There are two versions of the 5410 driver. Original versions carried a 4 pole dip switch (SW1)
and two on-board jumpers. The present version utilizes a 6 pole dip switch that replaces the
jumpers.
SW1
R43 R42
Tools required:
Procedure:
Follow this procedure to set current on the 5410 driver. A motor must be connected to the
driver during the calibration.
Caution: Never connect or disconnect step driver wires with power applied.
The current requirements for different axes vary: Table 1 provides the proper current
settings. The 3060MC drivers are factory adjusted for 7.5A DC and should not be re-
adjusted. The 5410 drivers are factory shipped at 5A DC unless appropriately marked
otherwise. Refer to the Engineering Drawings section of your AP Maintenance Manual for
complete information.
9. Press the OFF button on the front control panel to power down the machine. Failure to
remove power from the machine will result in damage to the step motors and drivers.
10. Remove the ammeter from the circuit.
11. Reconnect the Phase A wire to J1-1. Ensure that the wire is connected properly.
12. Remove the Phase B wire (the red wire) from J1-3J1-3.
13. Install the DC ammeter in series with the Phase B wire and J1-3 terminal.
14. Enable machine power (it is not necessary to perform a reset).
15. Set the motor Phase B current using potentiometer R42 (located on the step driver).
Adjust for the appropriate axis current level as provided in Table 1.
16. Disable power to the machine.
17. Remove the ammeter from the circuit.
18. Reconnect the Phase B wire to J1-3. Ensure that the wire is connected properly.
19. Reset all dip switches (or jumpers) to the original settings (step 3, Table 2).
20. Mount the driver back in the drawer using the original mounting hardware.
21. Enable power to the machine.
Positions 1 through 3 of the dip switch allow setting of the micro-step output mode. The
standard setting for most AP-series axes is 1/5 step, or:
• SW1-1 = Off
• SW1-2 = On
• SW1-3 = On
Note: Th
The standard setting for the AP-series Paste Dispenser driver is 1/125 step, or:
• SW1-1 = On
• SW1-2 = On
• SW1-3 = Off
Position 4 allows the micro-step current boost to be enabled or disabled. The standard
configuration is for boost enabled, or:
• SW1-4 = On
Stability control
Stability control is accessed via an on-board jumper on early versions and should be set to
In to enable the control. On recent versions the control is accessed via SW1-5 which
should be set to Off to enable stability control.
• SW1-5 = Off
Idle current reduction is accessed via an on-board jumper on early versions and should be
set according to the table below. Recent versions use SW1-6 to set the current reduction
feature; Table 3 provides the proper switch or jumper settings depending upon which axis
the driver will be used for.
Note: AP36 only: The 3060MC driver has a 4 pole dip switch and on-board jumpers; set
this driver exactly like the original version model 5410.
The Tactile Sensor assembly allows the printer to automatically determine the height that the
Z-tower must move to elevate the substrate for printing. The printer is able to repeatedly
perform this function provided two conditions are met:
Procedure
7. Set up the height gauge as shown in Figure 1. Set the Height Gauge to 6.5 inches using
gauge blocks (or a similar reference equaling 6.5 inches).
8. Use a 7/64” hex wrench to remove the four screws securing the tactile assembly side
cover. Place the cover aside for re-use.
9. Select Output Test from the Maintenance section of the Main Menu.
10. Select the Height_Sense_Up. The tactile sensing switch rises.
11. Connect an ohmmeter to the two tactile sensing switch contacts. Test the continuity of
the switch by depressing the switch actuator while watching for change on the ohmmeter.
Note: The continuity of the switch may also be tested using the Input Test screen from
the Main Menu’s Maintenance pull-down menu.
12. Apply a thread sealer (such as Locktite 222) to the height adjustment screw (shown in
Figure1).
13. Position the tactile sensing switch under the 6.5 inch reference set on the height gauge.
4-8 MPM Series Printers
Pre-HiE
14. Position the height of the switch close to the 6.5 inch reference by turning the adjustment
screw. Raise the height of the switch until the ohmmeter indicates that the switch has
closed.
15. Slowly back the set-screw off until the switch opens.
16. Re-assemble and re-install the tactile sensor assembly.
17. Re-assemble and re-install the vacuum chucks.
18. Perform the “Set Stencil Height” and “Load Board to Stencil Height” utilities.
19. Visually inspect the distance between the upper surface of the substrate and the lower
surface of the stencil. Repeat steps 6-17 if a gap between the board and stencil exists, or
the board is pressed too tightly into the stencil.
20. Close the hood and front doors.

Tactile Calibration
Calibration
Use the following procedure to calibrate the Tactile sensor. On-screen prompts guide you
through the procedure and the software automatically performs all machine motions needed
to calibrate the axis.
Each axis’ positioning is controlled via the hardware limit or homing sensors. It is very
important that each sensor is in the desired location for the machine to operate to factory
specifications. The easiest way to determine if the sensors are located properly is to use
the software calibration routines to test the sensor locations. Below is a generic
procedure that can be used as a general guideline:
– Power on the printer, log in to WindowsNT and when prompted, RESET the printer normally
– Change the user mode to Calibrate
– From the Calibrate pulldown, select the desired axis to be tested
– Postion the axis to it’s known mechical reference position using the required jig or other
means
– Select the CAL button in the axis calibration dialog box
– Follow the prompts thru the calibration routine to the point where the machine engages the
flag and sensor for the axis, and states that the sensor at this position is either just ON or OFF
– Write down the desired sensor state (ON or OFF) and also the current axis position displayed
in the jog list as the ‘Cal Sensor Pos’
– Abort the calibration by pressing the EXIT button
– With the sensor plugged in, select the JOG button in the axis calibration dialog box
– Slowly jog the axis until the input just goes to the desired state and note the current axis
position displayed in the jog list
– Slowly jog the axis on/off the sensor several times to ascertain the average position and record
this position as the ‘Actual Flag Position’
– Compare this position to that of the recorded ‘Cal Limit Pos’
– If adjustment(calibration) is required, jog to the ‘Cal Sensor Pos’ and relocate the flag/sensor
to the desired just ON/OFF postion and retest the ‘Actual Flag Position’ until the a desirable
position is achieved
– For axis’ with two Limit sensors, proceed as described as above for the first sensor. Reenter
the CAL button routine and skip any adjustments for the sensor. Follow the prompts thru the
calibration routine to the point where the machine engages the flag and sensor for the axis,
and states that the sensor at this position is either just ON or OFF. Write down the desired
sensor state (ON or OFF) and also the current axis position displayed in the jog list as the ‘Cal
Sensor Pos’. Abort the calibration by pressing the EXIT button. With the sensor plugged in,
select the JOG button in the axis calibration dialog box. Slowly jog the axis until the input just
goes to the desired state and note the current axis position displayed in the jog list. Slowly jog
the axis on/off the sensor several times to ascertain the average position and record this
position as the ‘Actual Flag Position’. Compare this position to that of the recorded ‘Cal Limit
Pos’. If adjustment(calibration) is required, jog to the ‘Cal Sensor Pos’ and relocate the flag/
sensor to the desired just ON/OFF postion and retest the ‘Actual Flag Position’ until the a
desirable position is achieved
– From the axis calibration dialog box, select the LTL button for any two sensor axis and confirm
that the results are within the desired range
– Adjust as necessary

the boardstop sensor.
9. Using the potentiometer located above the LED, adjust to the point where the sensor just
turns OFF when over the board support.
10. Place the calibration board on the track belts and slide the board under the sensor. The
sensor should turn ON. Adjust as necessary to achieve the desired results.
11. Repeat the test with the customer’s maximum thickness board.
12. When sensor adjustment is complete, replace the camera cover.
13. Remove any boards from the tracks and jog the Z axis to it’s home position.
14. Place the calibration board on the tracks over the left board input sensor.
15. From the TEACH pulldown menu select the ‘Calibrate Boardstop’ function. Follow the

Under normal circumstances there should not be a need for an offset to be added to the
setup menu, unless that offset is being added to compensate for Board to Stencil Stretch.
(Stretch is defined as a difference that exists between the artwork on a board and on the
stencil. Stretch differs from board to board; the vision system automatically splits the
difference between ‘trained’ board targets during it’s alignment process.)
If offset values are needed to get the board to match the stencil, the machine may be out of
alignment. To test for vision mis-alignment, perform the following steps:
a. Select a circuit board and stencil with pads or fiducials located to the left and right front
edges. Place a mark on the board that will distinguish it from any other board.
b. Use this board to generate a new Vision Teach profile. Select a pad/aperture as close as
possible to the front-left and front-right sides of the board and stencil.
c. On the Setup Menu, enter a ‘Snapoff’ figure of 0.00, enter an accurate board thickness
figure, and enable the vision system (leave it enabled throughout this entire procedure).
d. Once the board is taught, use the Load Board to Stencil Height utility from the main
menu.
Use a microscope scope to inspect the stencil-to-board alignment at the two taught targets.
Remember how closely the alignment appears, as well as exactly how any offset of board-to-
stencil appears.
Note: Do not lean on or against the stencil during any portion of this procedure.
Movement may occur even with the frame clamps on.
e. Use the Load Board to Stencil Height utility to cycle the board in and out of the machine
10 times, inspecting the alignment each time to verify that it appears exactly the same.
Figure 1 illustrates examples of ‘board stretch’. The substrate pads in Example A are
physically closer together than the stencil openings. Example B shows the type of stretch
where the substrate pads are physically further apart than the stencil openings .
Figure 1
If vision calibration is needed, it is possible that the Probe Assembly (or the X-Platen) has
been disturbed, causing mis-alignment. Figure 2 illustrates this effect:
Figure 2
If the alignment is not repeatable, this is an indication of three other potential problems:
a. Backlash exists. Check the drive rods and couplers of the axis in question .
b. Loose camera or vision cube is shifting during the vision gantry movements.
c. The targets that were trained during vision teach are not clearly defined and/or made
unique during teach. Re-teach vision, consulting your manual for assistance in properly
training targets. Following the steps properly in the Vision Teach segment is critical; if you
have doubts as to the proper method of defining the targets after reading your manual,
call Technical Support for advice.

problem:
a.) Clean the stencil
b.) Clean the board targets
c.) Repeat all steps
The Histogram only needs to be performed when replacing the camera power supply, camera
controller, CCD camera or the board lamp.
The aim of this test is to set the illumination from the lamps to achieve the correct
separation between dark and light levels encountered in production. Varying the voltage to
the lamps will shift the position of the white peaks. Clockwise adjustment of the voltage
control potentiometer on the lamp power supply (pneumatics tray) will increase the
voltage and move the white peak to the right of the graph.
14. If necessary, adjust the voltage and repeat the test steps until the peaks are centered in the
green areas of the chart.
8.) Press EXIT after the second target is trained and Save the file under a new name. The
machine will reload the board, inspect the fiducials and raise the board to the stencil.
9. When the printer has raised the board to the stencil, set up a microscope so that you can
view the 1st and 2nd targets by placing the microscope on the stencil target.
Check both targets for correct offset. If targets are off center, adjust X-axis, Y-axis, or Theta
axis (or a combination of all three axes) to center both targets on top of each other.
Note: It is critical that both targets are centered and that once centered, both targets are
repeatable.

Procedure
1. Apply system power (if OFF).
2. After boot-up and machine RESET, change user mode to Maintenance.
3. Jog vision probe forward to gain access to it.
4. Open rear door to gain access to pneumatic tray area.
5. Open front covers and remove vision probe cover to gain access to the laser connectors,
P78 and P79.
6. Turn on both lasers using the I/O Test screen.
7. Connect the (–) lead of the DVM to XT9-10 or the (–) terminal on power supply GS4 in the
pneumatic tray. Using either P78 or P79, connect the (+) lead of a DVM to pin 1 of the
connector.
8. Check for +5.00 VDC ±0.010VDC.
9. If 5.00 VDC is not within tolerance, adjust PS2 in pneumatic tray for +5.00 VDC ±0.01 VDC
at the vision probe with both lasers ON.
10. After the measurement (and adjustment if necessary) is done, turn off both lasers.
11. Exit out of I/O Test.
WARNING! Do not allow the laser beam to enter the eye directly. Possible eye injury
could result.
12. Leave the VX AXIS and VY AXIS Jog active so that the board light will remain on. (It will
turn off if Jog is deselected.)
13. Loosen one 6-32 1/4 SHCS and remove other 6-32 1/4 SHCS so the vertical laser power
supply can be swung out of the way to gain access to the vertical laser.
14. Loosen the 6-32 x 1-1/8 SHCS, the 6-32 x 3/4 SHCS, and the 6-32 x 1/2 SHCS on the
vertical laser support. To adjust the vertical laser, snug the 6-32 x 1-1/8 SHCS and leave the
6-32 x 3/4 SHCS loose. Loosening the 6-32 x 1-1/8 and 6-32 x 3/4 SHCS, enables laser line
rotational adjustments and focusing. Loosening the 6-32 x 1/2 enables fine tuning the
lasers vertical position.
15. Adjust the vertical laser so that its line is centered in cross hairs and is has the thinnest
line possible. Tighten hardware.
Equipment Damage! Use extreme caution when tightening the screws. Over-tightening
the 6-32 x 1-1/8 and 6-32 x 3/4 SHCS will warp the laser housing, causing the laser line to
bow and causing irreversible damage to the laser.
16. Horizontal laser adjustments are made by loosening the 6-32 x 5/8 SHCS in the horizontal
laser support. Adjustments can now be made for focus, rotation, and horizontal position.
Be aware that this one screw controls all three axis. After the correct focus and rotational
positions are obtained, snug the 6-32 x 5/8 SHCS.
17. Using light to moderate finger pressure, adjust the mirror support beam to set the
horizontal laser line in the cross hairs. Tightening the 6-32 x 5/8 SHCS will probably cause
the laser to move up or down, so compensate the position prior to tightening the screw.
18. Check laser line thickness by pressing NEXT. It should be close to 4.3 to 4.6. However,
laser line thickness will be fine-tuned in laser calibration.
19. Jog the vision gantry out of the way so you can move the board support.
20. Move the board support to the second location. Jog the vision probe to the new board
support location.
21. Test the six test positions shown in the figure in sequence, 1 to 6.
22. When testing all six positions, the lasers should fall into the cross hairs. If, at any position,
the lasers fall off the cross hairs, the vision frame is not leveled to laser specs and must be
leveled. Use the cross hairs as a guide to adjust the vision frame.
23. After all positions test satisfactorily, the Lasers Alignment Check procedure is complete.
The next step is to calibrate the lasers.
Laser Calibration
Calibration
Acceptable
Ideal
Two examples of incorrect laser adjustment and the corrective procedures follow.
In example #1 , the horizontal laser trace correctly has a “flat line” that covers four screen
divisions immediately to the right of the vertical black line. However, the vertical laser’s
“flat line” portion is two divisions to the right the vertical black line and is only three
divisions in length. To correct this fault, go back to the Laser Alignment Check procedure
and adjust the vertical laser by pulling the laser further out from its current position.
In example #2, the horizontal flat line portion is four divisions in length, but is to the left
of the center line. The vertical laser flat line portion is too short (only three divisions) and
is two divisions from the center line. The correction is as follows:
1. Go back to the Laser Alignment Check procedure, and with the horizontal laser still in
the cross hairs, push the laser in. Adjust the vertical laser by pulling it out.
2. After adjustments, both the horizontal and vertical laser must have four-division “flat
line” portions immediately to the right of the vertical black line.
3. After successful completion of the laser voltage setup, laser alignment check, and laser
calibration, replace the cover on the vision head.

Press down on the nylon tips to test the internal springs. Replace them if necessary.
13. Inspect the entire Clamp assembly for cleanliness, wear, or binding. Clean any solder
paste or other contaminants with isopropyl alcohol. Pay particular attention to the
following components:
a. Squeegee Clamp Bar: Use a 3/32 hex wrench to remove the button heads from the
Shaft Clamp Block. Note the orientation of the “chamfers” on the Shaft Clamp Block
and the Clamp Bar before removing them.
Place the washer and guide pin aside for reassembly.
b. Pressure Plate: clean and deburr the plate.
c. Squeegee Clamp Ball Plungers: Ensure that the springs in each plunger are operating
correctly; replace them if necessary.
d. Traction Plates (with blue traction material ): Replace the plates as follows:
d1) Remove the screws using a 1/16" hex wrench and remove the plates.
Note: If hardened accumulated solder paste prevents removal of the screws, use
a Dremel tool (or a file) to cut a slot across the surface of the screw head. Remove
the screw with a flat-blade screwdriver. Remove any resulting burrs.
d2) Install new plates and screws. Do not use Loctite on the screws.
d3) With a polishing stone, burnish (smooth) the BLUE abrasive surface of the
traction material to remove any high spots. (High spots can interfere with removal
and replacement of the squeegee holders.)
14. Reassemble the Clamp Bar, Shaft Clamp Block, washer, and guide pin. Ensure that the
orientation of the chamfer on the block is correct before assembling.
15. Repeat steps #11 through #15 for the rear clamp assembly.
1. Apply Loctite 222 on the threads and adjust the Squeegee Ball Plungers so that the tip of
the ball extends beyond the traction plate, but the ball plunger’s threaded housing does
not.
Frame
Note: Adjustment screws to increase or decrease clamping force are located on each
ProHeads clamp assembly. These two screws are located on the left and right face of
each squeegee clamp assembly.
4. Adjust only one squeegee clamp at a time. Turn the screws clockwise for greater clamping
force, adjust until the blades will not fall out, but rock side to side (float) with ease.
5. Hold the entire Squeegee clamp assembly over a soft surface and shake it. If the
squeegee holder falls out, reconfirm the position of the squeegee ball plungers and re-
adjust the clamp force adjusting screws as necessary.
6. Repeat for the other squeegee clamp.
7. Remove the squeegee holders.
8. If the blades bind or grate as they are removed, burnish the blue traction material.
Note
Note: New traction plates are no longer blue and should not be burnished.
9. Place the front and rear Clamp Assemblies together with the clamp bars touching.
10. Install the right End Plate (with the Attack Angle Ball Plungers) on the right end of the
front and rear Squeegee Clamp assemblies.
11. Install the left End Plate on the left end of the front and rear Squeegee Clamp assemblies.
12. Ensure that both plates are fully seated.
13. Install the special washers on the left and right dowels.
14. Install the left and right Bearing Mounts.
15. Mount the squeegee head back onto the machine.
16. Manually grasp each clamp assembly and turn it to test all five detent settings (-5, -2.5, 0,
+2.5 and +5 degrees). Adjust the setting of the Ball Plungers in or out as needed to verify
that they engage in the detents properly, but do not bind as the degree of attack angle is
changed.
17. Ensure that the four end plate screws are loose.
1. Grasp the bottom portion of each of the Squeegee Flip Levers, and manually flip them.
Check for a smooth and balanced feel between the two Bearing Mounts.
If adjustment is needed, set the front and rear Cam Pivot Ball Plungers until both sides
move the same. The plungers should gently hold the Squeegee Flip Levers in position at
any of their detent positions.
Press Here
2. When finished with adjustments, ensure that neither Cam Pivot Ball Plunger is turned in
as far as it will go; if this happens, turn both screws out and begin the adjustments again.
3. Push against the top of the right Squeegee Flip Lever. Tighten the End Plate Lock screws
while holding the lever in place. Repeat for the left Squeegee Flip Lever.
