Advanced Operation

5.9.2 BINNING MODE – Sort

Before sorting components into their respective bins, the bin limits should be set up as described in section 5.9.1—BINNING MODE – Set. When the limits are correctly set up and the screen is displaying the desired limits mode, i.e. absolute limits (Abs) or percentage limits

(%), the BIN SORT soft key can be selected from the BINNING MODE – Set display.

BINNING MODE – Sort can be performed in Repetitive mode, Single shot mode or under

GPIB control; if performed in Single shot mode the Count total will be updated in the background (see section 5.9.3). As each component is inserted into the fixture and the measurement made, the bin designation for the measured component is displayed together with the measured value(s). The component may now be placed into the appropriate bin and the next component placed in the fixture ready for sorting.
