Minor Parameter Limits
To set the minor parameter limit (Q, D or R) select bin 8; do this by using the Bin No. key until
is shown, then enter 8.
BinX
To enter the limit press Nominal; the minor parameter indicator (Q, D or R) will show in the
right–hand side of the display and the limit value should then be entered from the keyboard.
Press Enter to confirm the limit.
Parts that fail the minor parameter limit of bin 8 will fall into bin 8 regardless of whether the major
parameter passes the bin 0 limits. Use of bin 8 is optional; it is not necessary to set a limit and if
the limit is left 'closed' (the default state, indicated by dashes) bin 8 will be ignored.
Fail Bin
Parts that do not fall into bin 0 or bin 8 are assigned to bin 9, the general fail bin.
Using Sort
Having set up bin 0, press Bin No. until
the set–up mode.
Press Sort to turn on the sort facility. Parts that pass the major parameter percentage limits will
be indicated by
will be indicated by
by FAIL bin9.
Storing Sort Set–ups
To store a Sort set–up press the Store key; the display shows
followed by Enter; after a few seconds the right–hand display shows
set–up has been stored. The binning nominal and limits are stored, together with the Function,
Frequency, Mode, etc. used for the Sort set–up.
To recall a Sort set–up press Recall, the store number (1 to 9), and Enter. The display shows
rcl donE
Note that memory 0 contains the factory default settings; these can be loaded by pressing,
Recall, 0, Enter. Memory 0 cannot be overwritten by pressing Store, 0, Enter and cannot
therefore be used to store binning information.
Multiple Bin Sorting
The LCR400 supports two different schemes for multiple bin sorting, overlap and sequential.
Overlapping (or nested) bins have one nominal value and progressively larger symmetrical
limits. Sequential bins can also have one nominal value but asymmetric limits (e.g. –5% to –2%,
–2% to +2%, +2% to 5%) or can have different nominal values, each with their own percentage
limits.
As with simple pass/fail sorting, bin 8 is the failure bin for the appropriate minor parameter and
bin 9 is the general fail bin.
Multiple bin sort schemes can be quite complicated; it is therefore a good idea to write down the
binning set–up before programming is started and to save the set–up once programming is
complete.
bin8
PASS bin0 in the display; parts that fail the minor term limits of bin 8 (if set)
