Chapter 4 Window for creating a form of component list

Set the format of components list with a wizard. It is set semi-automatically.

The step of the wizard is as follows;

1.     Display the sentence of explanation.

2.     Select and import the file of components list. This application searches the optimal setting value. If the components list has already been inputted in mentioned in Chapter 3, such data is used then no need to select a file here.

3.     Set a starting row from the red column. (In case of Excel file with multiple sheets, it is set to the same number of row in all sheets.)

4.     Confirm the column delimiter. (There is not this setting in case of Excel file imported.)

5.     Set the column of the component name.

6.     Set the column of the reference name. Multiple rows can be selected. If a mistake of selection happens, click the incorrect column again then its column becomes unselected.

7.     Set a reference delimiter. No need to set in case of one reference name in one row. In case that the reference is ‘R1,R2,R8’ for example, “,” should be the setting value then three references (R1, R2 and R8) are extracted to. To check whether reference is extracted correctly, select the row then confirm the left list where one reference is assigned to one row.

8.     Set a consecutive symbol of reference. No need to set in case of no omission. In case that the reference is ‘R1-8’ for example, “-” should be the setting value then five references (R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5) are extracted to. To check whether reference is extracted correctly, select the row then confirm the left list where one reference is assigned to one row.

9.     Set the process category sign. The sign (symbol) is assigned to each mounting process of component at editing process in Excel, etc. ahead of time.

The initial setting is as follows;

“M1” = mounter 1, “M2” = mounter 2, “NT” = post-mounting, “NM” = non-mounting, “SC” = subcontract, “OT” = others.

Normally there is not this sign in the component list but it could surely be convenient function.

If this column is unnecessary, click [NoneNext->].

10.  Save the setting value with named. Specifying folder and file extension are added automatically.

(Note 1) The above three symbols should be different each other.

(Note 2) Even in case of tiling (multiple) mounting, set the reference name such as R1_PCB1 which should be same as the one of coordinate data. (The symbol “_” here is an example but it should be different from the above three symbol.) When the reference is such as “R1_PCB1-R5_PCB1”, it can be extracted to “R1_PCB1”, “R2_PCB1”, “R3_PCB1”, “R4_PCB1” and “R5_PCB1”.
