Wafer Recovery / Wafer Handler Issues during Batch operation
- Make sure no Batches are Running or Waiting! Abort the Batch or Stop the Queue.
- Never exit the Task Streaming screen while Batches are incomplete/running, you will enter software limbo on infinite loop drive, requiring a software restart.
- Lift black cover behind keyboard
- Press AWH button for 1 sec and release (resets Wafer Handler)
- Wait until wafer handler “system booting” message is done and warning window in bottom left of main computer console has disappeared. Log window should say it booted succesfully. Takes a few minutes.
- (DO NOT do FAST STARTUP from error message, go to main menu!)
- Exit to main menu
- Go to Start/Stop
- Fast Startup
- Start - will reinitialize the wafer handler system
- Once complete, back to main menu
- If wafers in machine, go to material handler (Mat Hdl).
- Go to Remove Wafers menu and Collect Wafers
- Back to main menu when finished.
- If system says wafer is missing, contact engineer
IQC (Image Quality Control) Calibration Check
- Main Menu > Test Manager > Run Tests > Metrology Verification > Image Quality Control
- Accept (Upper Button)
- Perform Measurement
- Choose System Correction
- # Cycles = 1
- # Measurements = 3
- # Corrections = 1
- M "Measure" mode only (does Not update internal lookup tables)
- (UCSB numbers for test 1 3 1 M)
- Accept to run the test
- If | focus correction | < 50nm, system OK, note number in log book
- If | focus correction | > 50nm, run test again, if number keeps dropping, keep running until number stable
- If | focus correction | is still > 50nm, discuss with engineer
