REFLOW TRACKER Surveyor 47
WARNING
It is essential to use the correct Datapaq thermal barrier for your individual process;
see p. 11. Ensure that all dimensions of your logger/barrier/frame assembly are
such that it will fit comfortably within the oven through all stages of the process.
Failure to do this can cause the assembly to jam in the oven with consequent
overheating and potentially-severe damage to the equipment. Resultant battery-
leakage, and the act of recovering the equipment, may cause skin burns and
respiratory irritation.
REMEMBER TO. . .
Ensure that the carrier is always adjusted correctly, with the two side rails set at the
correct width for the oven’s conveyor and parallel with each other.
Always allow adequate cooling time for the carrier, thermal barrier and sensors
before further profile runs.
Always ensure that the sensors are plugged into the same thermocouple channels
for every profile run and that they are the same as those used for the baseline
survey. Failure to do this will invalidate the results.
Ensure when conducting profile runs that the oven settings are the same as those
for the baseline survey. Failure to do so may result in false alarms. This applies not
only to line speed and temperature settings, but also (in ovens where it can be
changed) to the convection level.
OPERATOR AND TECHNICIAN MODES
Reflow Tracker Professional is run in one of two different modes – Operator or Technician
– selected at startup.
Operator Mode
A simple step-by-step Operator Wizard guides the oven operator through a basic profile
run, assessing the oven’s performance against a pre-existing baseline survey. No other aspects
of the Insight software are visible to the Operator. The technician can control access to the
Operator Mode, and set options for the Operator Wizard to simplify its use for the operator.
Technician Mode
This mode is used to create a baseline survey for an oven. It also gives access to the full
functionality of Insight, including:
• Extensive data analysis options.
• Process-parameter adjustment.
• Use of telemetry.
You may password-protect use of Technician Mode: on Insight’s main menu, select
Tools > Options > Surveyor Technician Mode.
To change between Operator and Technician modes, Insight must be closed and restarted.
Alternatively, run Insight a second time and open another mode to have Operator Mode and
Technician Mode running simultaneously.
