2.1 Alternative components
When components in a feeder is used up during operation, the alternative component
function allows the machine to pick up components from another feeder specified as
alternative components.
2.1.1 Component switching flow
In the Alternative component function, component feed is switched in the operation flow
explained below.
When the components in the current feeder run out, the machine allows automatic switch-
ing to the alternative component feeder without interrupting operation. When one cycle
using alternative components is complete, the machine stops and a message asking you to
resupply the components then appears.

Specify the alternative component numbers.
When data No. 12 and No. 13 in the data list are used as alternative components for
data No. 1, make the settings as follows.
1.Select data No. 1 and set the "Alternative Parts" parameter to "12".
2.Select data No. 12 and set the "Alternative Parts" parameter to "13".
3.Select data No. 13 and set the "Alternative Parts" parameter to "1".
The settings above mean that the alternative component for No. 1 is No. 12, that
for No. 12 is No. 13, and that for No. 13 is No. 1, just like making a loop as an
alternative component group.

CAUTION
Data No. for alternative components must make a loop.
Set to "12".
Set to "13".
Set to "1".
