1.5 Multiplying the Component Data

This function allows component data to multiply into two or more units of the same data.

This means that the multiplied data can be supplied from multiple feeders. When a large

amount of the same components are used for one PCB, this function shortens the time

required to produce a PCB

Display the "Parts Info" data table.

Click the "Parts Info" icon in the work space.

Select the data line of the component to be multiplied.

"Multiply Parts" command

27520-5E-20

Multiply the selected component.

1.Select "Component Information Support" - "Multiply Parts" from the Edit menu.

The "Multiply Parts" dialog box appears.

2.In the "Multiply No." box, set the desired number you want to obtain.

3.Check the "Select Alternative Part" checkbox if the component is used as an

alternative component.

Enter or select the number to multiply data.

4.Click the [OK] button.

Component multiplication is performed.

5.When the dialog box appears indicating the component multiplication has been

completed, click the [OK] button. The dialog box closes.

2. Block offset

A multi-block PCB is a printed circuit board consisting of two or more independent printed circuits of

the same type. Each printed circuit on a multi-block PCB is called a "block". Setting the block offset

allows the machine to repeat the same mounting operation in each block on a PCB, based on the

reference block data. This function therefore greatly saves the time required for creating data on multi-

block PCBs.

The offset

function allows you

to change the entire

PCB data just by

editing the data for the

reference block.

2.1 Creating the block offset data

Display the block offset information.

On the tree in the work space, click the Block Offset Info icon. The detail view

window switches to the block offset information.

Set the reference block offset data.

The block closest to the machine origin is normally viewed as the reference block.

Enter this reference block offset data in the No. 1 line by referring to the following

descriptions.

1 Skip

Place a checkmark when not mounting components in this block.

Selecting the Skip checkbox

A checkmark appears.

2 Comment

Type any desired comment on the block offset in alphanumeric characters.

CAUTION

Spaces cannot be used. Use underbars ( _ ) for spaces.

3 X, Y

Enter the XY coordinates of the origin of this block relative to the PCB origin. Usually, the PCB

origin is specified at the same position as the reference block origin, so enter "0.00, 0.00" as the XY

coordinates.
