Hermos Technical ReportsRelease 2.1 Page 3 of 221 System DescriptionThe HERMOS transponder reader system is used in the semiconductor industry forthe identification of the wafer-carrier. It is a high frequency identification systemusing the FM-transmission.The basic item is a transponder working as a forgery-proof electronic identity disc.The reader of the system sends an energy impulse via the antenna. The capacitorof the passive, battery-less transponder is charged by this impulse. After that, thetransponder returns a signal with the stored data.The total reading cycle takes less than 100 ms.As a sight-connection between transponder and reader is not absolutely necessary,the transponder can also be identified through non-metallic material.The HERMOS transponder reading unit is a LON-node. LON is a control networkfor distributed systems and has been developed by the US company Echelon. TheLONWORKS-technology corresponds to the SEMI (Semiconductor EquipmentMaterials International)-Standard (E54.6).The data received by the transponder reader are transmitted to equipment,terminalserver or host systems by the LON-network.
Hermos Technical ReportsRelease 2.1 Page 4 of 222 Important Notes:This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to thefollowing two conditions:1) this device may not cause harmful interference , and2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference thatmay cause undesired operation.CAUTION:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible forcompliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.NOTE:This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class Bdigital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed toprovide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residentialinstallation.This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if notinstalled and used in accordance with the instructions,may cause harmfulinterference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee thatinterference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip-ment does causeharmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct theinterference by one or more of the following measures:—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.—Increase the separation between the equip-ment and receiver.—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Hermos Technical ReportsRelease 2.1 Page 6 of 22Control-LEDThe two-coloured control-LED (red/green) shows the actual operation status of thedevice.Red: The control-LED glows shortly red, if the SERVICE-button had been pushed.If the LED blinks red or glows red continuously, the device is unconfigured orapplicationless. In this case, please contact the manufacturer.Green: The control-LED glows shortly green, if the device tries to read or write. SERVICE-buttonThe SERVICE-button can be used to install the reader into the network.Terminal screw for antenna shieldingThe shield of the antenna has to be sticked on the terminal screw.Control-moduleThe control-module is the control unit of the device. On the module, there is thecontroller (Neuron-chip), a plug-in program memory (FlashEEPROM) and theFTT10-A transceiver for the communication on the LON-bus.HF-moduleThe HF-module is the analog part of the device. It triggers the antenna andtransmits the received data to the control-module.

We recommend to use a power supply with stable current characteristicup to 0V output voltage (for example our part-no. SVG2,5).4.2 Additional Instruction for UseNever expose the device to a intense change in temperature. Otherwise, water ofcondensation can develop inside the device what can lead to damages.Never bend or extend the antenna cable or expose it to other mechanical loads.
Hermos Technical ReportsRelease 2.1 Page 12 of 225 Installation Description of the LON-NetworkThe installation can be carried out with the cables and distributors pre-manu-factured by HERMOS (see 6. Accessories). Your own cabling is also possiblewhen the following points are noticed.5.1 Transmission MediumThe bus cable is realized through an economy-priced twisted pair cable. Withcarried along operation voltage with 4 cores.For shielded cables, the shield has to be connected on both sides.Realization with optical fibre, radio and infrared is also possible.5.2 Network TopologyThere are two possiblities of network topology:-Free topology-Bus-topologyThe free topology allows a constellation in line-, star, ring- or tree-structure.So it is able to correspond to the geometrical demands.A mixed architecture is also possible.Only one connector is required.On account of the mode of transmission, it cannot be connected the wrong wayround.TReader or gatewayTerminator (bus terminationConnection cable (bus + power supply)T
