7.7.2 Module Processing Using RFID
FmXP is capable of receiving and processing information for each module on a part carrier or workpiece
entering the dispense station. FmXP can output information for each module by assigning a Pass/Fail
status and can be programmed to skip the dispensing operation on a particular module if it has failed a
prior process.
7.7.3 RFID Module Programming Terminology
The definitions in Table 7-2 will assist you in preparing your program.
Table 7-2 RFID Programming Terminology
Term Definition
Module
A module is typically a physical part on the carrier. This is the unit which
can be assigned a Pass/Fail Status. FmXP is capable of processing up to
eight modules per workpiece or carrier.
Module Dispense
Pattern
Each module must have a dispense pattern. If all modules are identical,
only one pattern is required. This should be a standard FmXP pattern.
See 7.3.1 Creating a Pattern.
Location Table
The Location Table contains the location references for each module.
This reference consists of a unique name and an XY position. The
Module Definition Pattern must have a location reference defined for each
module.
Module ID
A Module ID is the number assigned to a module which links the external
data with its Location Reference in a dispensing program.
Module Definition
Pattern
The Module Definition Pattern is the dispense pattern for the entire part
carrier containing the modules. Module patterns are generally executed
from this pattern. The Module Definition Pattern is typically the
Workpiece pattern; however other patterns may be designated as the
Module Definition Pattern. The user must designate which pattern is the
Module Definition Pattern in order for this feature to work properly.
7.7.4 Creating the Module Definition and Module Dispense Patterns
Follow the steps in 7.3.1 Creating a Pattern to create the Module Definition Pattern (typically the
Workpiece Pattern) and the Module Dispense Patterns.
