Technical data
5.1
Function
The BROOKS Transponder Reader System is a high-frequency identification
system that uses FM transmissions.
The basic item is a transponder that works as a forgery-proof electronic identity
disk.
The reading unit of the system sends an energy impulse via the antenna. The
capacitor of the passive, battery-free transponder is charged by this impulse.
After that, the transponder returns a signal with the stored data.
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 transponder reader is transmitted to the host computer
via
■
a serial interface,
■
an RS485 interface (requires Brooks LF60 Gateway) or
■
an optional Ethernet interface.

ATTENTION
Antenna installation
When installing the antenna, consider the required reading and writing ranges.
The reader can only be used properly if the transponder is located within the
individual reading/writing range of the antenna.
If the transponder is very close to the antenna, the transponder may be detuned by the metal of the antenna and a reading/writing is not possible. We
recommend keeping a minimum distance between transponder and antenna of
about 10 mm.
6.5.1
Positioning the antenna
Reliable reading and writing depends on the distance from and orientation of the
transponder to the antenna.
Transponder parallel to the axis of the antenna:
Transponder perpendicular to the axis of the antenna:

General remarks
The reader has the option of communicating with a connected host system using
ASCII or SECS/HSMS protocols. The selection of protocol can be made in different
ways:
■
Automatic protocol recognition
■
Protocol switchover using DIP switches
■
Protocol setting using DIP switches
After a reset the protocol set at present is displayed briefly with the aid of the
"Read/Write ok" and Read/Write fail" LEDs ( Reset).
Product Manual - RFID Reader LF60C SoliD
39
Chapter 7
Operation
7.2.2
Automatic protocol recognition (default)
The reader automatically adapts to the relevant protocol by checking and
analyzing the first message it receives after a reset. Depending on the data
received, the interface is switched over accordingly and reinitialized. This
procedure can take several seconds. The messages sent are then lost. The
protocol found is used for further communication. Another change can only take
place after another reset.
Automatic protocol recognition can be deactivated by setting Parameter 98
(0x62) (from FW SG2S12 / SG2IV1.2: also with DIP1).
ATTENTION
If after a reset undefined or random characters are sent to the reader, this can
cause an unintentional change in parity or protocol! To prevent this, after
making the correct protocol selection, set Parameter 98 (0x62) (or from
firmware SG2S12 / SG2IV1.2: with DIP switches 1 and 2).
7.2.3
Protocol switchover using DIP switches
On power-up reset it is possible to switch the default protocol of the reader. To
activate this feature, it is necessary to set DIP switches 5 to 8 to the "ON" state.
After the power-up reset, the reader changes the protocol. The new protocol is
shown by the LEDs, and the reader waits until the DIP switches are changed.

automatic switchover and non-adjustably set the appropriate protocol by setting
DIP switch 2. At this setting any messages in the other protocol are discarded.

Structure of the communication protocol
General remarks:
■
The communication is done with ASCII packages.
■
Each reader represents a transponder reader with an RS232 interface or
Ethernet interface to which an address from 0 to E can be assigned.
When the reader is delivered, the address is 0.
■
After each command to the reader, a defined response is sent. We
recommend waiting for this response before sending a new command.

If there is no tag in the reading range of the antenna, the reader repeats the
reading before an error message is sent out. The number of repeats is defined in
parameter 4 (r/w maxrepeat).
No acknowledgement is expected from the host.
In case of a read request for more than one page (value 98 or 99), the protocol is
repeated. For the end of reading the reader sends an additional package. The
message includes the command 'x' and the source address '0'...'E'.
If the reading fails, the reading is repeated (parameter 3: r/w delay time;
parameter 4: r/w maxrepeat). If it fails again, the reader sends an error message
'no tag(4)' to the host.
If the sensor check is activated, the circuit status of the floating contact
connected to the external input is checked before a read process is triggered by
the host. If it is not connected, the error message "NOTAG" is sent; otherwise the
read process is started.

Depending on the surroundings of the antenna it might be necessary to tune the
RF module to get the optimal reading/writing range for this special installation
environment. The RF module therefore has 3 capacitors which can be switched
ON or OFF.
Each capacitor has one reserved bit which shows its status.
The tuning can be set manually (not recommended) or automatic tuning can be
performed (recommended).

Operation of SECS/HSMS Protocol
7.4.1
Introduction
The SECS-I standard defines a communication interface that is suitable for
exchanging messages between semiconductor processing equipment and a host.
A host is a computer or network of computers that exchanges information with
the equipment to perform/execute the production.
The standard does not define the data contained within a message. The meaning
of messages must be determined through a message contents 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.

Communication Equipment Employing Serial Binary Data Interchange.

7.4.2
SECS-I implementation
This message set describes the communication between a SECS-I reader and a
host. The host and the transponder 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.
Block transfer
protocol
Master-Slave
The gateway uses an interpretation of SECS-I by a serial transport layer. The
following are some points to note about this implementation.
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.
Control characters
The four standard handshake codes used in the block transfer protocol are
displayed in the table below.

bytes
The operation of all communication functions above the block transfer protocol is
linked in information contained in a 10-byte data element, called the header.
The header is always the first 10 bytes of every block sent by the block transfer
protocol.
The length includes all bytes sent after the length byte, excluding the two
checksum bytes. The maximum block length allowed by SECS-I is 254 bytes and
the minimum is 10 bytes.
The 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 device ID is a definite number to contact the reader.
The device ID consists of the 8-bit gateway ID (bit 0 - bit 7), which is identical
with the last two characters of the reader's serial number, and a 5-bit fixed reader
number
(bit 8 - bit 14 = 0x01).
Of course, the ID can be changed within the valid scope.

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.

Operation
Block transfer
The drawing below illustrates some simple message interactions between the host
protocol
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 and then tries to read.
If it receives an , it sends its message and then expects an .
If it receives an , it puts off sending its message, sends an 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.

HSMS option
The 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 3241
If 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.

HSMS implementation
HSMS 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 CONNECTED
The 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.
CONNECTED
A TCP/IP connection has been established. This status has two sub-statuses, NOT
SELECTED and SELECTED.

HSMS 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:
Bytes

Session ID (Device ID)
Header byte 2
Header byte 3
P-type
S-type
6-9
System bytes
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. For non-zero P-type
values, see SEMI E37.

Introduction
SECS-II implementation
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 transponder 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.

Description
The data format is coded in the upper 6
bits.
The two less significant bits determine the
number of the following length 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.
Data bytes of a data element or number of
the data elements in case of the "List"
format.
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 format type 0.
However, the length byte refers to the number of elements in the list rather than
to the number of bytes.

Introduction
SEMI E99
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:
Status models
■
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.
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.

CIDRW
Super-status of the CIDRW status model. Always active when
the CIDRW is powered on.
IDLE
No service is being performed. All heads are idle.
INITIALIZING
The CIDRW is carrying out initialization and a self-diagnostic.
Presence or absence of alarms is initially determined in this
status.
NO ALARMS
No alarm condition exists.
OPERATING
Normal operating status where reading and/or writing
operations can be performed.
OPERATING
STATUS
The CIDRW is fully capable of performing all services that it
supports.

8.5.1
Power LED does not light up
Check the power supply and the connection cables!
If the LED does not light up, disconnect the device from the power supply
and carefully remove the fuse. Test the fuse. If it is defective, replace it
with a fuse specified by the manufacturer!
If the above measures do not solve the problem, leave the reader
disconnected and contact the manufacturer!
8.5.2
Read fail LED flashes
Reader detected a hardware failure: no valid antenna adjustment or
antenna has broken.
Switch DIP8 to "On" to start an antenna tuning!
If Read fail LED flashes again:
Check if the antenna is located too near to a strong metallic environment.
Relocate the antenna with more distance!
Check if the antenna and the antenna cable are connected correctly. Use
another antenna cable if available!
8.6
If these measures do not solve the problem, contact the manufacturer!
Reade r does not respond
Check if the interface connection cable is undamaged and correctly
connected to both reader and host!
Check the status as indicated by the LED!

Reset
In the case of a malfunction, a hardware reset can be performed by
switching the power supply off and on!
After the reset, the reader performs a self-test. The self test can take up to
five seconds. As the first step in these self-tests, all LEDs (Status, Read OK
and Read Fail) light up. At the second step, the reader displays the selected
protocol type. The read fail LED signalizes the SECS-II protocol. The read
ok LED signalizes the ASCII protocol. If the test was successful, all LEDs
except the power LED go out!
8.8
P ower cut
After a power cut, the reader performs a reset with self-test. The self-test can
take up to five seconds. In the first step of these self-tests, all LEDs (status, read
fail, read ok) light up. In the second step, the reader displays the selected
protocol type. The read fail LED signalizes the SECS-II protocol. The read ok LED
signalizes the ASCII protocol.
If the test was successful, all LEDs, except for the power LED, go out.

11.1.2 Reading and writing ranges
ATTENTION
If the transponder is very close to the antenna the transponder may be detuned by the metal of the antenna and reading/writing is not possible. We
recommend keeping a minimum distance between transponder and antenna of
about 10 mm.
The following reading/writing ranges are measured with a 32 mm glass
transponder (read only, read/write, multipage). If you use a multipage
transponder, the diagrams are only valid for page 1 of the multipage transponder.
