  1      Add shims to smart scope holder              

  2      Load tool base & secure with clamp           

  3      Check all screws ready (back out set         
         screws)                                      

  4      Completely remove tube clamps from

  5      Remove plastic covers if necessary           

  6      Screw sector to tooling base                 

  7      Check that sector lays flat by               
         gently tapping                               

  8      Insert tape shim to lock sector in           
         place

3\) Loading setup

  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------
  Step   Action                               Check   Comments

  1      Inspect target site on sector                

  2      Back out tool head adjustment screws         

  3      Place glass slide on target site,            
         load vacuum chuck, and adjust cups           
         to match slide.                              

  4      Make sure tool head position is OK           
         for new module to clear existing             
         modules. Lock head in place. Remove          
         chuck and glass slide.                       

  5      Load and run smartscope program              
         (find sector holes)                          

  6      Make sure module in frame has been           
         weighed                                      

  7      Place module frame on vacuum base &          
         turn on                                      

  8      Remove all tape from cable and stick         
         elsewhere on frame (out of the way.          
         Do not discard). Tape cable to table         

  9      Cut ends of flex close to module

3\) Place module- 2 person operation.

  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------
  Step   Action                               Check   Comments

  1      Make sure sector frame cable clamp           
         is off and path for cable is clear           

  2      Place vacuum pickup chuck on module          
         & switch vacuum on                           

  3      Release module base vacuum and               
         transfer module to sector tool               

  4      Secure cables with tape. Leave clamp         
         off.                                         

  5      Check visually that module lays flat         
         on sector. If not, adjust cup                
         positions and try again.                     

  6      Align                                        

  7      Lock tool head and check all 4               
         alignment marks with main camera.            

  8      Transfer chuck with module back to           
         vacuum base. Leave chuck vacuum on           
         and turn on base vacuum as well.

4\) Glue application

  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------
  Step   Action                               Check   Comments

  1      Mix new batch of glue                        

  2      Adjust air to 16 drops / minute              

  3      Place 8 drops between 2 glass slides         
         with ends offset. Cure on hot plate          
         and shear test.                              

  4      Apply glue on sector. Dispense three         
         drops each hole on the external              
         lines of the tool and four on the            
         two inside lines.                            

  5      Place few drops of glue on glass             
         slide and save                               
  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------

5\) Place module on glue. 2 person operation

  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------
  Step   Action                               Check   Comments

  1      Check that cable path is clear               

  2      Turn off base vacuum only and                
         transfer module to loading tool              

  3      Tape down cable. Do not clamp.               

  4      Re-align as needed. Lock tool head.          

  5      Visually inspect planarity. Adjust           
         only if a large deviation is seen.           

  6      Exit smartscope program and re-run,          
         finding the sector holes again.              
         Verify the module position. If it is         
         off there is a problem with the              
         fixture setup. Check that everything         
         is tight before re-aligning.                 

  7      Weigh empty frame with all original          
         tape

6\) Vacuum chuck release

  ------ ------------------------------------ ------- ----------------------
  Step   Action                               Check   Comments

  1      Check that glue on glass slide has           
         set                                          

  2      UV-tack cable to sector face                 

  3      Epoxy cable to sector face around UV         
         tack (don't need to wait for epoxy           
         to cure)                                     

  4      Turn off chuck vacuum and remove             
         chuck                                        

  5      Ad cable clamp if another module is          
         not being loaded right away
