Available Fiducial Shape(s):

Circle

Cross

Hash

Oblong

Square

Target

Fiducial Width:

The width to use for the fiducial.  Typically this is 1mm.

Available Mask Shape(s):

Circle

Square

Note: Mask shape are optional.  If Mask Shape is empty, or Mask Width is zero - no mask pad will be created, only the fiducial pad.

Mask Width:  

The width to use for the fiducial clearance and mask pad size.  Should be larger than the Fiducial Width.

Note: Mask width is optional.  If Mask Shape is empty, or Mask Width is zero - no mask pad will be created, only the fiducial pad.

Center Point X, Y :

Assign the center point for the fiducial.

Relative X,Y Coordinates are supported:

You may use Relative X,Y Coordinates requires the at-sign @    (See below for examples)

X = @-1   Y = @0.25   would result in -1 (from Panel Right) and 0.25 (from Panel Bottom)

X = @0.5   Y = @-0.75   would result in 0.5 (from Panel Left) and -0.75 (from Panel Top)

Fiducial Type:

Local

Global

Panel

Note: Fiducial type is optional.  This will attach a Fiducial type attribute to each Fiducial pad created - primary used when exporting ODB++, IPC-2581, and other formats that retain this information.

Layer(s):

Choose the layers you wish to have the fiducial created on.
