Brooks Automation260301 Revision A 17ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus 5 Product SpecificationsProduct Manual 5.1 Function5 Product SpecificationsThis chapter gives you an overview of the following topics:  Function  Images  Description of Components  Technical Data5.1 Function5.1.1 GeneralThe BROOKS RFID reader system is a radio-frequency identification system.The reader of the system sends an electromagnetic field to the battery-free transponder via the antenna. This activates the transponder and sends the stored data back to the reader.The total reading cycle takes less than 100 ms.Since a sight connection between the transponder and the reader is not absolutely necessary, the transponder can also be identified through non-metallic material.The data received by the RFID reader is transmitted to the RFID CAN Gateway via: CAN Bus Interface

Brooks Automation18 260301 Revision A5 Product Specifications ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus5.1 Function Product Manual5.1.2 Basic FunctionsThe reader can support various basic functions:Reading of dataWriting of dataSetting and reading reader parametersSubsystem commandsRead status5.1.3 Normal ModeIn normal mode the Brooks RFID reader is ready for operation directly after a hardware reset. ATR60LF also sends an power up event to the host when it starts up. In this mode it does not perform any independent actions. The latter usually have to be triggered by the host issuing protocol commands. The exceptions are sensors and pushbuttons that on some Brooks device variants are located on the exterior of the housing. Status changes at the inputs generate messages that are automatically sent to the host, provided a connection exists.Individual protocol commands can be sent to the device as soon as the reader has been connected to the Gateway. For communication the default settings of the CAN Bus interface have to be observed ( Parameters of the CAN Bus Interface).5.1.4 Automatic ReadingBrooks RFID CAN Bus readers provide the option of “Automatic Reading”. In this case a read operation is performed which is triggered by a sensor. If a connection exists, the data of the automatic read operation is then sent to the host immediately.This automatic read operation is enabled by multiple parameters. After a defined sensor delay time the reader detects the sensor change. With the “Watchport” parameter the behavior is defined for when a sensor change has been detected. With the „PIP_XYZ“ parameters the behavior of the automatic reading is enabled and adjusted. If the read function has been enabled, the device performs the automatic read operation independently.

Brooks Automation52 260301 Revision A7 Operation ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol Product Manual7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol7.5.1 IntroductionThe SECS-I standard defines a communication interface that is suitable for exchanging messages between semiconductor processing equipment and ahost. A host is a computer or network of computers that exchanges information with the equipment to perform/execute production.The standard does not define the data contained within a message. The meaning of messages must be determined through a message content standard such as SEMI Equipment Communications Standard E5 (SECS-II).This standard provides the means for independent manufacturers to produce equipment and hosts that can be connected without requiring specific knowledge of each other.The SECS-I protocol can be seen as a layered protocol used for point-to -point communication. The layers within SECS-I are the physical link, the block transfer protocol and the message protocol.The standard is not intended to meet the communication needs of all possible applications. For example, the speed of RS232 may be insufficient to meet the needs of transferring mass amounts of data or programs in a short period, such as may be required for high-speed functional test applications.In a network, the roles of host and equipment may be assumed by any party of the network. In this situation, one end of the communications link must assume the role of the equipment and the other the role of the host.Electronic Industries Association Standards:EIA RS-232-C Interface between Data Terminal Equipment and Data Communication Equipment Employing Serial Binary Data Interchange.7.5.2 SECS-I ImplementationThis message set describes the communication between a SECS-I reader and a host. The host and the RFID reader communicate via an RS232 interface (SECS-I).Character structure Data is transmitted or received in a serial bit stream of 10 bits per character at one of the specified data rates. The standard character has one start bit (0), 8 data bits and one stop bit (1). All bit transmissions are of the same duration. SECS-I performs no parity or other verification of the individual bytes.Master-Slave The host connects to the reader. If there is a conflict, the host “gives in” (i.e. receives before sending).In the course of communication, the reader takes on the role of the master and the host takes on the role of the slave.

The maximum block length allowed by SECS-I is 254 bytes and the minimum is 10 bytes.<ENQ> 0x05 Request to send<EOT> 0x04 Ready to receive<ACK> 0x06 Correct reception<NAK> 0x15 Incorrect receptionByte msbDescriptionLength 0Length without checksum, 10 - 254Header1 R Upper device ID2Lower device ID3 W Upper message ID (Stream)4Lower message ID (Function)5 E Upper block number6Lower block numberSystem bytes7System byte 18System byte 29System byte 310 System byte 4Text 11 - 254 Message text, user dataChecksum 255, 256 16-bit unsigned checksum

Brooks Automation54 260301 Revision A7 Operation ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol Product ManualThe reverse bit (R bit) signifies the direction of a message. The R-bit (msb) is set to 0 for messages to the equipment and to 1 for messages to the host.The W bit indicates that the sender of a primary message expects a reply. A value of 1 in the W bit means that a reply is expected.The message ID identifies the format and content of the message being sent.A primary message is defined as any odd-numbered message. A secondary message is defined as any even-numbered message.The end bit determines whether a block is the last block of the message. A value of 1 means that the block is the last block.A message sent as more than one block is called a multi-block message. A block number of 1 is given to the first block, and the block number is incremented by one for each subsequent block until the entire message is sent.As all messages can be sent in one block, the block number always has the value 1.The system bytes in the header of each message for a given device ID must meet the following requirements:The system bytes of a primary message must be distinct from the bytes of all currently open transactions initiated from the same end of the communications link.The system bytes of the reply message are required to be the same as the system bytes of the corresponding primary message.The system bytes are incremented for each primary message.The checksum is calculated as the numeric sum of the unsigned binary values of all the bytes, after the length byte and before the checksum and in a single block.

Brooks Automation260301 Revision A 55ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus 7 OperationProduct Manual 7.5 Operation of the SECS ProtocolBlock transfer protocol The drawing below illustrates some simple message interactions between the host and the equipment. The figure shows the possible handshake sequence to acquire the status of the equipment.When the host wants to send, it first sends an <ENQ> and then tries to read.If it receives an <EOT>, it sends its message and then expects an <ACK>.If it receives an <ENQ>, it puts off sending its message, sends an <EOT> and then reads the other message.When both the host and the equipment try to send at the same time, the host must cancel its inquiry, because the host is working in slave mode. It must first receive the equipment message, because the reader is the master. Only then can the host send its message.For more detailed information about all possible cases, see SEMI E4.(SEMI Equipment Communication Standard 1 Message Transfer SECS-I)

Brooks Automation56 260301 Revision A7 Operation ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol Product Manual7.5.3 HSMS OptionThe hardware version with an Ethernet interface uses the HSMS protocol. It works as a HSMS server. That means that it waits for a connection inquiry of any HOST PC. TCP/IP: IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Port 3241If a connection inquiry of any HOST takes place, the reader initializes the HSMS connection, and the SECS-II messages defined in the message set are forwarded from the reader to the respective HOST and vice versa.It is possible to operate all readers connected to the network via one or several HOST PCs.But one HSMS reader can only be connected to one HOST at a time.Use the Brooks Device Discoverer to change the TCP/IP settings.7.5.4 HSMS ImplementationHSMS defines the procedure for all message exchanges between entities across the TCP/IP. The HSMS Connection Status Diagram - The HSMS status machine is illustrated in the diagram below. The behavior described in this diagram defines the basic requirements of HSMS:A - NOT CONNECTEDThe entity is ready to listen for or to initiate TCP/IP connections, but either has not yet established any connections or all previously established TCP/IP connections have been terminated.CONNECTEDA TCP/IP connection has been established. This status has two sub-statuses, NOT SELECTED and SELECTED.B - NOT SELECTEDA sub-status of CONNECTED in which no HSMS session has been established or any previously established HSMS sessions have ended.

Brooks Automation260301 Revision A 57ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus 7 OperationProduct Manual 7.5 Operation of the SECS ProtocolC - SELECTEDA sub-status of CONNECTED in which at least one HSMS session has been established. This is the normal “operating” status of HSMS: data messages may be exchanged in this status.The specification of a required TCP Application Program Interface (API) for use in implementations is outside the scope of HSMS.

As explained in the overview, once the connection is established, the two entities establish HSMS communications with the Select procedure. The data messages may be exchanged in any direction at any time. When the entities wish to end HSMS communication, the Deselect or Separate procedure is used to terminate the HSMS communication.

An HSMS message is transmitted as a single continuous stream of bytes in the following order:The minimum possible message length is 10 (header only). The maximum possible message length depends on SECS-I.Number of bytes Description4 bytes Message length. MSB first. Specifies the number of bytes in the message header plus the message text.10 bytes Message header0 - n bytes Message text. Format is further specified by P-type field of message header. The message text corresponds to message data by SECS-II encoding.

Brooks Automation60 260301 Revision A7 Operation ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol Product ManualHSMS message header The message header is a 10-byte field. The bytes in the header are numbered from byte 0 (first byte transmitted) to byte 9. The format of the message header is as follows:The physical byte order is designed to correspond as closely as possible to the SECS-I header.The session ID is a 16-bit unsigned integer value, which occupies bytes 0 and 1 of the header (byte 0 is MSB). Its purpose is to provide an association by reference between control messages and subsequent messages.Header byte 2 is used in different ways for different HSMS messages. For control messages, it contains 0 or a status code. For a data message, it contains the W bit and SECS stream.Header byte 3 contains 0 or a status code for control messages. For data messages, it contains the SECS function.P-type is an 8-bit unsigned integer value which occupies byte 4 of the message header; message header and message text are encoded. Only P-type = 0 is defined by HSMS to mean SECS-II message encoding.

Brooks Automation62 260301 Revision A7 Operation ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol Product Manual7.5.5 SECS-II ImplementationIntroduction The SEMI Equipment Communication Standard Part 2 (SECS-II) defines how messages exchanged between intelligent equipment and a host are interpreted.It is the intent of this standard to be fully compatible with SEMI Equipment Communication Standard E4 (SECS-I).The messages defined in this specification support the typical activities required for the BROOKS RFID reader.SECS-II gives form and meaning to messages exchanged between the equipment and the host using a message transfer protocol, such as SECS-I. SECS-II defines the method of conveying information between the equipment and the host in the form of messages.These messages are organized into categories of activities, called streams, which contain specific messages, called functions. In SECS-II, messages are identified by a stream code (0-127, 7 bits) and a function code (0-255, 8 bits). Each combination of stream and function represents a unique message identification.SECS-II defines the structure of messages into entities called items and lists of items. These data structures define the logical divisions of the message as distinct from the physical division of the message transfer protocol.An item is an information packet that has a length and format defined by the first 2, 3 or 4 bytes of the item. These bytes are called the item header. The item header consists of the format byte and the length byte as shown below.A list is an ordered set of elements, whereby an element can be either an item or a list. The list header has the same form as an item header with Byte Name Description0Format and number of the length bytesThe data format is coded in the upper 6 bits. The two less significant bits determine the number of the following length bytes.11-21-3Length bytes The length corresponds to the number of the bytes of a data element. In the "List" format, the length corresponds to the number of the list elements.The standard does not require the minimum possible number of length bytes for a given data length.Next <Length> Data Data bytes of a data element or number of the data elements in case of the "List" format.

However, the length byte refers to the number of elements in the list rather than to the number of bytes.Data items The formats represent arrays of types: <type>[number of elements], whereby <type> is one of the following:Oct- code Hex-code FormatMeaning Example00 01 List List element with the number of the “Length” data elements<L2> <A “Hello”> <B 0x00>11 25 Boolean 1-byte Booleanfalse = 00true = 01 <Boolean1 0x00>10 21 Binary Byte sequenceof the length “Length” <B1 0x01>20 41 ASCII Printable ASCII characters <A “Hello”>31 65 I1 1-byte signed integer <I1 123>32 69 I2 2-byte signed integer <I2 -12345>34 71 I4 4-byte signed integer <I4 2147483647>30 61 I8 8-byte signed integer <I8 931372980293834>51 A5 U1 1-byte unsigned integer <U1 0>52 A9 U2 2-byte unsigned integer <U2 #empty>54 B1 U4 4-byte unsigned integer <U4 429489725>50 A1 U8 8-byte unsigned integer <U8 763468676756767>40 91 F8 8-byte floating point <F8 1.223 e204>44 81 F4 4-byte floating point <F4 -1.23 >

Brooks Automation260301 Revision A 65ATR60LF RFID Reader CAN Bus 7 OperationProduct Manual 7.5 Operation of the SECS Protocol7.5.6 SEMI E99Introduction The purpose of the Carrier ID reader/writer functional standard is to provide a common specification for concepts, behavior and services provided by a carrier ID reader/writer to an upstream controller. A standard interface increases the interchangeability of a carrier ID reader/writer, so that users and equipment suppliers have a wide choice.Scope:The interface standard addresses the functional requirements for a generic carrier ID reader/writer interface with an upstream controller.The specification includes the required behavior and required communications for a carrier ID reader and writer.The specification does not require, define or prohibit asynchronous messages sent by the carrier ID reader or writer.This standard does not purport to address safety issues, if any, associated with its use.Status models To facilitate independent control of the individual heads, there are two separate status models defined, one for the CIDRW subsystem and one for each individual head. The BROOKS reader combines the CIDRW subsystem with the head.The status model for the BROOKS reader is displayed in the status model below.
