Keysight i3070 Inline PLC Software Version 1.46 Release Note

Dear Customer,

Keysight Technologies is pleased to introduce the i3070 Inline PLC software version 1.46 (PLC 1.46) for our
existing i3070 Series 5i Inline in-circuit testers. No pre-requisite is required to install this release.

What’s new in PLC 1.46 release?

1. Memory storage for 50 recipe profiles based on unique fixture ID

2. Ability to load/unload fixture in one single step.

3. Display of fixture ID at Production mode

4. Read Press positions and error codes from computer

While the PLC 1.46 release improves the stability of the PLC software, the key enhancement is in fixture
management. With the memory storage for 50 recipe profiles, you can now calibrate each individual fixture
with the i3070 Inline system. The calibration data can then be stored based on the fixture ID for fast recall
in future use, reducing setup time during product change. Fixture setup time is further reduced with the
new one touch “Change Jig” command.

In addition, the test engineer no longer needs to navigate the touch panel in search of fixture ID and Press
parameters. The fixture ID is now displayed at Production mode and all the Press parameters such as
Standby position and error codes can be read from the PC. The engineer can also log these parameters and
error codes into a log file for reference purpose.

The PLC 1.46 release will be the last software version supporting standard fixture profile namely; 75 mm,
85 mm and 100 mm. With the above enhancement, these 3 standard fixture profiles have become
redundant and will be removed from future PLC software releases (effective from version 2.00).

Other enhancements are listed in the Appendix.

Appendix:

1. 50 recipe profiles for unique fixture ID and Press height

This feature is also known as Recipe control, in short. There are a total of 50 memory profiles and each
memory profile can store a unique fixture ID along with its Press height positions. To use this, set Recipe
Control to ON at Setting 4.

To calibrate the Press height profile, goto Maintenance -> Calibration

Select Current Model

Model No: Series numbering from 01 – 50
Model Name: Project or Product name
Jig ID: Top fixture ID or Autofile
Standby Pos: Position of the Press when idling, to allow board

transfer between zones
Board Align Pos: Position of the Press when verifying if the
board is seated properly on the tooling pin and support plate.
All Probe Pos: Position of the Press where board is in contact
with all probes for analog and digtal in-circuit testing.
Long Probe Pos: Position of the Press where board is in
contact with the long probes only.
