trying to PCB Calibrate #19

Trying to set the PCB Calibration I sometimes got this error. I got it when I was trying to choose the center of the 2 points specified.

If I chose to calibrate again and chose a little different points from the center of the component specified , charm accepted the coordinates.

If I don't try to move the head to the points specified and just click "set" for both points charm would accept the calibration.

I have no helpful informatiob for your problem yet because I got the mashine yesterday. But do you know haw i get in to the settings to correct x & y position? I'm 1,25mm out at the y axis. If I change compensation data it have no effect.

If I understand correctly, my suggestion is: Mark bottom-left edge as "origin" in your PCB with your development software first. Than create pick&place output and re-upload into charmhigh.

I had the same issue, the problem was that the machine can't understand negative positions so you need to set the board origen to the lower left corner
