4.0 is not supported by Setup Center 2.3.

 Setup Center references objects in SIPLACE Pro by names and is therefore unable to find them

again, if the names are subsequently changed.

 The names of SIPLACE Pro objects in Setup Center are case-sensitive. Always observe the correct

case!

 In general, Setup Center doesn’t actively react to changes made in SIPLACE Pro. This means that

all actions like renaming, moving, changing objects are not tracked by Setup Center. After having

done changes in SIPLACE Pro, Setup Center needs to reload the setups. In case of Online

Verification, Setup Center has to be restarted, in case of Offline Verification it is sufficient to close

and reopen the setup. In case of renaming of lines the line configuration must be modified in the

setting dialog. Currently, only change that is actively recognized is the addition of a barcode to a

component.

 SIPLACE Pro Server Selection Tool The SIPLACE Pro Server Selection Tool does not support

SIPLACE Pro 4.1 and higher.

7.2.6 Length of setup names

 The length of setup names is limited to 20-50 characters, i.e. only the first 20 or 50 characters are

looked at when there is a setup change.

7.2.7 SMV

 Do not use special characters [ \ / : * ? „ < > | ] for the names of setups, lines and stations, as SMV

is unable to process these. SMV interface is used in the machines of the S-, F-, HS- and HF-Series.

7.2.8 Docking Station

 A CAN-Bus – PCI Card is necessary to connect the docking station. This card enables you to

connect a maximum of 8 docking stations. The card supports 2 CAN-Busses so that 4 docking

stations can be connected to each bus. A maximum of one CAN-Bus – PCI Card per computer is

possible.

 If the CAN Bus is not properly terminated, problems may arise when trying to connect.

Stationssoftware Max. length of setup names

407 / 503 20 characters excluding path data

408 / 505 / 601 / 604 50 characters including path data

NOTE:

We recommend entering a unique setup name in SIPLACE Pro. Otherwise a setup change is

not recognized by Setup Center.

NOTE:

The station name must be unique within a line. The line name must be unique throughout the

TraceHost system.

Known Facts / Problems (General) Manual barcode input

36 Software Version Description SIPLACE Setup Center 2.3

7.2.9 Manual barcode input

 When the barcode is entered manually, registration of user barcodes (via Barcode Wizard) is not

supported.

 Log on of changeover tables at the docking station is not supported.

7.2.10 Multiple instances of Setup Center

 Setup Center does not synchronize several running instances. The GUI is updated only when the

associated data is changed in the current instance of Setup Center. This could happen if for example

one Setup Center instance is used in the pre-setup area and another one at the line. The tables taken

from offline to online are only updated in the Setup Center instance on the line.

 Offline setup data can be refreshed by closing and re-opening the Offline Verification.

7.2.11 Barcode Scanner

 The DataLogic Dragon barcode reader can only show ASCII characters on its display. This means

that all names that contain non-ASCII characters have difficulties in being displayed correctly.

 It is not possible to actively send data to the DataLogic Dragon Barcode Scanner. Only when an

action (scanning, pressing of button, etc.) occurs is it possible to send an answer.

 Data transmission between base and scanner is done at a frequency of 433 MHz. The maximum

distance between base and scanner is 50 m (unobscured). It is possible to connect up to 32 scanners

to one base.

7.2.12 Management of Equipment

 Setup Center does not offer any GUI elements for managing equipment, for example changeover

tables or feeders.

7.2.13 Supplier Barcode

 Supplier barcodes must not have the same name as another component in the programming system.

If this is the case, setup verification for the track may fail, when the packaging unit is reused.

7.2.14 Barcode Fragment

 The maximum length of a barcode fragment is 255 characters, except the barcode fragment ‘Unique

ID’ with 40 signs. The length is also restricted by the barcode scanner type used, by the barcode

code (e.g. Code 3of9, EAN 128 etc.) and by the barcode contents. It is therefore impossible to give

a fixed length restriction.

 When the first character of the fragment is a number 1, 2, 3 or 4 the length of the barcode must have

a minimum of 5 characters

7.2.15 Closing Setup Center

Setup Center can not be closed when in online mode. The program will be automatically restarted if the

user tries to close it in this mode. However, it may sometimes be necessary to shut the program down

completely (patches, installation of SIPLACE Pro components, etc.).

The program can be shut down as follows:

 Press the key combination CTRL+SHIFT+ESC (or CTRL+ALT+DEL and select the Task Manager)

 Go to the menu entry „Processes“, select „SetupCenter.exe“ and click on the „End Process“ button.

 Confirm your entry in the following security query.

Alternatively, you can disable the „Online Verification“ option in the settings dialog, which will close Setup

Center normally.
