7.0.3 Release Notes
Updates Corrected device placement orientation when automatically removing devices from sockets after sites are taught in sequence. This only occurred when teaching with the options “Full Teach Primary / Fast Teach...
BPWin 8.0.2 Release Notes
BPWin Release Highlights
- Added a laser power/speed ratio limitation feature for laser markers using Prolase software. BPWin will determine whether the operator entered power/speed settings are within the “polygon accepted” values, preventing unacceptable settings.
- 3000 series fiber laser users can mark serialized QR codes for traceability at the component level.
- Added support for the legacy UX46 3D Inspection camera on the 3000 Series APS.
Other Updates
- Fixed a semaphore timeout issue during broadcast operation for 9th and 10th Gen programming technology.
- Fixed a Runtime error for some 6th and 7th Gen sites related to autorange.
BPWin 8.0.1 Release Notes
(Scheduled for 02/13/2024 release)
BPWin Highlights
- Improved 10th gen programmer site diagnostics to make the process faster and more efficient.
- Released a 3000 series Laser Calibration pattern for laser focus adjustments. This feature supports a well defined process for both CO2 and Fiber models. Contact BPM Customer Service for more information.
Other Improvements
- Fixed continuity failures with “Gang-4 and Gang-8” socket modules on 10th gen Programmers in manual mode.
- Fixed “BP Mechanical Benchmark” failure on 8th Gen systems.
- Fixed a missing FX8 DPL variable causing Macro error during Short Circuit Test on 9th Gen.
BPWin 8.0.0 Release Notes
BPWin Highlights
- Restore COR_X and COR_Y registry values to default every time before PNP initializes, to prevent the values from affecting the home Z process. This feature eliminates the need to manually delete registry values.
- Added a registry key value pair to give users an option to default “Verify teach by picking in diagonal location” to “No.” This changes the default value to streamline the teaching process for JEDEC trays.
- Integrate 10th Gen support into standard BPWin release cycle.
- Enabled “V4-45” 3D Inspection hardware feature on BPM310 and 3928.
Other Improvements
- Fixed a bug to allow REJECTS as a valid location for use during the Test Lase session. Previously the Test Lase session failed to end as expected.
- Fixed a bug to allow the socket identifier specifier to be used in the Test Lase process.
- Fixed a runtime error for NAND devices, caused by autorange implementation.
- Fixed a Job Integrity Check (JIC) error preventing jobs from running when using autorange and serialization together.
