Specifications

As an alternative to logging data into Excel, SCANSPECTION AOI can also
log the information into an ASCII text file. Saving data into a text file is much
speedier compared to saving data into Excel. To start logging data into a text
file, select text file as the data destination, then specify a directory where the
data files are to be stored.
There are current two formats of ASCII logging. Users may change the format
by editing the ScanSpection.INI file.
[Excel_Intf]
..
DataFormat=0
..
For DataFormat=0, up to three text files may be created per board setup in
the directory specified:
x.Dat - Inspection result tracking data
x.Sco - Shape score tracking data
x.Pos -Position tracking data
For example if the board setup name is
Board101.Board Setup, then the three
files are:
Board101.Dat
Board101.Sco
Board101.Pos
For DataFormat=1, only one file (AOIData.Dat) would be created for all the
board setups in the directory specified. All the inspection data are logged into
this one file in an incremental manner.
ODBC (Open Database Connectivity)
ODBC allows inspection data to save via ODBC (DSN=CR_AOI_DB) to any
ODBC compliant database. The recommended database is MS Access which
is included in the AOI inspection software package. Tracking inspection data
via ODBC allows third party SPC software packages to monitor inspection
status. YesTek’ rework station software also utilises the ODBC data source for
PCB’s inspection data.
Rework Station Image Setup
Setup to generate defect image and template images for the Rework Data
Server (RDS) software.
