1. 4 SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
1.4.1 PROJECT CRITERIA
The system PILOT V8 has been designed and manufactured in accordance with the essential safety
requirements contained in the EMC DIRECTIVE 89/336/EEC (and subsequent amendments) on
electromagnetic compatibility and in the DIRECTIVE 73/23/EEC (and subsequent amendments) on
electric safety.
The compliance with the aforementioned directives has eliminated or reduced hazards to the minimum,
both during ordinary operation and servicing.
The system is manufactured with premium quality components. All components used are thoroughly
tested in accordance with the quality standards set forth in the laws in force.
1.4.2 SAFETY DEVICES
The systems are equipped with several safety devices to reduce operators' hazards to a minimum. It
follows a list:
•Protection panels (P1): to protect the system from environmental hazards and prevent users from
coming into contact with life internal components.
•Protective cover (P2): To prevent users from inadvertently inserting their hands in the work area
during the execution of a program. The program is immediately stopped if the cover is opened during
the testing phase.
•EMERGENCY OFF Button (P3): When pressed, it disconnects the system (PC excluded).
•Magneto thermal relays (P4): A magneto thermal relays respectively protect the system and the
instrumentation. Both relays disconnect the components from the power supply if the absorption
value is above the limit.
•Ground protection circuit (P5): All components that may come into contact with the operator are
grounded to avoid potential hazardous electric shocks.

1.4.3 WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDED BEHAVIOR
Users should follow the warnings and recommended behavior described in this section to avoid injuring
others or damaging the system during its operation.
WARNING Never perform operations that differ from those specified in the maintenance
procedures described in Section MAINTENANCE of this manual on mechanical
and electronic parts.
WARNING If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. See paragraph 1.4.4
RECOMMENDED USE OF THE SYSTEM.
WARNING Seica S.p.A. shall not be liable for damages caused by operations that are not
compliant with the instructions provided in this manual.
WARNING The introduction of hands and/or other objects into the system may damage it
and cause serious injuries.
WARNING Never lean on the protective frames of the system during its operation.
WARNING When the system is testing, do not introduce into it any object different from the
board to be tested.
WARNING Do not put any liquids into the system
WARNING For cleaning, inspection and maintenance instructions, refer to Section

1.4.4 RECOMMENDED USE OF THE SYSTEM
System PILOT V8 should be used only to test mounted boards. The use of system for applications other
than those described (for example to test boards with dimensions above the set limits or to test parts
containing inflammable fluids or materials) can damage the system and injure users, and is therefore
regarded as improper use for which Seica S.p.A. declines all responsibility.
1.4.5 IMPROPER USE
The use of the system for applications other than those described is regarded as improper.
1.4.6 RESIDUAL HAZARDS
To protect the users and the system from residual hazards, that is from unpredictable risks or from
hazards that cannot be completely eliminated, we recommend users to strictly follow the warnings listed
in paragraph WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDED BEHAVIOR and to follow the instructions given here below.
•Avoid wearing loose clothing or apparel with parts (sleeves, hems,…) that could be clamped or
get tangled during work.
•Avoid wearing ties or scarves.
•Avoid wearing long necklaces, bracelets or rings.
•If necessary, wear a cap to keep long hair out of the way.
1.4.7 WARNINGS FOR MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES
Due to the complexity and the high technological level of the PILOT V8 , maintenance operations are
classified in detail along with the requirements for the personnel authorized to perform them.
The customer is authorized to carry out the ordinary maintenance operations described in the
MAINTENANCE section of this manual. For different operations, customers should contact the Customer
Service of Seica S.p.A., which will decide whether to provide specific instructions to allow the customer to
carry out the necessary operations directly or organize an on-site inspection.
WARNING Customers must always contact the technical personnel of Seica S.p.A. before
carrying out any operation.

2. CONTROL PANELS
The PILOT V8 Automatic systems have an innovative control panel, which enables the complete control of
the system through a set of soft-touch keys.
The Control Panel located on the right side of the system, is used to switch on/off the system and to
control the camera movements. There are specific buttons used to start/stop the test and the light
indicator that shows the operator the system status.
A set of LED lights on the control panel, help identifying the operating status of the test system.

SEL: The SEL soft-touch key, allows to activate the second function possibly present on some buttons of
the control panel. If the button SEL is pressed, the F2 led turns on (the LED indicates the current
function enabled).
The F2 function (where available) is reported in white characters on the lower side of the button. Upon
an idle condition of the buttons (3 sec. approximately) the main function (F1) is automatically restored.
According to the LED light (sx, dx) the FIXTURE MODE button allows to manage the
right/left clamps, using the related buttons (FIX UP, for upper clamps and FIX DOWN for lower
clamps). When the button FIXTURE MODE is hold pressed for a while, the LEDs condition
may be as follows:
SX= ON (control of left side)
DX= ON (control of right side)
DX/SX= ON (control of left and right side)
Depending on the light LED on the FIXTURE MODE button, the button FX UP enables to
drive the left or the right side of the upper clamp. When LED is ON, the clamp is open.
Depending on the light LED on the FIXTURE MODE button, the button FX UP enables to
drive the left or the right side of the upper clamp. When LED is ON, the clamp is open
Note: The mobile rail is managed with the joystick, but only when COVER is open and no VIVA dialog
window is active. Move the joystick upwards to raise the upper rail, and downwards to lower the mobile
rail. This function is active only when the safety key is present and set to Debug position.
To open/close the doors of the test system, use the buttons
