Precautions in using the product
CIDRW System
User’s Manual
INTRODUCTION
Please observe the following precautions to prevent failure to operate, malfunctions, or undesirable effects on
product performance.
■About installation Site
Do not install this product in the locations subject to the following conditions.
• Place where direct sunshine strikes.
• Place with corroded gas, dust, metallic powder, and salinity.
• Place with condensation due to rapid temperature fluctuations.
• Place with condensation due to high humidity.
• Place where vibration and impact more than being provided by specification are transmitted directly
to main body.
• Place with spray of water, oil, and chemical medicine.
• The working temperature is within the range stipulated in the specifications.
■About depositoty Site
• Please follow the save ambient temperature / humidity, and keep this product.
■About wiring
• Use the power supply voltage specified in this cocument.
• Ensure correct polarity when connecting to the +/- power supply terminals.
• Do not run high-voltage lines and power lines though the same conduit.
• To avoid static-induced failure, wear a wrist band or equivalent means to release a static charge
before touching a terminal or a signal line within a connector.
• When you put on and take off a CIDRW head, please do not add excessive power to a connector.
• Please connect the correct CIDRW head to the amplifier unit.
■About cleaning
• Use alcohol to clean this product.
• Never use an organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, acetone or kerosene, as it will attack resin
components or case coating.
■Power and Graound Cables
• Use an appropriate ground. An insufficient ground can affect this product operation or result in dam-
age to this product.
■About the communication range and time
• Do the communication test with Transponder in the installation environment because the metal,
noise and ambient temperature around CIDRW head damage to the communication range and time.
• Install CIDRW head and ID tag in the appropriate distance because the communication range can
change by the difference of ID tag specifications.

Precautions in using the product
INTRODUCTION
■About mounting
• This product communicates with ID Tags using the 134 kHZ frequency band. Some transceivers,
motors, monitoring equipment, and power supplies (power supply ICs) generate electrical waves
(noise) that interfere with communications with ID Tags, If you are using the product in the vicinity of
any of these devices, check the effect on communications in advance.
• In order to minimize the effects of noise, ground nearby metal bodies with a grounding resistance not
exceeding 100 ohms.
• When mounting CIDRW Heads, tighten the screws tightly.(Recommended 0.6N·m)
• When multiple CIDRW Heads are mounted next to each other, communications performance could
be impaired by mutual interference. Read and follow the information in this manual on mutual inter-
ference when installing multiple heads.
Refer to page 86.
■Screw Locking Adhesive
• Screw locking adhesive (screw lock) may cause deterioration and cracking of resin parts; do not use
it for screws in resin parts or anywhere where resin washers are used.
■Startup Precaution
Never turn OFF the power supply while the CIDRW Controller is starting, including when power is
turned ON, when the mode is changed, or when the CIDRW Controller is being reset. Doing so may
damage the CIDRW Controller.
■Application Precaution
Never turn OFF the power supply while setting the IP address, subnet mask, or Web password. Doing
so may damage the Amplifier Unit.
■About Transponder and RF module made by Texas Instruments Co.
(1) We can’t warrant the specifications of the communication with Transponder and RF module.
(2) When the RF module is at fault, we can’t analyze the RF module.
■The characteristics of the V640-HAM11(-L)-ETN / V640-HAM11(-L)-ETN-V2
It is a circuit, designed to communicate characteristics match, but because it is intended to carry out
the communication with RF module and the transponder, can not be guaranteed.

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.

Features
A V640-series CIDRW Head can be connected to a V640-HAM11-ETN-V2 or V640-HAM11-L-ETN-V2
Amplifier Unit to read and write ID Tags manufactured by Texas Instruments (TI). Reading and writing is
performed according to commands from the host device.
■V640-HAM11-ETN-V2
The V640-HAM11-ETN-V2 Amplifier Unit is equipped with Ethernet. The host device is connected
through a LAN cable and controls the Amplifier Units using TCP/IP. The Amplifier Units provide a Web
browser function that allows communications to be set and status to be managed using simple com-
mand communications.
■V640-HAM11-L-ETN-V2
The V640-HAM11-L-ETN-V2 Amplifier Unit is equipped with Ethernet and can be connected to a V640-
HS62 CIDRW Head to perform long-distance communications. The functions of the V640-HAM11-L-
ETN-V2 Amplifier Unit are the same as those of the V640-HAM11-ETN-V2 Amplifier Unit.

■Functions
• NOISE MEASUREMENT
The levels of noise in the vicinity of the CIDRW Head are measured and the noise level is expressed
numerically in the range "00" to "99.
Refer to page 47, page 110.
• Detecting for CIDRW Head status
You can confirm if the CIDRW Head is connected to the Amplifier Unit correctly.
Refer to page 45.
• 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 page 30.
Refer to V640-HAM11-ETN-V2 and V640-HAM11-L-ETN-V2 Amplifier Units for information on the OPERATING indicator for
communications results.
Refer to page 15.
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.
• Browser Interface
You can confirm the status of the Amplifier Unit or control the Amplifier Unit by using Browser Interface.
You can...
• confirm the status of the Amplifier Unit
• set the Network Settings and Web Password
• communicate with ID tags
• measure the levels of noise
