Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

i have change the data bit to 7 and it work, just a quick question it normal that the Com Open keep flashing

Changing the data bit to 7 worked for me. Just a heads up, the "Com Open" in the bottom left hand will flash green when it's connected to your PC.

Never mind im dumb

How do i change language in the PSOFT software?

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

The Psof software was created to obtain that the real temperatures are as close as possible to the solder profile when using a machine with both top heaters with ceramic IR technology. In other cases it is not so necessary
This is a profile I use to solder medium bga as hm170, etc with an IR-pro modified.

i have your profile and i have one probleme i dont now whi not finish the profile how i have 2xx finish and is not the finish of curve ... i dont understand this i go make one photo if any here

Thankksssss

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Could someone please clarify the modifications needed for Achi ir 6500? The temp keeps overshooting, presumably because I only have one thermometer

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Can someone please tell me the password?

Ah nevermind. I see it is in the serial text file

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

My AHCI PRO SC has originally wired REX SSR via Altec. But whatever setting I use OUT2 on Altec is always on when program is running. What can be the cause?

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Yes but the "original" software don't turn the controler on if the value is 0.00 ...

It recognizes it like STEP to alow the bottom heater to preheat the MBO ...

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Generally speaking ramp up or ramp down have to have some type of value to work correctly
Generally speaking ramp up or ramp down also have a minimum to a maximum limitation of some sort

In most controllers you have to set up these parameters for them to work correctly

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Finaly made it to work OK ...

The R1 - ramp 1 should not be 0.00 then the error appears ...

Put it to 0.5, then should all be OK

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

Well I have upgraded my IR6500 wit 3x150W bottom heater ...

I have put the under temp measure probe 1 cm beneath the board (in the air), another sugestion I found on net (say like a modification) ...

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

To update settings ...

On your machine you have to set the com options :
Addr - 0.1
bAud - 19.2
ALo2 - HiAL

Then on your computer set com port which is not used from 1-9 and :

Baud - 19200
Databit - 7
Parity - even
Stopbit - 1

Then the prog should find the machine and all should work OK

The com port also set in psoft like on computer, all other should be set :

Baud - 19200
Databit - 7
Parity - even
Stopbit - 1

Thank you, had done all these but did not work and I do not have this option in the settings "ALo2 - HiAL". Regardless mine is working as I described above.

Re: New Software Achi LY by PSOFT

HI,

Does some have a good profile for PS3 reflowing ???

And of course the willing of share ....

Trying to get the reflow, but the tems I put are to low or to high :-(

Have an ACHI IR6500

How high are your upper IR from chip ??? 1 cm,2 cm ?????

Information on forums seems to indicate the IR6500 is not cut out to do Ps3 because the bottom heater is not powerful enough. Most of them seem to recommend minimum 2000W heater at the bottom and the upper minimum 400W. I have a jovy-7500 it really struggled with old backwards Compatible PS3. On the other hand others reported success with it on forums. This is why I bought the Achi ir pro sc, which is in my view better than the Jovy-7500 in terms of doing big boards.

What I am about to describe re BGA rework machine is well documented and known cliché. The problem with BGA rework stations, seem always dependant on the environments and many variables involved. You have to know, adapt and take measures to tackle the variables.

If I may with this analogy. I have a bread toaster, which I toast 2 slices of bread every morning, on the same settings set at number 3 but I do not get the same result daily as there is always a little to significant variation. Some days browner than others, on other days too brown or burnt in corners. The environment and ambient temperature at the time of toasting play a big part in the result. The variables are, the moisture in the bread and atmosphere of the room, the thickness of the slice, type of bread, the way the bread was stored, the age of the bread, fresh or getting near to stale. Your handling of the slices may introduce fat and moisture from your hands. The quality of the toasters, technology, design and wattage are indicative too. All these put together will have an effect and can affect the results.

In BGA rework the effect and affect would be the same too. You would have to know your machine and consider all variables to get results on a consistent basis. It is accumulated experience in using the old Achi ir pro time which with time I have improved my technique. I have had good results and failures too. Practice and practice is the key word.

From the beginning I have followed and made adjustment from the examples given in the the Achi IR pro Sc manual re leaded and unleaded solder used on board and manual is on line to download. Please search for it on google. The 2cm recommended for the upper heater will depend on how quick the chip gets hot and the temperature. Sometimes you have to raise to prevent pop corning or chip damage. The rate per second the temperature is rising, ramp rate and the dwelling time is very important too. There is a lot of information on this out there and I am not an expert.

I found quite a decent Ps3 profile for my machine on psx place forum by a member goes by the name of Shawn Shakir and helped by Victor Muir . Please note I have had to adjust it to the environment and setup I am working in when using his profile. Others Profiles are helpful but you need to tinker with them for your needs.

The profile is public and use at your own risk.
Bottom heater:
Set at 280c and keep it at that until top temp reaches 160c, then lower to 270c at 180c, 260c at 190c, 250c at 200c, 240c at 210c, usually just leave it there.

Top heater:
R1: step
L1 0 d1 360 r2 1.00
L2 190 d2 30 r3 1.00
L3 200 d3 25 r4 1.00
L4 210 d4 25 r5 1.00
L5 220 d5 25 r6 1.00
L6 230 d6 25 r7 end
hb 230.
