1. About this manual and task entry points

This chapter explains the scope, version labels and task reading routes.

1.1 Audience versions and reading guidance

This manual is for MachinePilot users who create components, products and recipes. Follow each example's prerequisites, values, steps and completion checks. Example values apply only to that example.

This review edition consolidates the existing material. Each example retains its source version. The basic-operation recording shows 1.6.0 in the title bar, 1.7.0 under About Application and 0.1.0 for Plugins; these have not been treated as one version identifier. If your interface differs, check the version and limitations stated for that section.

“Requires confirmation” indicates unresolved source ambiguity. “Result evidence pending” means a procedure exists but its successful outcome is not sufficiently demonstrated. “User supplied clarification” identifies a written explanation rather than a new test. Different branches and examples do not share a successful ending.

The scope ends with operations inside the software and recipe export checks. Loading a physical machine, commissioning, trial runs and production operation are outside this edition.

1.2 Workflow and data relationships

Choose a chapter according to the work you need to perform.

The following workspace explanation comes from the existing getting-started draft. Its applicability remains limited to the source version.

Main workspaces and data browsing

Existing introductory draft. Procedure and interface applicability require review.

Main workspaces

Context and checks

MachinePilot manages Electronic Component, Product and Recipe data in separate workspaces. Select an object in Data Tree, inspect or edit its attributes in Properties, and use Viewport to view 2D or 3D models and simulation results.

Data pending: the dataset version, actual retrieval location and loading checks for each example. The procedures can still be reviewed in the meantime.

3. Interface and common operations

This chapter covers the interface, selection, views, measurement and workspace operations.

3.1 Workspace tabs and information areas

Version and review status: the basic interface images come from the recording of 2026-09-23. The title-bar and About versions remain unresolved; text and captions require review. Common operations also use written clarifications, subject to the limitations in each section.

Workspace and reset.

Open Workspace at the upper left to locate Reset Workspace and Exit. The narration describes resetting the current project; the recording shows the menu without performing a reset.

Electronic Component workspace.

Select Electronic Component to locate New Component, Open Project, Save to Library, Component Relations, and Scene Roles on the ribbon.

Tree and properties panels.

Locate Electric Component Tree on the left and Annotation properties on the right. The narration explains the tree and associated parameters. No item is selected, so the empty panels do not establish every node parameter.

Console context menu.

Right-click the bottom Console to locate Copy, Select All, Filter, Level, Clear Console, and Find; some commands are disabled in this state. The ambiguous subtitle word “test” is not interpreted as a Paste command.

Console message levels.

Expand Level in the Console context menu to inspect the selectable message levels. The narration explains filtering by levels such as information and Debug; each individual filtering result is not verified here.

Clear the Console.

Use the clear command in the Console context menu to remove messages. The frame shows the message area cleared; clearing messages does not establish that the causes of previous warnings were fixed.

Low disk space notice.

3.2 Selection context menus and object hierarchy

For multi-slot selection, read the full manual-configuration example. Follow each object's specified selection method; do not generalize one example's repeated clicks to every table. [1]

Annotation type filters.

Locate Fiducial and Insertion under Filter by tag in the right panel. These are introduced as annotation type filters; no fiducial or insertion annotation is completed here.

ADD, DELETE, and FOCUS.

Locate ADD, DELETE, and FOCUS below the annotation type. This segment shows their positions; the empty list provides no completed add, delete, or focus result.

Use the left mouse button.

Use the left mouse button to select or specify a position in the 3D viewport. This introduction uses an empty scene; a recognizable selection result is still needed to verify object selection.

3.3 3D views focus and display

Focus on select。

Focus on select is below the annotation buttons. The narration describes focusing the view on a selected annotated component to inspect its position and geometry. No annotated component is present here, so the effect is described rather than demonstrated.

3D toolbar and fit-all view.

The view toolbar is along the left edge of the 3D viewport. The narration first introduces fitting the whole scene into view. The scene is empty, so no model fit-all result can be verified.

Fit the selected object.

The narration next introduces fitting a selected component into view. A selected object is needed to check the effect; this frame only locates the toolbar.

Area zoom entry.

The 3D toolbar includes an area zoom entry. This segment locates the control without demonstrating a complete region selection and zoom result.

Toggle the floor display.

Use the floor icon on the 3D toolbar to toggle the floor display. Compare the grid state with the preceding frame; this control changes the scene background display.

Frame display options.

Open the frame display menu to locate User Frame, Tool Frame, Slot Interface, General Frame, Pose Frame, and World Frame, with Show all and Hide all at the top.

3D rendering statistics.

The narration identifies geometry counts, rendering time, and FPS at the lower right during 3D interaction. These describe the current scene and are not a product performance guarantee.

Rendering mode menu.

Open the rendering menu on the 3D toolbar to locate Edged mode, Shaded mode, and Wireframe Mode. The narration describes their display styles; no model is present for a three-mode comparison.

View Editor entry.

Open View Editor to locate Add View. The narration describes capturing views for quick switching later; a complete save-and-recall sequence is not verified.

Capture Position entry.

Next, open Capture Position, which has Static Capture and Motion Capture tabs. The current tab states Runtime-generated simulation source components are not captured. The narration mentions capture and replay, but no complete capture-and-replay result is shown.

Zoom with the mouse wheel.

Scroll the mouse wheel in the 3D viewport to zoom. Adjacent frames show the floor grid scale changing. The persistent yellow cursor highlight is not treated as a click event.

Rotate with the middle mouse button.

Hold the middle mouse button and move the mouse to rotate the 3D view. The frame sequence shows the floor and axes changing orientation. The next examples explain how the pointer location affects the rotation center.

Rotate from a point on the object.

Point at the board surface, then rotate with the middle button. The narration explains rotation relative to the point on the object. A board is loaded for this example, but its loading sequence is not expanded into a complete product-opening tutorial.

Elevated board and floor point.

The board is raised above the floor for comparison. A pointer hit on the board uses its point for rotation, while an adjacent empty area uses a point projected onto the floor. No reproducible elevation parameters are provided; this preparation is not a movement tutorial.

Rotation near holes and empty space.

Even when the pointer appears close to the board, a hole or an area outside the board may hit the floor below. If rotation differs from expectations, first check that the pointer is on an actual object surface.

Recheck rotation on the board surface.

Move the pointer back onto the board surface, rotate with the middle button, and compare with the preceding floor-point example. The learning check is to distinguish the two rotation behaviors; no new product is saved and no recipe is generated.

Focus on select common operation

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Focus the view after selecting an Annotation.

Procedure

Enable Focus on select, then box-select Annotation items. The view zooms and focuses on the geometric center of the selection.

Limitations and pending information

The existing FOP-062 record also shows selection in the Annotations list. Box selection and list selection retain separate sources. Center calculation and zoom level for multiple items are unspecified.

Focus View common operation

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

View a product node.

Procedure

Use Focus View to enlarge the specified product node and view it from above.

Limitations and pending information

The related FOP-060 UI label is Focus Viewport. The commands are not currently treated as identical, and the top-view behavior is not generalized to every focus command.

Hide common operation

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Node visibility.

Procedure

Use Hide to hide a specified node for separate or single-layer inspection.

Limitations and pending information

The command for showing the node again is unspecified. The eye-icon control in FOP-005 affects feature-layer visibility and is not assumed to reverse Hide for every node.

3.4 Measure move and rotate

See the carrier example for relative and absolute product movement, and the STEP-carrier example for movement and rotation. Do not transfer coordinates or parameters between different objects. [1] [2]

World and Relative coordinate display.

The lower-left coordinate panel can switch between World and Relative. The narration describes coordinates of the pointed feature; the empty scene shows dashes rather than a valid feature coordinate reading.

Measure entry.

Measure is in the Product tools area and is introduced as the entry to measurement mode. Feature selection, measurements, and a complete exit sequence are not demonstrated.

Measure common operation

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Common measurement; the source does not establish availability in every workspace.

Procedure

Select Measure to enter measurement mode. Select the start point and then the end point. Red, green and blue represent X, Y and Z. To leave measurement mode, select the first point and press Esc.

Limitations and pending information

This clarification does not specify measurement units, the coordinate reference or availability across workspaces. Example measurements are not defaults.

3.5 Save create a new file and exit

Result evidence pending: the unsaved Save/Cancel branches and reopening after saving do not yet have a complete common procedure. Refer to the specific component-saving or product-saving examples. [1] [2]

Exit command.

Workspace > Exit is the exit command introduced here. The recording continues and does not demonstrate the application closing.

Open Project in Product.

Product > Open Project is described as the entry for loading a saved Board, Panel, or Carrier project. This segment does not show the complete selection and loading result.

4. Asset Library browsing and management

This chapter covers asset lookup, information, relationships and management entry points.

4.1 Search categories and sorting

Scope: this chapter primarily describes recorded Asset Library controls and information. Successful modification and cloning are covered in Chapter 5. Seeing an entry point does not establish successful completion.

Open Project and Group.

Select Open Project, then expand Group in Open Component Project to browse assets by group.

Browse All Groups.

Set Group to All Groups to browse the assets in the current database. The narration lists components, tools, machines, and products; the available entries depend on the recorded dataset.

Browse Default Components.

Select Default Components in Group to inspect default component candidates and their previews. The narration mentions subsequent cloning and geometry adjustments, which are not performed in this segment.

Asset Library entry.

Select Asset Library and locate Asset Manager at the upper left. This is the entry used to browse database assets. The adjacent Change DB is not operated in this segment.

Assets and groups.

Open Asset Manager and browse the Assets tab in Asset Library Management. The narration distinguishes geometry-bearing assets from group data. The right pane changes with the selected item.

Show category filter.

Use the Show dropdown to choose the category to browse. The narration introduces objects, groups, and drafts; subsequent examples use the Objects list.

Locate recent assets by modification time.

Select the Last Modified column in the detailed list to sort by modification time, then scroll to recent entries. Identify the target by its name and timestamp; the bottom of the list depends on sort direction.

Select the target asset.

Select the asset to handle in the list. This frame selects Electrolytic Capacitor; the following delete-command example switches to Disc Capacitor_template. Recheck the name and description whenever the selection changes.

Deferred Filters behavior.

Several categories are visible under Filters. The narration defers variation-based searching to later work. This package records the interface location without presenting future behavior as verified.

4.2 Asset information and relationships

Identify an incomplete Draft asset.

Selecting Disc Capacitor shows Draft – Incomplete, No preview available, and Draft asset, with a note that the component has not been finalized. The subtitle word “drift” is corrected to Draft from the UI. A missing preview does not establish a completed model.

Model and preview paths.

Select an asset with a preview and inspect the project-file and preview-image path entries under Asset Values. The example selects G00101. These entries do not verify that the referenced files exist or are synchronized.

Additional data varies by asset.

Select another asset, such as a feeder, and compare the additional Asset Values entries. The narration distinguishes tool and feeder data, while the UI uses Lib feeder data for mb db. for multiple asset types. Keep the observed UI wording.

Identify footprint entries.

Entries ending in _footprint describe a relationship to a component model. This example shows Relay_THL18.8_W10.6_H15.3_footprint with no preview and an empty Asset Values pane. Its Relations are inspected later.

Product asset data.

Select a product asset to inspect its board preview and project, preview, and annotation-related data in Asset Values. This is an existing asset, not a product created during this segment.

Electronic component asset data.

Select an electronic component to inspect its 3D preview and Asset Values. The narration compares additional data across assets and reiterates that drafts may lack models and images. Do not apply model-asset field expectations to every data type.

Three relation examples for a component.

Select Capacitor_Box_L7.3_W2.5_H6.5_P5 and open Relations. This example lists a footprint, feeder Tape_3_Radial, and tool VC0101. The example does not establish that every component always has all three relations.

Inspect the component linked to a footprint.

Select Resistor_Axial_D3_L9_footprint and inspect Relations. It lists Resistor_Axial_D3_L9 with Component footprint alignment. This resistor example is separate from the preceding capacitor example.

Asset Information common operation

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Product data in the current world.

Procedure

Right-click a product node and select Info to open Asset Information and inspect the data for all product items in that world.

Limitations and pending information

The ambiguous original wording is provisionally rendered as “product node.” Whether it specifically means the product root, which fields are shown and whether they are editable remain unconfirmed.

4.3 Boundaries of create update clone and remove

See 5.01 to change the part number of the same asset. See 5.02 to keep the original and create another asset with the same shape. [1] [2]

Result evidence pending: the post-deletion state and effects of Delete Selected on related data have not been fully verified for this edition.

Delete Selected and its evidence limit.

After selecting an item, Delete Selected is the command for deleting selected assets. The recording shows the button and its tooltip, but the same item remains visible afterward. A completed deletion is not established by the narration alone.

5. Create and configure electronic components

This chapter covers lookup, part-number changes, shape cloning, geometry and manufacturing data, and lookup after saving.

5.1 Find an existing component and change its part number

E01 | Find Components by Shape and Change a Part Number

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

What will you accomplish?

When you need a component, identify its shape in the asset list, then check the part number. If both match, lookup is complete. If the shape matches but the part number needs changing, update the existing asset's part number and check the result in the list.

This example uses a blue rectangular capacitor and changes its part number from 495-2473-3-ND to 9999 . The completion point is: the same shape is found in UIBU with the new part number 。

Before you start

• Open MachinePilot and prepare a component asset suitable for practice edits. The example screenshots use version 1.6.0 with an English UI.
• Confirm that the example component is in the library. If using another practice asset, record its shape, original part number, and intended new part number first.
• This example opens component search through a new Board's BOM; completed board geometry or annotations are not required.

Before editing, confirm the purpose: one asset has one part number. Changing an existing asset's part number affects definitions that already use that asset. To retain two different part numbers with the same shape, use E02 Deep Clone. Do not repeatedly rename one asset to treat it as two independent assets.

1. Open component search

Step 01 | Add a Board

At the top, in Product select New Board . On the left, verify that Annotation Tree shows Board, containing BOM。

Step 02 | Open the BOM list

On the left, in Annotation Tree select BOM . Verify that the right side shows Electronic Component List with the following at the bottom: + ADD。

Step 03 | Add a component item

At the bottom of the right-hand list, select + ADD . Confirm that the list contains a NEW item whose Part No. field has no component assigned yet.

Step 04 | Open Component Library Search

select NEW in that row, select the Part No. underlined text. Because of the column width, it appears as Please select an e... . Confirm that this opens Component Library Search and view the UIBU tab.

2. Identify the shape, then check the part number

Step 05 | Find the required shape

In UIBU browse the shape thumbnails, identify the required shape, then read its part number. The example is the first blue rectangular capacitor in Figure E01-4, with original part number 495-2473-3-ND。

Choose the next action based on your check:

Steps 06–10 demonstrate changing an existing part number.

3. Change an existing asset's part number

Step 06 | Switch to Internal Library

In Component Library Search At the top, select UIBU on its right, the Internal Library tab, then find the asset with the same shape. Its title in this example is 495-2473-3-ND ; do not select the neighboring 495-2473-4。

Step 07 | Open the part-number input field

On the target asset, select ADD TO UIBU to edit its part number. If the target already shows the Part No. input field and OVERWRITE , continue to Step 08.

Confirm that the target asset's Part No. original value is 495-2473-3-ND。

Step 08 | Enter a new part number

In the target asset's Part No. input field, change the original value to 9999 . Check the entry before submitting. You may use your own new part number for practice.

Step 09 | Submit the update

On the same item, select the right-hand OVERWRITE . Confirm that the following appears: Component overwritten in library. message.

4. Return to the list to check the result

Step 10 | Find the new part number in UIBU

At the top, select the UIBU tab, find the blue rectangular capacitor again, and check:

• The part number above the item displays 9999 or your chosen new value.
• The shape is unchanged.
• In this example, Name still displays 495-2473-3-ND ; Name remaining unchanged does not mean the part-number update failed.

Figure E01-8: The part number is now 9999, while Name remains unchanged. This completes the E01 part-number edit.

Completion checks

Check each item for this part-number editing exercise:

• [ ] Identify the selected shape and original part number before editing.
• [ ] See the success message when submitting the update.
• [ ] Find the same shape in UIBU with the new part number you entered.
• [ ] Distinguish Part No. from Name; do not treat an unchanged Name as a failure.
• [ ] Explain why Deep Clone is needed to keep two part numbers with the same shape, rather than repeatedly editing one asset.

If the task requires lookup only, finding a matching shape and part number completes it. Do not change the asset merely for practice.

If your screen differs from the example

5.2 Reuse a shape with Deep Clone

Scope described for Deep Clone.

The narration introduces Deep Clone for copying an existing electronic component, including its geometry, tool relations, definitions, and group part numbers. Only the dropdown entry is shown; cloning, saving, and result verification are not completed.

E02 | Reuse a Shape to Create Another Part Number

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

Purpose and expected result

Use Deep Clone to retain the original asset and create a new part number with the same shape. After completion, find the new part number and corresponding shape in the component list in Product.

Before you start

Prepare an existing component to clone. This example uses a blue rectangular capacitor. Check the shape before selecting it; this task does not modify the shape, tool relationships, or feeder relationships.

Example values and adjustable items

Procedure

Step 01 | Open Deep Clone

select Electronic Component . Expand the New Component drop-down list and select Deep clone from asset...。

Check after the operation: The Select Asset to Deep Clone window appears.

Step 02 | Select an existing shape

Set the group to All groups , browse the thumbnails, select the blue rectangular capacitor, and select OK。

Check after the operation: The selected shape is the component you intend to reuse.

Step 03 | Set the new name and group part numbers

In Confirm Deep Clone Check the new asset name and enter 495-2473-4 ; in the group list, for Internal Component Group and UIBU enter the same new part number in the corresponding fields, then confirm.

Check after the operation: The new name and both group part numbers match the intended new value.

Step 04 | Read the cloning notice

Read the Deep Clone from Asset notice, then select OK to return to editing the cloned asset. The preview and project file still require the first save.

Check after the operation: The cloned asset is open for editing; this does not yet mean it has been saved.

Step 05 | Add the AMBU Component property

Right-click the cloned asset's root node and select Add AssetValue under AMBU Component。

Check after the operation: AMBU Component can be selected under the root node.

Step 06 | Check component name and part number

select AMBU Component and on the right set Component name and Part Number to 495-2473-4。

Check after the operation: Both fields match the new part number.

Step 07 | Save the cloned asset

select Save to Library and check Name, save location, and group part numbers. In Preview, select Capture from 3D view , confirm that the cloned capacitor shape is shown, then select OK。

Check after the operation: The preview matches the new asset and the save has been submitted.

Step 08 | Return to Product to find the component

Switch to Product and add a Board. Select BOM, select + ADD , then use the new item's Part No. link to open Component Library Search. In UIBU, find 495-2473-4。

Check after the operation: The list shows the new part number and corresponding capacitor shape.

Completion checks

• [ ] The new part number matches your setting.
• [ ] The new part number can be found in Product's UIBU list, with the intended cloned shape.
• [ ] Explain how this differs from changing an existing part number in E01.

Limitations and notes

The example dimensions show 0.00, accepted as an exception for this training revision. This does not mean the physical dimensions are zero or all properties were inherited. The evidence does not include a reopen check; the Deep Clone notice does not establish unconditional success for every cloned item.

5.3 Create a component with templates and geometry

Version difference: the new basic-operation recording has an empty Template list, while the older example below shows template selection. Follow each source's conditions; the older example does not establish that all installations contain the same templates.

Open the component creation dialog.

Select New Component to open Create Electric Component. This segment identifies the entry point and dialog; it does not complete component creation.

Component template entry.

Use the dropdown beside New Component to open Select Component Template. The Component Templates list shows No Item!; this is not evidence of successful creation from a template.

Create a component and select a Template in the older example

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

For engineers and operators maintaining component libraries, this procedure opens the component-creation dialog in Electronic Component, selects the example Template and checks Preview. It does not cover subsequent field setup, component creation or other creation branches.

Assumptions and items requiring confirmation

• Version confirmation: the session contract specifies v1.6.0-beta, but the recorded title bar shows 1.6.0 without beta.
• Template-name confirmation: the subtitles describe an electronic or electrolytic capacitor. The visible Template is Electrolytic Cap; Display Name becomes Electrolytic Capacitor after selection. The visible UI wording is used here.
• Completion boundary: Template selection and the updated Preview are visible, but CREATE has not been selected. The usable Electric Component Tree or editing environment is not yet demonstrated.
• New from template... and Deep clone from asset... are visible in the dropdown only; this session does not execute them.

Open Electronic Component

1. Select Electronic Component in the menu bar and confirm that Electric Component Tree and New Component are displayed.

The Electronic Component module is open.

Open the component creation dialog

1. Click the main New Component button to enter component creation. Do not choose a different branch from its dropdown.

The Create Electric Component dialog is open.

Select Template and check Preview

1. In Component Type in Create Electric Component, select Electrolytic Cap. Check that Display Name becomes Electrolytic Capacitor, Shape Type is Radial Component, and Preview shows a cylindrical electrolytic capacitor.

Electrolytic Cap is selected, and the preview is updated.

Requires confirmation: this is the visible ending state of the segment. The Electric Component Tree and editing environment must be checked separately after CREATE.

Component geometry and library metadata

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

This procedure sets the component name, reviews geometry parameters, enters library metadata and creates the component in Create Electric Component, within the recorded evidence.

Items requiring confirmation

• The subtitles recognize the target as “Electronic capacity, DMP,” but the completed Display Name visibly reads Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP. The visible value is used here.
• The contract calls for geometry dimensions to be set. Shape Type and four dimension fields are visible, with field focus and preview actions, but no dimension-value change is observed. The procedure records the visible values without claiming they were changed.
• The specified workflow lists Create and Apply. The recording shows a left click on CREATE and the resulting state, but no matching subtitle instruction. Apply is not shown or narrated.
• The expected ending requires agreement between the 3D view and Property. The resulting tree, Name, Library and Member ID are visible, and the status bar reports 220 triangles. The component body is not clearly visible, so agreement between geometry and Property remains unverified.

Display Name

1. Enter Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP in Display Name. The completed value is visible at 00:01:27.250.

Display Name is set to Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP.

Pending confirmation: the subtitle and screen values differ. This guide follows the screen.

Advanced geometry

1. On Advanced geometry, review Shape Type, Body Diameter (D), Body Height (H), Lead Spacing (P) and Lead Diameter (d). The example shows Radial Component, 8.0 mm, 11.5 mm, 3.5 mm and 0.60 mm, respectively.

Review the dimensions in Advanced geometry.

Pending confirmation: the recording does not show the dimensions being changed. These are the values visible in this example.

1. Left-click in the central preview to inspect the geometry corresponding to the dimensions. The red expanding ring at 00:02:09.133 indicates the left click.

Inspect the component geometry in the preview area.

Library & metadata

1. Left-click Library & metadata (optional). At 00:02:28.533, the tab shows a red click ring and the Package Name, Manufacturer, MPN, Component Library and Part Number fields appear.

Open Library & metadata (optional).

1. Enter a test manufacturer in Manufacturer. The completed example value is TEST_Manufacture, visible at 00:03:00.000.

Manufacturer is set to TEST_Manufacture.

Pending confirmation: the narration only specifies entering test. The full TEST_Manufacture value comes from the screen.

1. Enter TEST_CAN in MPN. The value is visible at 00:03:07.500.

MPN is set to TEST_CAN.

Pending confirmation: the subtitle does not clearly identify the field or value. MPN and TEST_CAN follow the screen.

1. Open the Component Library list and left-click UIBU. The red click ring is visible on UIBU at 00:03:16.800.

Select UIBU from Component Library.

1. In Part Number, enter the identifier to display in the component library. This example uses TEST_CAN_UIBU. Entry starts around 00:03:22.500 and the completed value is visible at 00:03:28.500.

Part Number is set to TEST_CAN_UIBU.

Pending confirmation: the narration describes the library display value without clearly naming the field or full value. Both follow the screen.

Create and check the result

1. After checking the fields, left-click CREATE. A red expanding ring appears on the button.

Click CREATE.

Pending confirmation: the recording and session specification support this action, but there is no matching subtitle instruction. Confirm this step before formal release.

After creation, check that Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP appears in the component tree. Verify Name = Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP, Library = UIBU and Member ID = TEST_CAN_UIBU in the properties.

Pending confirmation: this screen supports the metadata and Library/Member results. The component body is not clearly visible and no Apply action is shown. Full 3D/Property agreement and Apply completion are not established.

Connector orientation and pick point

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

In DIATwin Machine Pilot v1.6.0-beta, select DataNode Connector, obtain a position from the 3D model, adjust its orientation and apply the Part Pick Point with USE POSE.

Items requiring confirmation

Before you start: focus on the electronic component

1. In the Electric Component Tree, right-click Component Asset Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP.

Open the context menu on the Component Asset node.

1. Click PICK THE CONNECTOR'S POSE IN THE 3D WORLD at the lower right to open Pick pose.

Click the blue Pick button to open Pick pose.

UOP-EC-002: select a position, set the orientation and apply

1. Adjust the orientation to suit the model axes. This example uses FLIP Z. The same dialog also offers Z=NORMAL, ALIGN WORLD and ROTATE 90°.

In Pick pose, use Z=NORMAL or FLIP Z as required by the model.

1. Select the circular upper edge of the component in the 3D view. Check that Edge(Circle) appears in Picks and that Position contains the selected coordinates.

Select Edge Circle in the 3D view to obtain the Connector position.

1. In Pick pose, verify or enter Position: X=0, Y=0, Z=13; Orientation: Rx=0, Ry=-90, Rz=0.
2. Pending confirmation: the Orientation values are unclear in the subtitles. This step uses the legible screen values.

Set Position to X=0, Y=0, Z=13 and Orientation to Rx=0, Ry=-90, Rz=0.

1. Click USE POSE to apply Pick pose to the Connector.

Connector Property is updated after USE POSE.

Completion checks

1. Visually check that Connector Property and the 3D axes show the applied Part Pick Point. Following the correction in the narration, the X axis points upward and the Z axis follows the direction of the two leads.

Connector Property and the 3D axes show the applied pose.

5.4 Manufacturing properties, bounding geometry and Link/Joint

Manufacturing data and Bounding Box

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

This procedure uses the recording and timed subtitles to check existing component data, add AMBU Component and create a Bounding Box for LinkBase from a reference plane. It also supplies the UOP-EC-003 procedure required by the session specification.

Confirmation and alignment notes

• At 00:08:15–00:09:13, the narration checks existing nodes and Property without repeating the clicks. Steps 1–2 use the visible stable states and remain marked for confirmation.
• The two branches appear as Add box from a plane... and Fit one box to the whole link. Only the first is demonstrated; the second is a visible alternative.
• The narration refers to setting LinkBase Fixed to true. The screen instead shows two settings: Physics Enabled: True and Joint Type: Fixed. Check both; the intended single setting remains unresolved.

Check existing nodes and basic data

1. Check the basic Link LinkBase and Connector data.
2. Confirm that Link LinkBase exists in the Electric Component Tree. The Connector panel shows Shape Type, Body Diameter (D), Body Height (H), Lead Spacing (P) and Lead Diameter (d).

Figure 1: Link LinkBase exists and Connector shows the basic dimensions.

Pending confirmation: the recording starts in this state and does not show Link LinkBase being selected again.

1. Check the Electric Component identification and geometry properties.
2. Select Electric Component and check Display name, MPN, Manufacturer, Package and Geometry dimensions under ParametricBasicElectricComponentShape.

Figure 2: Electric Component identification, package and Geometry fields.

Pending confirmation: only the resulting selected state is visible; there is no identifiable click ring.

Add an AMBU manufacturing data node

1. Open the context menu on the component root node.
2. Right-click Component Asset Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP. The blue expanding ring indicates a right click.

Figure 3: the component root context menu includes Add AssetValue.

1. Select Add AssetValue > AMBU Component.
2. Point to Add AssetValue, then click AMBU Component in the submenu.

Figure 4: select AMBU Component in the Add AssetValue submenu.

1. Check the new node and populated manufacturing data.
2. Select the new AMBU Component. Verify Component name, Part Number, Shape, Height, Length, Width, Pin Diameter, Pin Interval Distance, Tolerance, Pin Row Count and Pin Total Count in the right panel.

Figure 5: AMBU Component exists and its manufacturing fields are populated from the existing component data.

Create a Bounding Box

1. Open Bounding Box... from Link LinkBase.
2. Right-click Link LinkBase and select Bounding Box... at the bottom of the menu.

Figure 6: Bounding Box... in the Link LinkBase context menu.

1. Review the two Bounding Box creation methods.
2. The panel offers Add box from a plane... and Fit one box to the whole link. This procedure uses Add box from a plane....

Figure 7: the two Bounding Box creation methods.

1. Start Add box from a plane....
2. Click Add box from a plane... to define a reference plane and height.

Figure 8: Add box from a plane... starts the reference-plane workflow.

1. Select the reference plane in Step 1.
2. In Step 1 : Select the Reference Plane, click SELECT, then select the upper planar face in the 3D view. The selected face appears green.

Figure 9: the upper face is selected as the reference plane and highlighted green.

Set the reference-plane method to Feature-Aligned.

• Select Feature-Aligned to align the box with the selected face features. If changing the method displays No Selection., click SELECT again and reselect the reference plane.

Figure 10: Feature-Aligned is selected; the changed method displays No Selection..

Set the Bounding Box height in Step 2.

• Following the prompt, select another face or depth point in the 3D view to complete Step 2 : Set Height. This example shows Height 11.500 mm, with the purple preview covering the component height.

Figure 11: the Feature-Aligned plane is defined; Height is 11.500 mm and the purple box shows the preview.

Create Apply and Bounding Box.

• Check the name LinkBase_BoundingBox_1, then click Apply. The red expanding ring indicates the left click.

Figure 12: click Apply after defining LinkBase_BoundingBox_1.

Verify the geometry coverage and LinkBase settings

Check that the Bounding Box encloses the component.

• Select Bounding Box 1 box and inspect the orange outline from several angles. It should enclose the component. The panel should list LinkBase_BoundingBox_1, dimensions 8.00 × 8.00 × 11.50 mm and Built from a plane, Feature-Aligned.

Figure 13: the orange box encloses the component; the panel lists its name, dimensions and Feature-Aligned method.

Pending confirmation: another control name is unclear in the subtitles and cannot be established from the screen. No additional button action is specified.

In Modeling, check the LinkBase physics, Joint and Bounding Object settings.

• Switch to Modeling and select LinkBase in Component Tree. Verify Physics Enabled = True, Joint Type = Fixed and LinkBase_BoundingBox_1 in Bounding Object Settings.

Figure 14: Physics Enabled: True, Joint Type: Fixed and LinkBase_BoundingBox_1 are visible.

Pending confirmation: the narration about changing Fixed to true does not identify a single screen field. The screen shows Physics Enabled: True and Joint Type: Fixed separately.

Completion: AMBU Component exists, LinkBase_BoundingBox_1 is created with visible dimensions and the Feature-Aligned method, and the box visibly encloses the component.

5.5 Gripper, feeder and pose relationships

Pending details: single Tool/Feeder relationships are documented. Rules for multiple Pick Poses, the exact Tool frame/TCP definitions and their effects still need clarification.

Select a component before opening relations.

Selecting Component Relations with no component selected displays Select an electric component first. Prepare and select a component before configuring relations. Tool and feeder relationships are described but not configured here.

Scene Roles entry.

Scene Roles is to the right of Component Relations. The narration associates it with the role of a component and explicitly defers the details. No role configuration procedure is demonstrated.

Tool Relationship and Pick Pose

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Purpose

Select a compatible tool for an electronic component in DIATwin Machine Pilot, create a Tool Relationship and define and save a Pick Pose using the 3D model.

Items requiring confirmation

• Tool-name conflict: the subtitle identifies BC010, while the selection dialog and saved result show VC0101. This guide uses the visible VC0101; step 4 remains marked for confirmation.
• Control-name recognition error: the subtitle misidentifies the control as Choose France, and D. The screen reads CHOOSE FROM 3D. This guide follows the screen; step 6 remains marked for confirmation.
• Tool frame/TCP evidence is incomplete. The screen shows Component frame = Origin (component root), Mount point = No Mount Point and Tool frame = Origin. There is no explicit Tool frame/TCP instruction or clearly visible TCP field, so no separate setup procedure is provided.
• Multiple Pick Poses are not demonstrated. The matrix allows multiple poses per tool, but this recording only shows Default pose and no verifiable creation of a second pose.
• No unsupported or incompatible Tool warning appears in this example. Its handling is therefore not inferred.

Part 1: create a Tool Relationship

1. Open Component Relations

In the component editor, click Component Relations on the left. The relationship editor opens on the Tool tab.

2. Add a tool relationship

On the Tool tab, click ADD at the upper right.

3. Select a Tool Catalog group

In the tool-selection dialog, select D30ToolCatalog from Group.

4. Select VC0101

• Pending confirmation: the subtitle says BC010, while the screen shows VC0101.

Select VC0101 in the tool list. The preview shows its 3D model and information.

5. Confirm the tool

Confirm that VC0101 is selected and click OK to add it to Tool Relationship.

Part 2: configure Pick Pose

6. Start 3D picking

• Pending confirmation: the subtitle misidentifies the button; the screen reads CHOOSE FROM 3D. The actual click precedes the aligned interval by approximately 4.450 seconds.

In Relative pose, click CHOOSE FROM 3D to enter the Pick pose selection mode.

7. Select the Pick pose position on the model

Select the gripping position on the component in the 3D view. The Pick pose axes appear and the panel displays the pose values.

8. Adjust Pick pose orientation

For this example, set the Pick pose rotation to Rx = -90°, Ry = -90° and Rz = 0°. Check the 3D axes to verify the tool orientation. Other models may require different gripping poses; adjust the values to the actual model.

9. Apply Pick pose

Check the orientation, then click USE POSE to apply Pick pose to Relative pose in Tool Relationship.

Part 3: save the relationship

10. Save and check the status

Click SAVE TARGET. Check that VC0101 shows the green Edited status and the bottom of the screen reports 0 unsaved edit(s). No visible edits remain unsaved in this example.

Completion checks

Feeder Relationship and Feed Pose

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Use this recorded example to select a Feeder, define its feed pose from 3D and save the Feeder Relationship.

Items requiring confirmation

• The specification requires Add Feeder, but this recording segment starts in Select Feeder asset. It does not establish that Add Feeder was clicked, so that action is not added to the procedure.
• The specification requests Feeder frame/Source and Part Seating Point settings. The screen shows Feeder frame = Origin and Source = relationauthoring without an explicit edit. The 3D selection interface identifies Pick pose/Face, not Part Seating Point. Their equivalence requires product-owner confirmation.
• The subtitle values at 00:17:19.736–00:17:28.596 are distorted. Only the clearly visible Z = 1.500 mm value is used; no other values are inferred.
• SAVE TARGET is narrated approximately 4.430 seconds after the saved state appears. The screen shows green Edited and 0 unsaved edit(s), but no separate update-completed message.

Select a Feeder

1. 00:16:22.806–00:16:36.316

In Select Feeder asset, select Tape_3_Radial from D30FeederCatalog. Check the preview, then click OK.

Pending confirmation: this step establishes Feeder selection and confirmation. The preceding Add Feeder action is outside the recorded segment.

Define Feed Pose from 3D

1. 00:16:43.356–00:16:50.516

In Relative pose under Feeder Relationship, click CHOOSE FROM 3D to enter Pick pose.

1. 00:16:53.316–00:17:07.706

Rotate the 3D view to match the component feed direction and clearly expose the leads and underside. Select the bottom face as the pose reference.

Pending confirmation: the selected item is labeled Face. The source does not establish whether this is the specified Part Seating Point.

1. 00:17:12.396–00:17:18.436

Check the axes and orientation in Pick pose. They should match the component arrangement and seating in the Feeder.

1. 00:17:19.736–00:17:28.596

Set Z to 1.500 mm in Pick pose. The same frame also shows X = 0.000, Y = 0.000, RX = 0.000, RY = 0.000 and RZ = 0.000, but the subtitles do not establish instructions to set those fields.

Pending confirmation: values other than 1.5 cannot be reliably recovered from the subtitles. Product specifications must establish whether the other axis values are standard parameters.

1. 00:17:36.286–00:17:45.516

Use ROTATE 90° so that X points right and Y points forward. Check the orientation and apply USE POSE. Back in Relationship, Relative pose shows Z = 1.500 mm and RZ = 90.000°.

Save Feeder Relationship

1. 00:17:50.936–00:17:57.056

5.6 Saving, preview and downstream checks

Read these save and lookup procedures together with the downstream lookup in Deep Clone. [1]

Pending result: persistence after saving and reopening has not been verified for every field. This does not invalidate the completion checks established for individual examples.

Prerequisite for Save to Library.

Save to Library is the entry for storing the current component in the asset library. No component is selected: the dialog shows No electric component is currently selected., and the Console also reports mCurrentComponentRoot is null; aborting. This is not a successful save.

Classify and save to the asset library

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Assign the (pr)-component role, set the component-library classification and 3D preview, and safely update the same asset when its name already exists. Red expanding rings indicate left clicks; solid yellow circles indicate cursor position only.

Items requiring confirmation

• The specification calls this Component Tag. The recorded UI is Scene Role Assignment and uses the (pr)-component role tag. This guide follows the visible UI names.
• The specification and narration refer to Part Number, but Save to Asset Library labels the field Member ID, with value TEST_CAN_UIBU. Product-owner confirmation is needed to establish whether they represent the same business field.
• The narration calls the final button Save; the screen reads OK. This guide uses OK.
• If Save as new asset reports Name already exists, select Update existing asset only after verifying that the name identifies the same asset and you have permission to update it. This example does not authorize overwriting another asset.
• Full paths in the background Console and save dialog have been masked in the derived screenshots.

Assign the (pr)-component role

1. Select (pr)-component on the (PR) tab.
2. With Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP selected in SCENE NODES, left-click (pr)-component on the (PR) tab in ROLE PICKER.

2. In Save to Asset Library, select Save as new asset under Save mode. Update existing asset is also available.

Select Save as new asset in Save to Asset Library.

1. Check the classification and identifier.
2. Under Group membership, verify Group = UIBU and Member ID = TEST_CAN_UIBU. Also check Name, Description and Asset version. The full save path is hidden in the screenshot.

Verify Group = UIBU and Member ID = TEST_CAN_UIBU.

1. Create a preview from the 3D view.
2. Left-click Capture from 3D view. Preview should change from No preview to Source: Captured (3D) and display a model thumbnail.

Click Capture from 3D view to create a preview.

1. Attempt to save a new asset.
2. Left-click OK at the bottom of the dialog. In this recording, Name already exists appears in red beneath Name.
3. Pending confirmation: the narration calls this Save, but the screen reads OK. The actual click precedes the aligned time by 2.167 seconds.

Click OK to attempt the save. The screen reports Name already exists.

1. For a duplicate name, switch to updating the same asset.
2. First verify that the duplicate name refers to the same asset and that you have update permission. Then select Update existing asset. If it is a different asset, stop and do not overwrite it.

After verifying that it is the same asset, select Update existing asset.

1. Perform the update.
2. Left-click OK at the bottom to update the existing asset.

Click OK to update the existing asset.

1. Check the save result and dismiss the message.
2. Verify that the Save to Asset Library message reads saved, then left-click OK.

Confirm the saved message, then click OK.

Verify the electronic component and accessory relationship from Product

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Verify that the new electronic component can be selected in the Product BOM. Then inspect its accessory relationship in MfgSettings > Relations, adjust the 3D pose and perform the save action.

Assumptions and items requiring confirmation

• Pending confirmation: some UI names, including Product, New Board and MfgSettings, are misrecognized in the subtitles. The procedure follows the narrated intent and uses readable screen labels. Unmatched narration is not added as an action.
• Pending confirmation: the narration appears to mention a refresh after creating the file, but no distinct Refresh action can be reliably identified. No extra step is added.
• Pending confirmation: the source does not demonstrate the not-found or incorrect-Relation failure/recovery branches. No recovery procedure is inferred.
• Pending confirmation: Relations shows the VC0101/Electrolytic Capacitor_DMP row but does not directly label VC0101 as a Tool or Feeder.
• Pending confirmation: the recording shows Save being clicked without a separate success message. Only the save action is established.

Create a new Product Board

Click File at the upper left to open the file menu.

Click New Board to create a board.

Set the final Z value to -0.0620 m and check that the component pose is as intended.

6. Single-board products and annotations

This chapter provides a complete single-board example, followed by Gerber, BOM, Footprint, Fiducial and product-saving procedures.

6.1 New Board, Link and model import

Product creation entries.

Select Product to locate New Board, New Panel, and New Carrier. The narration introduces single-board, panel, and multiple-board contexts; no product is created here.

New Board dropdown.

Expand the dropdown beside New Board to identify standard creation and template-based creation entries. The menu does not establish template availability or a completed board.

Create Link: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Gerber Links and physical geometry layers in a product.

Procedure

Use Create Link to create different mask layers, typically for top-side and bottom-side insertion. A physical geometry layer can describe the board size and thickness.

Limitations and pending information

The source typo has been corrected to bottom side. FOP-002 includes Top Layer (Gerber) and 3D Shape branches; the bottom-side option name still needs screen confirmation. Link creation and artwork import are described separately.

Import Gerber Shape: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

A mask layer on a selected node.

Procedure

Use Import Gerber Shape to add a mask layer to the selected node.

Limitations and pending information

FOP-003 shows the Link_GerberTop context-menu entry, file selection and loaded result. This example does not establish support for every node or file format.

P01 | Create, Annotate, and Save a Single Board

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

Purpose and expected result

Practice creating a single board, importing Gerber, linking the BOM, annotating insertion positions and two fiducials, setting shape, dimensions, and the default locating point, and saving. Use the confirmed Demo_Single_Board as the completed reference. Finish when your product can be found in Recipe.

Before you start

Prepare the standard training Gerber and corresponding component library, and ensure Demo_Single_Board is available in ProductCatalog as a reference. New Single Boards include the UIBU library category by default. Official Gerber data location: C:\Users\Public\DeltaDelectronics\DIATwin\My Model\MachinePilot\gerber\APEX . Follow the specified annotations; recreating the entire reference-board BOM is not required. The evidenced TestBoard/C52 procedure is retained as a method example, not a complete record of building Demo_Single_Board.

Check after the operation: The list contains two named Fiducials.

Step 14 | Set the board shape

Select ParametricShape under Link_Shape and choose the board color. Use Measure on the toolbar to measure two opposite corners of the outline. Enter Length, Width, and Height, then select GENERATE. The example uses 304.8 / 165 / 3 mm.

Check after the operation: The board shape is generated.

Step 15 | Adjust Gerber height

Exit Measure (if necessary, click once, then press Esc). Right-click GerberTop and choose Move. Enter Z=3.001 and select OK; this corresponds to the example's 3 mm board thickness.

Check after the operation: Gerber appears just above the board surface.

Step 16 | Set Workpart dimensions

Select the Board's Workpart and measure opposite corners to check the overall Width, Length, and Thickness. Final example values are 165 / 304.8 / 3.001 mm; do not treat other initial From Shape readings as final values.

Check after the operation: The dimensions match your board.

Step 17 | Create the default Mount Point

Right-click Mountpoint → Create Mount Point, then select Corner Mount Point to inspect the default locating point.

Check after the operation: Corner Mount Point appears in the tree. Advanced Pick / Move / Seat operations are outside this task.

Step 18 | Save your product

Check after the operation: A save-success message appears. Check the asset name, then close it.

Step 19 | Find the product in Recipe

Select Recipe, open Create Project in Project Creation, and look for your saved name in the Product list. Use Demo_Single_Board separately as the completed reference.

Check after the operation: Your product can be found and selected in Recipe.

Completion checks

• [ ] Gerber, BOM, and required annotations have been created for the single board.
• [ ] BOM and Insertion Designators match, and components are visible in Payload Preview.
• [ ] Two named fiducials, board dimensions, and a default Mount Point are present.
• [ ] The saved product can be found in Recipe; its name need not match the example.

Limitations and notes

Use of Demo_Single_Board as the completed reference is confirmed. This does not reopen the accepted historical TestBoard Error or version differences. Old images demonstrate the method, not every part of the reference board. Advanced Hole, Reload Product, and Mount Point topics are separate.

6.2 Layer management and Gerber cleanup

Pending result: the targets of Delete and Remove are described. Undo/recovery guarantees and the complete reconstruction procedure after deletion remain unconfirmed.

Link Feature Data and layers.

Link Feature Data at the lower left manages feature data layers. The narration mentions 2D Gerber and 3D STEP data and describes color, lock, hide, and delete operations. The list is empty; no import or layer operation is demonstrated.

Remove Imported feature: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

A single imported mask-feature layer.

Procedure

Use Remove Imported feature to remove one imported mask-feature layer.

Limitations and pending information

FOP-007 also documents deleting an entire layer using the Link Feature Data trash icon. The two entry points are not proven equivalent. Do not assume that this command preserves child data.

Gerber Line Edit Mode: common procedure

6.3 BOM, part numbers and Designator

Pending formats: manual BOM creation and component selection are covered. BOM/PNP import templates, field rules and error handling still need documentation. See 12.02 for the format entry point. [1]

Create a BOM and link a part number

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Add an Electrical Component to a Machine Pilot BOM, link a part number from the visible library and set Designator to C52. This procedure is intended for internal engineers and operators creating or maintaining product annotations for the first time.

Assumptions and pending confirmations

• Version pending confirmation: the session specification names v1.6.0-beta, but the recording title bar shows only 1.6.0. Their equivalence is not assumed.
• Library switching pending confirmation: UIBU and Internal Library tabs are visible. The cursor passes over Internal Library, but its contents are not shown. Only the UIBU click is established; the procedure therefore uses UIBU.
• Misrecognized subtitle terms such as bone/boom are not used as UI names. This guide follows the visible BOM, Electrical Component List, Component Library Search, UIBU, Internal Library, LINK, Part No. and Designator labels.

Create an Electrical Component entry

1. Select BOM in Annotation Tree to display Electrical Component List.

6.4 Footprint and Fiducial

Example limitation: the legacy Footprint example below retains the Payload Preview Error state; it is not presented as a successful result. See 6.01 for the complete single-board example and its applicability. [1]

Purpose of Payload Preview.

Payload Preview is introduced for inspecting annotation positions and component rotation using 3D geometry. The narration explains that 2D annotation positions alone do not determine component orientation. No product preview or rotation adjustment result is shown.

Product annotation panels.

In Product, locate Annotation Tree on the left and Annotation properties on the right. These panels provide the locations for inspecting annotation data and parameters when an annotation is selected.

Footprint: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Selecting line features and defining a center.

Procedure

Select the required line features by clicking or dragging a selection box. Define the center from the centroid of the selected features. To deselect some segments, hold Ctrl and use the mouse to deselect them.

Limitations and pending information

This action deselects lines; it does not delete them. The exact Ctrl/mouse gesture and center calculation formula are unspecified. Centroid must not be reinterpreted as the bounding-box center.

Insertion Footprint and Payload Preview (legacy example)

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

For internal engineers and operators creating or maintaining product annotations for the first time. Using the specified subtitles and matching recording, this example creates an Insertion Annotation, selects Footprint features, corrects Designator to C52 and runs Payload Preview.

Assumptions and items requiring confirmation

• Several English UI names are misrecognized in the subtitles. This guide uses readable screen labels, including Annotation Context, Annotation properties, Insertion Annotation, ADD, Continuous Edition, Footprint, Designator, EDIT and Payload Preview.
• The session specification names v1.6.0-beta, while the recording title bar shows only 1.6.0. Whether these version labels are equivalent remains unconfirmed.
• The final screen shows Footprint, C52 and the corresponding 3D component in Payload Preview. However, Annotations still reports Error and Console contains error messages. A visible preview is established; error-free completion is not. The complete ending state remains unconfirmed.

Create an Insertion Annotation

1. Select Annotation Context.
2. Select Annotation Context in Annotation Tree and check that Annotation properties appears on the right.

Selecting Annotation Context displays Annotation properties.

1. Switch to Insertion Annotation.
2. Open the type list in Annotation properties and select Insertion Annotation.

1. Enter the temporary Designator from the example.
2. In Continuous Edition, enter the visible example value C73 in Designator, then click EDIT.

Enter C73 in Designator and click EDIT.

Correct Designator to C52

1. Return to BOM to check the correct Designator.
2. Select BOM and verify that linked part number 495-2473-3-ND has Designator C52. The Footprint annotation still temporarily shows C73.

Check in BOM that the linked part number uses C52.

Correct the annotation Designator to C52.

• Return to the Insertion Annotation properties and enter C52 in Designator. Verify C52 in the tree, visible annotation and property field.

Correct Designator to C52; the Footprint/C52 association is visible.

Pending confirmation: the Annotations item still shows Error. This screen establishes the visible C52 association, not a passed validation state.

Run Payload Preview

Start Payload Preview.

• Click Payload Preview on the upper toolbar.

Click Payload Preview on the toolbar.

Pending confirmation: the 3D result is visible, but Annotations remains in Error. This segment does not establish complete success.

Create two Fiducials

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

This procedure records only the Fiducial workflow supported by both subtitles and video in SCN-001-SES-004. Planned requirements without visual support remain pending confirmation.

Assumptions and pending confirmations

• Ambiguous subtitle terms are resolved using the visible ADD, Fiducial, Designator and Gerber feature labels.
• The recording shows the list after an extra blank Fiducial is removed, but not a clear deletion control or click ring. The deletion method remains unconfirmed.
• FID1 Property/3D Highlight remains unconfirmed. The cursor approaches FID1 in Annotation Tree, but Annotation properties still selects C52 – Insertion. Individual Property selection and the corresponding 3D Highlight are not clearly shown. Screenshot pending.
• FID02 Property/3D Highlight remains unconfirmed. The cursor approaches FID02 in Annotation Tree, but Annotation properties still selects C52 – Insertion. Individual Property selection and the corresponding 3D Highlight are not clearly shown. Screenshot pending.

10. Exit Continuous Create

Select CANCEL to exit Continuous Create.

11. Check that the extra item is removed

Check that Annotation Tree no longer contains the unnamed blank Fiducial and retains only FID1 and FID02.

Pending confirmation: the recording establishes only the resulting state, without a clear deletion control or click ring.

12. Check that both Fiducials exist

Verify FID1 – Fiducial and FID02 – Fiducial in the Fiducial Annotation list. The 3D view also retains the product and reference-point labels.

This frame establishes that both items exist. It does not establish individual selection in Property and the corresponding 3D Highlight. That requirement remains unverified.

6.5 Save a Board and find the product

See 6.01 for the complete single-board saving procedure. Product names, versions and lookup results below apply only to this recorded example. [1]

Check after the operation: The object being edited is the entire Carrier.

Step 08 | Measure and set dimensions

Use Measure Diagonal on the right. Pick a bottom-face corner and the diagonally opposite top-face corner to measure the entire production carrier. Dimensions and thickness are expected to populate automatically; Thickness may also be entered manually. Verify Width=436, Length=388, and Thickness=17 mm.

Check after the operation: All three fields match the example values.

Step 09 | Create a Mount Point

Right-click Carrier's Mountpoint → Create Mount Point. Select Corner Mount Point to preview the default locating point at the carrier's lower-right corner.

Check after the operation: The default locating point is visible; do not open Set Seat in 3D.

Step 10 | Set save information

Select Save to Library. Check Name=Carrier_Stp or your name, Save folder, and the added ProductCatalog group. Select Capture from 3D view, check the carrier preview, then select OK.

Check after the operation: The carrier asset save has been submitted.

Step 11 | Confirm successful saving

Confirm that the asset name in the success message matches the name you saved, then select OK.

Check after the operation: The example message is Saved Carrier_Stp to the Asset Library.

Step 12 | Find the product in Recipe

Open Recipe → Project Creation → Create Project. Find Carrier_Stp or your chosen saved name in the Product list.

Check after the operation: The task is complete when the product can be selected.

Completion checks

• [ ] The STEP shape and both boards are loaded.
• [ ] Position, rotation, and dimensions 436 / 388 / 17 match the example settings.
• [ ] The default locating point is created and saving succeeded.
• [ ] The saved product can be found in Recipe.

Limitations and notes

This task creates a separate production carrier; it does not replace P03's Box. The 17 mm dimension and Z=0 position are different fields. Physical installation checks, Reload Product, advanced Mount Point, and Set Seat are outside this task.

7.4 Remove, save and find downstream

The complete panel, conceptual-carrier and STEP-carrier examples each include saving and Recipe lookup. The common procedures below distinguish Delete Board from Remove; removal effects for different objects are not interchangeable. [1] [2] [3]

Delete Board: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

A product node.

Procedure

Use Delete Board to delete the selected product node.

Limitations and pending information

Effects on child data, the asset library and other references are unspecified, as is recovery. Cascading deletion or reversibility is not promised.

Remove: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Typically applies to a Link node.

Procedure

Remove typically removes a Link node while retaining its child data and nodes within the overall product.

Limitations and pending information

The resulting tree location, reference relationships and relinking method are unspecified. Do not extend this behavior to Delete Board or Remove Imported feature.

8. Product dimensions, coordinates and mount points

This chapter covers dimensions, corners, reference planes and mounting positions. Procedures and pending results are identified separately.

8.1 Workpart, measurement and From Shape

For board Parametric Shape, measurement, Gerber height and Workpart, see the single-board example. For carrier Box/Workpart settings, see the conceptual carrier; for dimensions from STEP, see the STEP carrier. The common From Shape description follows. [1] [2] [3]

From Shape: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

Workpart Width, Length and Thickness.

Procedure

Click From Shape to obtain the bounding shape from Link_Shape and populate Width, Length and Thickness.

Limitations and pending information

FOP-021 shows that populated values may still require adjustment. Automatic population does not guarantee correct final board dimensions. The bounding orientation and calculation method are unspecified.

8.2 Coordinates, corners and Create Mount Point

Mountpoint Settings: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

The entry point for product mount-point operations.

Procedure

According to the latest clarification, the product-node context-menu entry Mountpoint Settings is currently unsupported as an entry path. Use the Mountpoint node in the tree instead.

Limitations and pending information

The exact build is unspecified. This is an entry-path limitation, not a statement that the entire Mount Point feature is unsupported. Whether the source wording means the root product node remains unconfirmed.

Create Mount Point: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

The Mountpoint node and processing context.

Procedure

Right-click Mountpoint in the tree and select Create Mount Point. This clarification focuses on wcs_flr: front-side processing, left-to-right product flow, and the connection point on the lower fixed conveyor side.

Limitations and pending information

The source wording is provisionally understood to mean mount points at eight corners, but the automatic count is not directly confirmed and is not guaranteed. MountPointSetting defines the eight corners and the front-view interpretation rule. wcs_flr is not a universal choice.

Mounting corners, reference planes and setup order

User supplied clarification for v1.6.0-beta; new audiovisual result verification is still pending.

1. Purpose and starting point

For a first mounting setup, choose the corner for the product's usage, define its position and orientation from product features, fine-tune if needed, then save and verify in Recipe.

To correct an existing assembly position or orientation, start in Recipe. That need is retained, but this edition does not provide the complete troubleshooting workflow.

The source discussion uses Traditional Chinese with English UI names. This publication provides English and Traditional Chinese editions.

2. Prerequisites and required completion checks

User-confirmed prerequisites:

• Product geometry is complete.
• The product's flow direction is known.
• The corner can be selected for the intended usage; this unit explains how to interpret that choice.

Prior knowledge of the conveyor direction is not required. An unclear reference to Gerber in the subtitles is not treated as a prerequisite for every product.

Required completion: define the needed corners, save the product, and check position and orientation for both L2R and R2L in Recipe. These are user-confirmed acceptance criteria, not newly verified recording results.

3. Confirmed operation dependencies

Complete product geometry and identify its flow → Select the corner for the processing side and usage → Use Set Seat in 3D to define position and orientation from product features → If needed, fine-tune by dragging or entering values in Move in 3D → Save the product → Open Recipe → Check L2R position and orientation → Check R2L position and orientation.

This is the latest user-confirmed dependency order. The recording discusses Move before feature-based setup. Evidence timestamps remain unchanged; the reading order follows these logical dependencies.

4. How the two functions work together

Fine-tuning is optional, not mandatory for every setup. This unit does not imply that Move is limited to this use case.

Naming: this edition follows the latest user term Set Seat in 3D. Earlier project preferences used Set Seed in 3D. The exact UI spelling still needs screen verification; global preferences are unchanged.

5. Corner interpretation

The table follows the user's eight-corner explanation, which is an accepted written source. Exact UI capitalization still needs screen verification.

The user describes front-side processing using Z and the upper direction using Y. Identify the target corner from the use case before defining features. The screen's current lower-right position is not a fixed product corner.

Confirmed interpretation rule: all eight corners use the product's front view to determine upper/lower and left/right. Back-side processing keeps that same front-view reference; do not reverse left and right by viewing from the back. This is the current DIATwin MachinePilot v1.6.0-beta definition and applies to both text and diagrams.

For example, wcs_bll means back-side processing, lower, left. Left is still determined from the product's front view. Do not rename it right when viewing from the back. Changing the processing side does not change the corner naming reference.

6. The three product reference planes

The three references jointly define the connection point's position and orientation. The procedure must connect each selected product feature to its direction and the resulting interpretation.

The formerly unknown final reference is now clarified as the fixed support side for product transport. This written clarification does not establish that the actual face selection has been seen in the recording.

7. Required procedure coverage

1. Check product conditions and context: complete geometry, known flow direction and processing needs.
2. Identify the target corner from the processing side, upper/lower and left/right definitions.
3. Define from features with Set Seat in 3D, explaining the stop face, transport face and fixed support side. Exact UI operations and confirmation still require evidence.
4. Fine-tune if needed: when features provide only a reference point, use dragging or numeric adjustment in Move in 3D.
5. Save the product: include the save and product-selection actions needed to carry the settings into verification.
6. Verify both flow directions in Recipe: check L2R and R2L positions and orientations. This does not expand into a complete recipe tutorial.

The command to recreate Mount Points and its effect on existing data are unverified. Recreation is not a universal requirement for every setup.

Earlier values such as X=185, Y=167, Z=0 and a 90° rotation remain example references, not general settings. Narrated references to the conveyor or floor are also unverified example cues, not substitutes for actual position and orientation checks.

8. Scope and pending work

Included: first setup, prerequisites, corner and reference-plane principles, coordination of the two functions, saving, and L2R/R2L verification.

Deferred: Pick in 3D, later flipping operations and troubleshooting. Recipe remains the entry point for correcting existing assembly issues; repair steps are not invented for this edition.

The user resolved both conceptual questions: the transport stop face is the YZ plane and defines X; all eight corners use the product's front view, including back-side processing.

Pending audiovisual verification: exact UI spelling/capitalization, effects of recreating data, order of selecting the three faces, numeric fields and units, axis signs and Recipe results. Screenshots or successful operation evidence are not claimed before that verification.

8.3 Move Feature, Move in 3D and Set Seat

See 8.02 for Set Seat in 3D, Move in 3D, the corners and the three reference faces. The common Move Feature procedure follows. [1]

Pending steps: the actual three-face selection order, confirmation action, axis signs and units must be checked against the existing video. Conceptual descriptions are not expanded into unverified clicks.

Move Feature: common procedure

User supplied clarification. See the limitations below for build applicability and visual verification.

Purpose and target

A single imported mask-feature layer.

Procedure

Use Move Feature to move one mask-feature layer.

Limitations and pending information

The entry point, numeric fields, coordinate reference and completion button are unspecified. This operation differs from moving an entire Gerber Link or product node.

8.4 Verify mounting orientation in Recipe after saving

As confirmed in 8.02, save the product and check L2R/R2L position and orientation in Recipe. See 9.02 for the assembly entry point. [1] [2]

Pending result: this edition does not yet contain a complete same-product sequence showing save → selection in Recipe → confirmation for both flow directions. This remains a required check, not a completed verification.

9. Create a recipe and configure the machine

This chapter covers recipe projects, product assembly, specified configurations, partial constraints and whole-panel processing.

9.1 Create a Recipe and select the machine and product

Recipe workflow entry.

Select Recipe to enter the workflow. The initial Project Creation page shows Create Project and Open Project. The narration outlines product assembly, accessory configuration, flow editing/simulation, and recipe generation without performing those stages.

Create a recipe project

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

For engineers and operators who create, simulate and verify recipes offline. Open Recipe Generation, select Create Project and check the initial Machine and Product contents on the project creation page.

Assumptions and unresolved conflicts

• Version pending confirmation: the specification names v1.6.0-beta. The title bar reads DIATwin_Machine_Pilot Enterprise Edition - 1.6.0, without a visible beta marker.
• Initial content pending confirmation: the specification requests an initial tree, but the screen shows a Machine card and a single-selection Product list. Demo_Panel is a product entry, not a separate Panel section.
• Ending-state limitation: Create Project, default_project and initial Machine/Product options are loaded. Saving or final confirmation is not shown in this segment, so persistent project creation is not established.
• The narration from 00:01:17.887 requests Next to enter Product Assembly. That belongs to the next procedure and is excluded here.

Open Recipe Generation

1. Open Recipe.
2. Click Recipe on the upper ribbon. The red expanding ring identifies the left click.

Click Recipe on the ribbon.

1. Check the Recipe Generation window.
2. Wait for Recipe Generation. Check that Project Creation shows both Create Project and Open Project. This procedure does not use Open Project.

Recipe Generation shows Create Project and Open Project.

Machine initially shows EmptyInsertionMachine.

1. Check the initial Product and Panel entries.
2. Verify Demo_Single_Board, Demo_Carrier and Demo_Panel in Product, with Demo_Single_Board selected. Remain on this page; do not click Next for this check.

The initial products are Demo_Single_Board, Demo_Carrier and Demo_Panel.

9.2 Direction, attachment and conveyor width

Object distinction: Recipe Attachment Point and product Mount Point follow separate procedures. Similar names do not make them the same operation. [1]

Set the product assembly position in the machine

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

In Product Assembly, define product position, orientation, attachment point and conveyor width, completing all four substeps.

Items requiring confirmation

• Subtitle recognition errors are corrected using visible L2R, R2L, CCW 90°, Machine base, SETTING IN 3D WORLD, Attachment Point, Adjust Conveyor Width and NEXT labels.
• Failure/recovery is specified as not applicable and no recovery is demonstrated. No unobserved recovery procedure is added.

Select Position

1. Select the assembly direction using L2R or R2L in the machine diagram. The narration associates L2R with assembly on the machine's right side and R2L with its left side. This recording first tries R2L, then selects L2R.

Choose L2R or R2L for the assembly side. This example ends with L2R selected.

1. Check Position = Left to Right (L2R), then click CONFIRM to finish position selection.

Click CONFIRM to complete Select Position.

9.3 Assign Feeders and Tools

R01 | Assign Resources and Process Board by Board

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

Purpose and expected result

Manually assign feeders, tools, and slots for each part number. Use Panelized to apply one board's plan to the other boards, then plan paths and simulate.

Before you start

Use EmptyInsertionMachine and the standard Demo_Panel. The library must contain the accessories listed below. This is the four-board Demo_Panel; P02's two-board result is not required.

Example values and adjustable items

These are reproducible examples shown in the images. You may change the configuration, but must explain the mapping between your part numbers, accessories, and slots. Example conveyor width: 350 mm.

Procedure

Step 01 | Create a Recipe

Select Recipe and open Create Project in Project Creation. Select the empty machine and Demo_Panel, then select NEXT.

Check after the operation: Product Assembly opens.

Step 02 | Set conveyor and mounting conditions

Select L2R in Select Position. Check and confirm the orientation and default Attachment Point in sequence. In Adjust Conveyor Width, enter 350 mm, select CONFIRM, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: After confirming all four assembly steps, proceed to Machine Capability Assessment.

Step 03 | Open the product configuration list

In Machine Capability Assessment, switch to Product → Feeder and inspect the part numbers and unconfigured items.

Check after the operation: Each part number can be checked against Feeder and Feeder Slot.

Step 04 | Manually assign feeders

In Product → Feeder, left-click the target part number's Feeder field to open Configure Module. In Select Module, choose Tape_3_Radial and select NEXT. In Select Slot, select 08 on the machine diagram, verify Selected Feeder slot=8, and select DONE. Wait for Installation Completed and confirm that every row with the same part number shows Tape_3_Radial / 08. Repeat for other part numbers using the table above.

Check after the operation: The four part numbers show the listed Feeders; configured positions are green.

Additional operation-detail images (2026-09-17)

Unconfigured list in Product → Feeder.

Select Tape_3_Radial, then NEXT.

Select Feeder 08, then DONE.

Installation Completed; all four rows for the part number show 08.

Step 05 | Manually assign tools

Switch to Product → Tool. Left-click the target part number's Tool field to open Configure Module. For 495-2473-3-ND, select VC0101 in Select Module, then NEXT.

In Select Slot, choose slots for your practice configuration:

• Complete configuration example: left-click 02 and then 06, without Ctrl. Confirm both slots are selected, then select DONE.
• Single-slot detail images below: select only 06, confirm Selected Tool slot=6, then select DONE. This demonstrates the method; you do not need to complete a single-slot configuration before repeating it with two slots.

Wait for Installation Completed, then check that all rows for the part number match your tool and slot choices. Repeat for the other part numbers and check the entire list. The new images directly show only 06; the user confirmed how to select 02 and 06, and the complete configuration is shown in the earlier image.

Check after the operation: All four part numbers show their assigned tools and chosen slots. When following the complete table example, each part number uses the two listed slots.

Additional operation-detail images (2026-09-17)

Installation Completed; all four rows for the part number show 06.

Step 06 | Open processing-scope settings

Select SELECT DESIGNATOR FIDUCIALS at the upper right.

Check after the operation: Open Select Designators & Fiducials to view Flattened panel and Panelized.

Step 07 | Select Panelized

Select Panelized. Retain the required Designators and the selected P_FID1 and P_FID2. Select APPLY, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: The mode plans one board and applies it to the other boards.

Step 08 | Plan the pick-and-place sequence

In Flow Editor, select PATH PLANNING and wait for the algorithm to finish.

Check after the operation: The screen lists the generated pickup and insertion sequence.

Step 09 | Open simulation

Check the operation flow, select RUN SIMULATION, and wait for initialization.

Check after the operation: The Run Simulation panel shows START.

Step 10 | Run and check the completed result

Select START, observe processing board by board, and wait for the entire simulation to finish before reading Cycle Time. Identify EXPORT DB; actual export is not required in this task.

Check after the operation: The example result is 31.800 seconds. Record your own result; the same duration is not required.

Completion checks

• [ ] Identify the Feeder, Tool, and slots used for each part number.
• [ ] Panelized mode is applied.
• [ ] Paths are generated, simulation is complete, and Cycle Time can be read.
• [ ] Know where EXPORT DB is located.

Limitations and notes

R01 does not require Lock. Do not interpret the Unconfigured count of remaining empty slots as incomplete configuration of all components. Simulation completion does not establish that all collision checks or physical-machine validation passed.

9.4 Partial constraints and automatic configuration

Example boundary: the partial-constraint example first locks specified empty slots. The whole-panel example starts differently; see 9.05. The legacy Auto Configure comparison/import procedure is also retained below, with separate results. [1]

R02 | Auto-Configuration with Reserved Empty Slots

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

Purpose and expected result

Use Demo_Carrier to practice Lock on empty slots. Keep designated slots empty while the algorithm configures other resources, then import the configuration and complete simulation.

Before you start

Use EmptyInsertionMachine and Demo_Carrier. Feeder and Tool slots to be locked must be empty when you start; Lock retains their current state.

Example values and adjustable items

Procedure

Step 01 | Select the machine and product

Open Recipe → Project Creation → Create Project. Select the empty machine and Demo_Carrier, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: Product Assembly shows Demo_Carrier.

Step 02 | Confirm product assembly

Check the defaults in Select Position, Adjust Orientation, and Select Attachment Point. Set Adjust Conveyor Width to 380 mm, select CONFIRM, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: Machine Capability Assessment opens.

Step 03 | Find the slots to keep empty

Switch to Slot → Feeder and scroll to 17–32. Check that Feeder and Part No. are empty.

Check after the operation: The target slots are empty, not slots with installed accessories.

Step 04 | Lock empty Feeder slots

Enable Lock individually for slots 17–32. Leave 1–16 available to the algorithm.

Check after the operation: The designated slots remain empty with Lock enabled.

Step 05 | Lock empty Tool slots

Switch to Tool, confirm slots 1–4 are empty, then enable Lock for them. Slots 5–8 remain available to the algorithm.

Check after the operation: Tool-slot constraints match this example.

Step 06 | Start automatic configuration

Select AUTO CONFIGURE and wait for computation to finish.

Check after the operation: Auto Configure Result appears.

Step 07 | Check the Feeder plan

On the Feeder tab in the result window, compare the current configuration with the Auto-Configured proposal. Verify that no Feeder is assigned to 17–32.

Check after the operation: The proposed configuration respects the reserved-empty-slot condition.

Step 08 | Check the Tool plan

Switch to Tool in the result window and confirm that no Tool is assigned to 1–4.

Check after the operation: The plan uses only permitted tool slots.

Step 09 | Import the configuration

Select IMPORT and read the warning about overwriting the current configuration/process. If adopting this result, select CONTINUE and wait for import to finish.

Check after the operation: The proposed configuration is applied to the machine.

Step 10 | Check applied Feeders

Return to Slot → Feeder. Check installed Feeder slots and part numbers, and confirm 17–32 remain empty.

Check after the operation: The applied configuration respects the constraints.

Step 11 | Check applied Tools

Switch to Slot → Tool. Confirm tools are installed in permitted slots and 1–4 remain empty.

Check after the operation: The Tool configuration respects the constraints.

Step 12 | View the operation flow

Select NEXT to open Flow Editor and inspect the generated pickup and insertion sequence.

Check after the operation: The flow contains processing items.

Step 13 | Run simulation

Select RUN SIMULATION. After initialization, select START and wait for this case's simulation to finish.

Check after the operation: Simulation stops in the completed state and Cycle Time can be read.

Step 14 | Check the result and export command

Record this case's Cycle Time and identify EXPORT DB. The example image shows 12.840 seconds; learners need not reproduce that duration.

Check after the operation: Explain the empty-slot constraints and this simulation result.

Completion checks

• [ ] Before planning, Feeder 17–32 and Tool 1–4 are empty and locked.
• [ ] These slots remain empty after import.
• [ ] Simulation is complete and Cycle Time is recorded.
• [ ] Identify EXPORT DB.

Limitations and notes

Lock retains the current configuration: locking an empty slot prevents accessory assignment; locking an occupied slot retains its existing state. This task practices empty-slot constraints only. Do not add PATH PLANNING as an extra mandatory step.

Auto Configure: compare and import configurations (legacy example)

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

In Machine Capability Assessment, run Auto Configuration, compare proposed configurations, import a result and verify Feeder/Tool installation positions. Actual configurations depend on the Product, Machine and source data.

Items requiring confirmation

• The recording supports starting computation, computation status, current/proposed comparisons, the Import warning and post-import tool positions/status. No specified action or ending state is missing in this segment.

Start Auto Configuration

1. Start automatic configuration
2. In Machine Capability Assessment, click AUTO CONFIGURE at the upper right.

Click AUTO CONFIGURE at the upper right of Machine Capability Assessment.

1. Check initialization and computation status
2. First-run initialization may take approximately 3–5 minutes. Check that Auto Configure Modules shows Single Optimization with time or progress updating. This indicates that initialization has finished and algorithm computation has begun.

Auto Configure Modules shows Single Optimization with updating computation status.

Compare Auto Configure Result

1. Compare current and proposed Feeder configurations
2. Wait for Auto Configure Result. On Feeder, compare the current configuration on the left with the Auto-Configured proposal on the right.

Auto Configure Result shows the current configuration on the left and Auto-Configured proposal on the right.

1. Compare Tool configurations
2. Switch to Tool and compare Present Tool with Auto-Configured Tool installation proposals.

On Tool, compare Present Tool and Auto-Configured Tool.

Import the proposed configuration

1. Import the proposed result
2. Review the proposal, then click IMPORT.

Check the proposal and click IMPORT.

• Confirm the overwrite warning

• Read Placement Process Will Be Overwritten. To replace the current placement process and related settings with the automatic configuration, click CONTINUE.

After reviewing Placement Process Will Be Overwritten, click CONTINUE to proceed.

• Monitor automatic assembly

• Wait while Auto Configure imports and assembles. In the machine diagram, configured positions change from black to bright green.

During import and assembly, configured positions change from black to green.

Verify installation positions and the ending state

1. Check imported Feeders
2. After assembly, check installed Feeders, Part No. and positions in Slot > Feeder. Configured machine positions should be green.

After import, Feeder shows installed stations and Part No.; the machine positions are green.

1. Check installed Tools
2. Open Slot > Tool and verify each Tool at its corresponding position. If the Machine has multiple towers, switch between them and check each one.

On Tool, verify each Tool at its assigned position.

Inspect Feeder assignments from Product

• Open Product > Feeder and check the Feeder and Feeder Slot for every Part No..

In Product > Feeder, check each component's Feeder and Feeder Slot.

Inspect Tool assignments from Product

• In Product, open Tool and check each Part No. against its Tool and Tool Slot. This is the visible ending state of the example.

In Product > Tool, check each Part No. against its Tool and Tool Slot.

Completion checks

9.5 Per-board and whole-panel product planning

Example boundary: this whole-panel example uses Flattened panel with no slots locked in advance. Its simulated time is 24.672 seconds. IMPORT progress at 28% or 40% does not establish completion.

R03 | Automatic Configuration Across the Whole Panel

Reviewed example. Original prerequisites, values and limitations are retained.

Purpose and expected result

Use Flattened panel with Demo_Panel so the entire panel is planned together. Do not pre-lock accessory slots. Let the algorithm configure resources and generate the flow, then complete simulation.

Before you start

Use EmptyInsertionMachine and the standard Demo_Panel. Start without pre-locking Feeder or Tool slots.

Example values and adjustable items

Procedure

Step 01 | Create a recipe

Select Recipe → Create Project. Choose the empty machine and Demo_Panel, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: Product Assembly opens.

Step 02 | Set assembly conditions

Select L2R and CONFIRM. Check the default orientation and Attachment Point. Set conveyor width to 350 mm, select CONFIRM, then NEXT.

Check after the operation: Machine Capability Assessment opens.

Step 03 | Set the whole-panel scope

Switch to Product and select SELECT DESIGNATOR FIDUCIALS. Choose Flattened panel, retain 16/16 Designators, check the two fiducials, then select APPLY.

Check after the operation: The entire panel is the planning target.

Step 04 | Check that slots are unlocked

Return to Slot and open Feeder and Tool in turn. Check that no slots are locked; release existing Locks. Make all slots available to the algorithm.

Check after the operation: R02's empty-slot locks are not retained.

Step 05 | Start AUTO CONFIGURE

Select AUTO CONFIGURE at the upper right and wait for Auto Configure Modules to finish.

Check after the operation: Executing algorithm or computation progress is visible.

Step 06 | Check and import the proposal

When Auto Configure Result appears, inspect the Auto-Configured results for Feeder and Tool. Select IMPORT, read the message, then select CONTINUE.

Check after the operation: Accessory installation starts according to the proposal.

Step 07 | Wait for configuration to finish

Monitor Importing module. Wait until configured machine positions are green, required accessories are complete, and NEXT is available.

Check after the operation: Accessories are imported and the next stage is available.

Step 08 | View the generated flow

Select NEXT to open Flow Editor. Inspect Designator, Feeder Slot, Tool Slot, and pick-and-place sequence. This flow was generated together with automatic configuration.

Check after the operation: The flow may include Designators from different child boards.

Step 09 | Open simulation

Select RUN SIMULATION, wait for initialization, and confirm START appears.

Check after the operation: Simulation is ready; Cycle Time is 0 before execution starts.

Step 10 | Start simulation

Select START. Observe the processing motion and increasing Cycle Time, and wait for all actions to finish.

Check after the operation: Elapsed time during execution is an intermediate reading, not the final result.

Step 11 | Check the completed result for the same case

After confirming simulation is complete, record Cycle Time. The original video holds at 24.672 seconds from 10:58–11:10. Learners record their own result. Identifying EXPORT DB is sufficient.

Check after the operation: The final Cycle Time for the same case is available.

Completion checks

• [ ] Flattened panel and the intended processing scope are selected.
• [ ] Feeder / Tool slots were not pre-locked before planning.
• [ ] Algorithm results are imported and the flow is generated.
• [ ] Simulation is complete; Cycle Time can be read and EXPORT DB identified.

Limitations and notes

Do not combine 24.672 with results such as 23.768 from other recordings as one run, or infer performance differences from Cycle Times under different conditions. The Lock demonstration inserted in the recording is not this case's final starting condition.

Select Fiducials and components for simulation (legacy example)

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Open the offline selection dialog, set Fiducial Set and Designator to plan, handle the Fiducial count rule and apply the settings.

Assumptions and items requiring confirmation

• UI-name clarification: the narration says select generator, but the button reads SELECT DESIGNATOR FIDUCIALS. This guide follows the screen.
• Ending-state limitation: APPLY closes the dialog and returns to Product. No separate success message or proof of persistent saving is visible.

Open and check the selection mode

1. On Product, left-click SELECT DESIGNATOR FIDUCIALS at the upper right.

Click SELECT DESIGNATOR FIDUCIALS to open the selection dialog.

1. In Select Designators & Fiducials, verify Flattened panel. This mode treats multiple boards as one unit sharing a pair of Fiducials, as described on the screen.

Check that Flattened panel is selected in Select Designators & Fiducials.

Select Fiducials and components

1. In Designator to plan, retain the components required for simulation/processing. Deselect items that are not needed.

Keep the required components in Designator to plan; unneeded items can be deselected.

Pending confirmation: the selectable list and 4/4 state are visible, but this segment does not show a result after deselecting a component.

1. With only one Fiducial selected, check the red rule message and disabled APPLY. Flattened panel requires exactly two Fiducials.

Selecting only one Fiducial displays a red rule message and disables APPLY.

1. Reselect FID2 to return Fiducial Set to Selected 2/2. Check that APPLY becomes available.

Reselect FID2 to restore Selected 2/2.

Apply the settings

1. Check that the Fiducial and component selections satisfy the rules, then left-click APPLY.

Click APPLY to apply the current Fiducial and component selections.

Pending confirmation: APPLY is clicked 8.760 seconds before the fixed-offset estimate. The click and dialog closure are visible, but no separate success message establishes persistent saving.

10. Path planning, simulation and recipe export

This chapter covers process planning, simulation, collision location and export. Unverified edit effects and export results remain identified as gaps.

10.1 Algorithm settings and PATH PLANNING

Process and path planning

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

In Flow Editor, select the planning mode, review algorithm parameters, run Path Planning, and inspect or adjust the resulting feeding, picking and processing sequence.

Items requiring confirmation

• Misrecognized subtitle names are corrected to the visible Standard and PATH PLANNING labels.
• The cursor is positioned on PATH PLANNING around 00:10:16.900, approximately 16.113 seconds before the narrated instruction. No identifiable red or blue expanding click ring is visible, so the mouse-button action cannot be determined visually.
• Tool Slot, Pick Seq. and Insert Seq. also appear before their narration. The fields and lists are visible, but no expanding rings establish the double-click action.

Select the planning mode and parameters

1. Select Standard planning mode.
2. In the mode list below Flow Editor, verify Standard. Deep Search is also visible but is not selected in this example.

Select Standard below Flow Editor.

Pending confirmation: Standard is visibly selected, but the selection precedes the narration and no clear click ring is shown.

1. Review the algorithm settings and retain the defaults.
2. Click the gear beside the mode list to open Algorithm Settings. Review the switches and Time Constrain value used in this example; retain the default settings.

Open Algorithm Settings using the gear and review the example's default parameters.

Run Path Planning

1. Start path planning.
2. Click PATH PLANNING to generate the processing flow and paths.

Click PATH PLANNING to generate the process flow and tool paths.

Pending confirmation: the visible start action precedes the narration by approximately 16.113 seconds, without identifiable red/blue click rings. The nearest button-position frame is used.

1. Wait for planning to finish.
2. Wait until progress in Path planning is complete. Do not advance to the next stage while it is running.

Path planning shows that planning is running.

Inspect and adjust the planning result

1. Check the generated Round, components and sequence list.
2. After planning, verify Round 1 and its components. Check Feeder Slot, Tool Slot, Pick Seq., Insert Seq. and PCB No. in the table.

Round 1 shows components, feeder slots, tool slots and sequence fields.

1. Adjust the picking tool if needed.
2. Select the component to customize, open Tool Slot and choose the required tool slot.

Use Tool Slot to change the selected component's picking tool.

Pending confirmation: the list opens approximately 11.093 seconds before narration. Its options are visible, but no click ring establishes a double click.

1. Adjust picking and processing order if needed.
2. Following the narration, double-click the Pick Seq. or Insert Seq. list field to change the picking or processing order. Recheck all row sequences afterward.

Use Pick Seq. and Insert Seq. to adjust picking and processing order.

Pending confirmation: the screen precedes narration by approximately 11.853 seconds and does not show a recognizable double-click ring. The required single-click or double-click gesture still needs product-specification confirmation.

Completion checks

10.2 Edit the configuration and replan

The visible Tool, Pick and Insert sequence checks and edits remain in the Inspect and adjust the planning result subsection of 10.01. [1]

Pending results: which changes require PATH PLANNING again, how changes are applied, and before/after sequence differences are not fully established. An editable field does not prove that an edit has taken effect.

10.3 Simulation, CT and collision location

See the specified-configuration, partial-constraint and whole-panel examples for their simulation workflows. The 31.800, 12.840 and 24.672 second results come from different examples and are not a controlled performance comparison. [1] [2] [3]

Pending result: collision location is covered, but a complete successful rerun after correction is still missing.

Offline simulation and collision checks

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

Use Run Simulation for collision checks and offline simulation, inspect collision locations, motion and cycle time, then reset the simulation.

Pending confirmations and scope decisions

• Run Simulation is already open at the start of the segment. Although the narration requests it, the opening click is not captured. Step 1 establishes only the visible panel state.
• After START, Pre-flight Check reports one collision step and offers Proceed/Cancel. The subtitles give no instruction for either button, so no unsupported confirmation step is added.
• The preloaded-gripper workaround around 00:12:48–00:13:20 is excluded by the session specification and is not included in the steps or screenshots.
• Export D30 recipe around 00:14:48 belongs to the adjacent export procedure and is excluded from this unit.

Open Run Simulation and inspect the preview

1. After checking path planning, click Run Simulation to enter simulation.

Run Simulation is open; the source does not capture the opening click.

Pending confirmation: the first available frame is already inside Run Simulation and does not directly show its opening button being clicked.

1. Inspect the components and machine configuration in 3D, and review Cycle Time, the flow list and controls in Run Simulation.

Inspect components, Cycle Time and controls in the 3D view and Run Simulation panel.

Run Collision Check and locate interference

1. Left-click CHECK COLLISION and wait for completion.

Click CHECK COLLISION to start collision checking.

1. Select the Move node to inspect in the collision results. The visible example is Move6[Target], with status Target Interference.

Select Move6[Target] to locate Target Interference.

1. Inspect the collision location in 3D. Colliding components appear red to identify the interference region.

The 3D view highlights colliding components in red.

Start simulation and inspect motion and cycle time

1. Left-click START at the lower left to start offline simulation.

Click START to start offline simulation.

Pending confirmation: the click precedes the aligned narration by approximately 11.043 seconds. The subsequent Pre-flight Check has no narrated button instruction; this guide does not infer Proceed or Cancel.

1. During simulation, observe feeding and machine motion in 3D and monitor Cycle Time. Detected interference is marked by a red collision warning.

Monitor Cycle Time during simulation; collision locations show red warnings.

1. When simulation stops, inspect overall motion and final Cycle Time, then assess acceptability against project requirements. The recorded final time is 00:00:08.896.

After simulation stops, Cycle Time shows 00:00:08.896.

Reset the simulation

1. After inspection, left-click RESET. Check that Cycle Time returns to 00:00:00.000 and START reappears at the lower left.

Click RESET.

After RESET, Cycle Time returns to 00:00:00.000 and START reappears.

Pending confirmation: RESET precedes the aligned narration by approximately 18.453 seconds; later frames establish the reset state. The export window from 00:14:48 is outside this unit.

10.4 RESET and EXPORT DB

Completion boundary: the evidence supports opening the export dialog, selecting Destination and clicking Export. Dialog closure does not verify an output file. The actual file, path and successful result remain pending. Physical-machine loading is outside this edition's scope.

See Reset the simulation in 10.03 for RESET. [1]

EXPORT DB: choose a path and run export

Existing procedure draft. Its unresolved items remain visible. Read this as an independent example; do not combine its outcome with another example.

After offline simulation, open the D30 recipe export dialog, check the coordinate origin, choose the .db destination and run export. This procedure ends at clicking Export.

Items requiring confirmation

• Version limitation: the specification names offline DIATwin Machine Pilot v1.6.0-beta, but the title bar shows 1.6.0 without beta. Whether this is the same delivery version remains unconfirmed.
• Recipe naming: the specification proposes using the Recipe Project name by default. The project/export dialog shows DefaultProject, but the save dialog selects an existing TEST.db. The default naming rule is not established.
• Unspecified overwrite branch: the recording displays a prompt that TEST.db already exists and asks whether to replace it. The narration does not describe this action and failure/recovery is marked not applicable. This branch is not a numbered instruction; its formal documentation remains to be decided.
• Completion evidence is insufficient: Export closes the dialog, but no success message, output-file list or other verifiable result appears. Export to the requested location is not established.

Open and inspect Export D30 recipe

1. When Run Simulation shows START, click EXPORT DB.

Click EXPORT DB; the red expanding ring indicates a left click.

1. In Export D30 recipe — DefaultProject, check the origin and retain From corner mountpoint.

Retain the default From corner mountpoint in Export D30 recipe — DefaultProject.

Choose a destination and run Export

1. Under Destination, click Browse... and select the save location in Save AMBUDB As.

Choose the save location in Save AMBUDB As. The recording uses TEST.db on the desktop.

Pending confirmation: the narration requests a path without specifying a filename. TEST.db does not demonstrate the proposed default naming rule.

1. Check that Destination shows the target .db path, then click Export.

Check Destination and click Export; the red ring indicates a left click.

Pending confirmation: only the Export click and subsequent dialog closure are established. No visible success message or output-file verification proves successful export.

11. Troubleshooting and result checks

Use this chapter to find existing procedures and checks for a symptom. Items without a verified solution are explicitly identified.

11.1 Missing assets, empty lists and missing selections

11.2 Import, dimensions, direction and preview issues

11.3 Configuration, planning, collision and export issues

11.4 Deletion, recovery and support

See 6.02 for layer/feature deletion, 7.04 for Delete Board/Remove Link and 4.03 for asset Delete Selected. These commands act on different objects with different known limits; they are not interchangeable. [1] [2] [3]

Pending recovery: Undo and data-recovery guarantees are unconfirmed. No unverified recovery steps are provided.

See 3.01 for Console and 12.03 for About. Official log locations, retrieval methods and support channels remain unconfirmed. [1] [2]

12. Fields, data formats and reference appendix

This chapter indexes fields, data formats, versions and help entry points.

12.1 Terminology and field references

Use these links to find fields. Definitions, example values and limitations remain in the corresponding complete procedures.

Pending reference: complete defaults, valid ranges and validation rules are not yet approved specifications for every field. Deep Search is only established as a visible option; unverified parameter effects are not described.

12.2 Import/export formats and examples

These are formats and examples mentioned by the sources, not a complete verified list of supported formats.

12.3 Tasks, functions, versions and help entry points

About and version discrepancy.

Select About to inspect About DIATwin. The dialog shows Application Version 1.7.0 and plugin versions 0.1.0 for Insertion Annotation, D30 Recipe, and Electronic Component. The main title bar displays 1.6.0; retain this discrepancy for confirmation.

Manual and User Manual entry.

Use Manual to locate User Manual. The narration describes online Help, but the recording remains in the application and does not show Help content or successful loading.

See 1.03 for task entry points and chapter 11 for the issue index. Recorded About and Manual content follows; actual Help loading has not been verified. [1] [2]

Edition changes: the project-wide evidence outline is expanded into a 12-chapter draft, incorporating nine reviewed examples, 63 basic-operation nodes, 18 common-operation descriptions and related legacy procedures. Source, version and gap traceability is retained separately in the editorial records.
