Setting Pick Position

Now that you've loaded a component into the feeder, we'll fine-tune the feeder's position in OpenPnP and test picking a component.

Mount your prepared feeder(s) to your LumenPnP.
Re-home your LumenPnP if necessary to make sure its position is accurate.
In the Feeders tab, select your feeder from the list.
Press Find to update which slot its installed in.
Position the camera over the the feeder's location.
Press The "Feed" button to make sure the feeder is working, and the tape is indexed properly.
Use the camera view to precisely target the center of the slot for one of the components.
Press the "Capture Camera Location" to save the camera's position to the Part Offset settings.
Confirm that the Slot Location's Z-axis position is around 14mm. We don't want the nozzle tip to crash into the feeder while fine-tuning it, so a higher number is better to start.
Select the correct toolhead you'll be using to pick this component from the Machine Controls dropdown.
Position your tool over the Part Offset location. Your nozzle tip should be hovering above the component. If the nozzle is not aligned correctly, you should adjust your nozzle offset.
Use the Jog controls to lower the nozzle tip until it is just touching the component in the slot.
Save the z-axis height with the "Capture Tool Location" button.
Click Apply to save the settings.
Jog your machine away from the feeder.
Use the "Pick" button to test picking the component. If it isn't picked appropriately you may need to tune the Part Offset, especially the Z-axis.
Simply turn off the vacuum in Actuators > H1:VAC1 > Off to recycle your component.
Repeat this tuning with each of your feeders, and then you'll be ready to start a job!
