What Is a CIDRW System?
The CIDRW system writes data to, and reads data from, the carrier IDs (ID Tags) mounted on the carriers
(FOUP) in semiconductor manufacturing processes without contacting these ID Tags. CIDRW is the
abbreviation of Carrier ID Reader/Writer and this abbreviation is used throughout this manual.
Reading and writing information such as models, process instructions, lots, and inspection results to and from
ID Tags makes it possible to manage work instruction information from a host device.

Installation and Connections/Wiring
CIDRW Head
The area for communications with ID Tags varies substantially according to the installation orientations
and the background conditions (metals, noise, etc.). Check the communications area before deciding
the installation position.
For details on actual communications distances, see Characteristic Data depending on Conditions of
Use in Appendix.
Refer to page 81.
Positional Relationship between the CIDRW Head and the ID Tag
The communications area differs according to the positional relationship during communications.
Data Reading and Writing
The communications distances for reading and writing are not the same; the distance is shorter for
writing. Therefore, when data is to be both read and written, take the distance for writing as the refer-
ence distance when installing the CIDRW Head and the ID Tag.
Mounting
orientation Communications area (purely illustrative) Explanation
Coaxial The maximum communications area is
obtained when the center lines of the CIDRW
Head and the ID Tag coincide.
Parallel The maximum communications area is
obtained when the center point of the
antenna on the CIDRW Controller is aligned
with the center line of the ID Tag.
Vertical When the center point of the antenna on the
CIDRW Head is aligned with the center line
of the ID Tag, the communications area is
substantially reduced.

Test Mode
Test Mode can be used to check communications between the ID Tags and Amplifier Units without
connecting a host device. Communications with ID Tags are automatically performed every second
and the communications results are displayed on the OPERATING indicator.
Refer to V640-HAM11-ETN and V640-HAM11-L-ETN Amplifier Units for information on the OPERATING indicator for communi-
cations results.
Refer to page 17.
Always connect the CIDRW Head before operating the Amplifier Unit in Test Mode. If Test Mode is used without connecting a
CIDRW Head, the ERROR inductor will light and Amplifier Unit operation will stop.
Commands from the host device are not accepted during operation in Test Mode. To end Test Mode, turn OFF the Test Mode pin
on the DIP switch and restart the Amplifier Unit.
