ピックアンドプレース設定

The Pick and Place Setup dialog

Summary

This dialog provides control to select pick and place options before generating the output.

Access

The Pick and Place Setup dialog can be accessed in the following ways:

• Click File » Assembly Outputs » Generates pick and place files from a PCB.
• Double-click Generates pick and place files under Assembly Outputs in the Outputs region of an OutJob (*.OutJob). 

Options/Controls

• All Columns - a list of parameters from which you can choose to be included in the output file. Enable the Show column of the parameters you want to include in the output. The location information is expressed in three ways, corresponding to the three methods by which a component footprint's reference point can be specified in the source PCB library:
  • Center X, Center Y - coordinates for the component's center point
  • Ref X, Ref Y - coordinates for the component's user-defined reference point
  • Pad X, Pad Y - coordinates for Pad 1 of the component.
• Grid region - this region is a preview of the information that will be included in the output file.
• Output Settings
  • Units - use this region to specify whether to use Imperial or Metric units of measurement for the component location coordinates.
  • Show Units - enable to show the units.
  • Separator - select the desired unit separator from the drop-down.
• Formats - select in which format (CSV and/or Text) you want to generate output.
• Exclude Filter Parameters - enable to exclude parameters being used for filtering (refer to the Tips section below for more information).
• Include Variation Component - enable to include variants.

Filtering

When filtering has been applied, the Pick and Place Setup dialog appears as shown above. Additional controls in this variation include:

•  - click to delete the filtering displayed to the right. Use the checkbox to the right to enable/disable the filtering rather than deleting it fully.
• Down arrow - click to access a list of previous filtering. Choose the desired filtering to filter the current grid.
• Customize - click to open the Filter builder dialog to create more sophisticated and complex filters.

Tips

• To exclude specific parts from the report, such as fiducials, the dialog provides the ability to apply custom filtering. To apply filtering, click the filter icon ( ) in a column header. Notice that the subsequent menu lists all individual row entries for quick selective filtering. Click the (Custom…) entry to access the Custom Filter dialog. Use the dialog to specify which rows of data to show in the BOM based on the filtering criteria defined for that column. Once applied, the filter icon turns blue ( ) to indicate custom filtering is in force for that column. Apply custom filtering to other columns of data as required – the full filter currently applied is reflected at the bottom-left of the data region. Columns being used for filtering can also be excluded from the generated pick and place files by enabling the Exclude Filter Parameters option.
