If you know it all...

Then you wont be able to open yourself for suggestions.  And when you are alwiz rite, you wont get much advise nor will you get much discussions. Because there is no point to discuss with you when at the end, you got your point and your point is alwiz marvellous...

Yeah, i am trying to remind myself not to become like this uncle that i am working with. Today,  when at the customer place... we are trying to install one machine and it needs communication to get the board in and out of it.

After awhile, he said to me that it is pointless to put the Loader infront of Oven. Well, agreed. Because by adding a Loader to load PCB with components mounted on it can cause these little components to move from it pads. Told the customer, but the customer insist on using it, so, we must think of a solution lo.  So, found the solution.

But another problem need to be settled before we can proceed. This uncle said the Oven is alwiz in request board state. So eventually the loader will continue to load board faster than the Oven can receive and this can cause these PCBs to bump with the one which is entering the Oven.

Hmm... complicated leh. Yeah, it is... so in order to counter this problem, set a timer for the Oven request  interval lo... easy ma. But this uncle, said, NO NO NO... this Oven dont have request interval one. But i said, well, lets see if we can find the function or not. And there he goes, saying "You search la, i have been working with this Oven for 2 years and i never see this function. I said dont have one la"

Ok, feel challenged. I was determined to search for this Request Interval, which i think most of the Oven should have and its kinda standard. Wondering why he said there is none in this one. So, after awhile, while searching for it, he came by and said, Dont simply save the parameter files, later the Oven come out with crazy errors. Hmm... if you dont try, you dont know ma. So, after for few minutes, found that Request Interval Timer. Asked him to see, this uncle try to cover line la. This one cannot use one. I was like... Oh ok... i found it, do you wanna try?

Tried this function but it doesn't work. Hmm... maybe he was rite. But no no no, i wont give up like that... And i dont think that the engineer who designed this Oven with this function in it for fun and doesnt serve any purpose. It might be some other settings that i have not activate. So, at the end, this uncle said, "See, I told you so"... knn... wait la, wait till i find that option and give it back straight to your face.

Eventually, after so much trouble with the Loader and Oven, the customer decided not to installed it first. But i got a mission, i am looking for this Oven's Manual and study it myself. Request Interval Timer is very, very "the" standard... I should be able to find it... soon!

See, i am open for discussion, and i accepted his views and i tried. But this uncle, even when i found that function, still insist that he is rite. Maybe like he said, I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THIS OVEN FOR 2 YEARS!!!! Maybe he thinks that "Hey, young gun, dont mess around with me, i have more experienced, when i say dont have, means dont have".

Knn... give me time, let me find the manual and wiring diagram...
