CV-5210 Connection Validation

WARNING
With power applied, the tip temperature can be > 300°C. Failure to observe the following precautions may lead to injury to users or damage the equipment: Do not touch any metallic parts of the cartridge. Always use cartridge removal pad and turn off system when changing cartridges. Do not use near flammable items. Do not use unit for any function other than described in this manual. Use only genuine Metcal replacement parts. Use in a wellventilated area or with fume extraction. Do not use the equipment with wet hands. Connect only to properly grounded outlets to prevent risk of electric shock. Always place hand-piece back into the work stand to prevent accidental burning of oneself or surrounding objects. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including  children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

SETUP

CONNECTION VALIDATION OPERATION

• Pick a tip that maximizes contact area between the solder joint and tip. Maximizing contact area gives the most efficient heat transfer, producing high quality solder joints quickly.
• Pick a tip that allows good access to the solder joint. Shorter tip lengths allow quicker response. Longer or angled tips may be needed for soldering densely populated boards.
• Pick the lowest temperature cartridge that will accomplish the task. This minimizes the potential for thermal damage.

Enable CV through the Setup Screen The system may flash the green and red lights and an optional beep may sound when the tip is cleaned or in the work stand. This is normal and does not signal the start of a solder event.

1. Remove the hand-piece from the work stand. Clean your tip using a sulfur-free sponge & de-ionized water or Metcal’s brass pad.
2. Place the tip in contact with the land and lead to be soldered. This starts the heat flowing to the connection area. It may be necessary to apply a small amount of solder to start the transfer.
3. The system will signal the start of the solder event with a quick flash of the green and red LEDs.      If the system does not signal the start of the solder event, your tip selection is too large for the load or thermal contact with the load to be soldered is insufficient. This may be prevalent with small, fine tip geometries with minimal surface area.
4. The thermal bridge is formed by touching the solder to the same junction, then moving the solder wire to the opposite side of the land. This causes the liquid solder to move toward the heat source to complete the solder joint.
5. Wait for the CV system to signal the end of the solder event.
6. Promptly remove the soldering tip from the solder joint

 Wait for the LED light to extinguish before starting the next solder joint.

• An immediate red light after solder event detection indicates the tip is improperly sized to the joint.
• A red light after approximately 8 seconds indicates too small of a tip or too low of a temperature was selected.

g. Press the LOCK button to enable tip lockout mode
h. Exit tip restricted list screen; Exit setup mode
IMPORTANT: Tip list changes will NOT save unless exiting to FUNCTION SCREENTIP RESTRICTED LIST; 12x fields for 12x tip p/n
Press [+] to add tip p/n in handle to ‘approved’ list
Press lock button to ‘lock’ to enable tip lockout mode
To REMOVE CV tip part number from restricted tip list:
i. Press setup button to enter SETUP MODE and enter 4 digit ADMIN PASSWORD using the [-][+] buttons. Press TIP RESTRICTED LIST button (tip icon)
j. Press up or down buttons to select tip part number to REMOVE from list
k. Selected tip part number will be in GREEN COLOR
l. Press the [ – ] button to REMOVE selected CV tip part number from list

STEP 3: ENABLE OPERATOR PASSWORD MODE (allows for 3x Operator passwords)
a. Press setup button to enter SETUP MODE and enter 4 digit ADMIN PASSWORD using the [-][+] buttons
b. Press Operator Password button to enter Operator Password screen
c. Use bottom operator # button to select between Operator # 1, 2, 3
d. Enter 4-digit numerical OPERATOR PASSWORD using the [-][+] buttons
e. Exit tip restricted list screen; Exit setup mode
f. Turn unit OFF STEP 4: OPERATION WITH RESTRICTED TIP LIST/TIP LOCKOUT ENABLED
a. Turn CV-PS5200 power supply ON
b. 4-digit OPERATOR PASSWORD SCREEN should appear
c. enter 4 digit OPERATOR PASSWORD using the [-][+] buttons
d. Enter SOLDER FUNCTION screen;
The ‘STAR(S)’ symbols on top of [+] dual port button on screen indicate Operator # (corresponding to operator password used)
(1x ‘star’ = Operator 1; 2x ‘stars’ = Operator # 2; 3x stars = Operator # 3)
CV TIP ON ‘APPROVED’/RESTRICTED TIP LIST:
If CV tip inserted into handle is on the ‘approved’/restricted tip list, there will be operator solder function for single port mode LEFT and RIGHT and DUAL port mode selection.
CV TIP NOT ON ‘APPROVED’/RESTRICTED TIP LIST = TIP LOCKOUT
If CV tip inserted into handle is NOT on the ‘approved’/restricted tip list, there will be ERROR MSG for ‘TIP LOCKOUT’ stating ‘TIP NOT ALLOWED’
System will CHECK CV tip ID for ‘approved’ tip part number on SYSTEM START-UP, PORT CHANGE, and PORT RESET (tip inserted into ‘open’ hand-piece)

of ‘stars’ indicates Operator # For example, 1x star * = Operator # 1

CV TIP NOT on approved/restricted tip list will generate ERROR MSG ‘TIP NOT ALLOWED’ and show list of approved tips on the restricted list. In this example, CVC-7CH0025S and CVC-8CH0024S are the only 2x tips that are ‘approved’ to work with the CV System

FIRMWARE UPGRADE

Download AN1388 Source Code and CV5200rX.XX.XX hex or CV500rX.XX.XX hex from www.metcal.com/resources/CV_comm
1st time users download & unzip FIRMWARE- AN1388-Source-Code-2014-02-14.zip. Install the software.Verify COM port of the FT232R USB/ UART in the Windows Device Manager. he PIC32 Bootloader will only recognize COM ports 1-9. If needed, change the assigned COM port to a Port within range.   Updating the firmware from v1.41 or earlier will require a system reset. Contact Metcal technical support at [email protected] for system reset instructions
