Automatic Defect Creation and Inspection Data Collection#

Overview#

This feature enables Automatic MES Data Collection by parsing equipment events.

Currently supported events:

UnitsInspected
UnitsTested

How To Configure#

Relevant Artifacts#

The table below describes the properties for this entity type:

Name	Type	Is Mandatory	Data Type	Description
IoTMetadataDefinition	SmartTable	Yes	-	Metadata configuration for equipment integration
SMTConventionContext	SmartTable	Yes	-	SmartTable to get custom convention Product
SMTMapBoardIDContext	SmartTable	Yes	-	SmartTable to resolve and allow mapping of board

IoTMetadataDefinition Resource Level Configuration#

At the Resource level, there are several configuration we can make to set this feature.

Resource	Name	Value	Description
MES IPC-CFX Resource	materialUpdateFromPanelPosition	true	If true, the service api/IoTIPCCFX/LoadUnitIdentifiers will be called for these messages
MES IPC-CFX Resource	useIPCCFXToInspect	Supported Event Name	Event used to remove the Transaction ID/Primary Identifier pair from Queue.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	useInspectionToMaterialDataCollection	true	Enable Data Collection. If set we must also define the DEE name.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	useInspectionToMaterialDataCollection_DEE		Name of the DEE to be called to handle data collection.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	useInspectionToMaterialDataCollection_useAsync	true	Enable async Data Collection.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	useInspectionToMaterialDefects	true	Enable creation of defects using received data.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	usePanelPositionToMaterialDefects	true	Enable use of Panel Position for Material Identification.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	materialDefectsNotificationTemplate	Template Name	If set with notification template name, we will trigger a notification in case of Error during defect creation.
MES IPC-CFX Resource	removeTransactionIDonMessage	Supported Event Name	Event used to remove the Transaction ID/Primary Identifier pair from Queue.

How It Works#

This feature relies on the SmartTable IoTMetadataDefinition to determine the behavior of inspection and defect tracking operations for the current MES Resource instance.

Inspection Operation#

Checks if the Inspection operation is enabled for the current MES Resource.
If the configuration useIPCCFXToInspect is defined, the system will use the specified IPC-CFX message type to enable inspection. CFX.Production.UnitsInspected or CFX.Production.UnitsTested Event from IPC-CFX standard.

In the Event message we will retrieve TransactionId and InspectedUnits|TestedUnits object. With the TransactionId we will be able to retrieve from persistency the PrimaryIdentifier, which will identify MES Material.

TransactionId PrimaryIdentifier Persistency Handling

When removeTransactionIDonMessage is set to UnitsInspected, the value pair TransactionId - PrimaryIdentifier will be removed from persistency Queue after retrieving the information.

If the key materialUpdateFromPanelPosition is set we will use the MES service api/IoTIPCCFX/LoadUnitIdentifiers who will update the UnitIdentifier properties according to MES Panel Position.

LoadUnitIdentifiers service signature

The input object LoadUnitIdentifiersInput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description
PrimaryId	String	Material Name
Type	String	Load type (UnitsInspected\|UnitsTested)
InspectedUnits	InspectedUnit[]	Array of CFX InspectedUnit Object with UnitIdentifier updated
TestedUnit	TestedUnit[]	Array of CFX TestedUnit Object

The output object LoadUnitIdentifiersOutput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description
InspectedUnits	InspectedUnit[]	Array of CFX InspectedUnit Object with UnitIdentifier updated
TestedUnit	TestedUnit[]	Array of CFX TestedUnit Object with UnitIdentifier updated

If useIPCCFXToInspect is set to one of the supported events the Controller will call MES service api/IoTIPCCFX/TestUnitsInspected which will handle the MES PassFail Data Collection.

TestUnitsInspected service signature

Pre Conditions:

    Configs:
    /IoT/IPC-CFX/ParameterUnitsInspected/PassValue is set.
    /IoT/IPC-CFX/ParameterUnitsInspected/FailValue is set.
    /IoT/IPC-CFX/ParameterUnitsInspected/Parameter is set.
    /IoT/IPC-CFX/ParameterUnitsInspected/PerformDCSubMaterials is set.

The input object TestUnitsInspectedInput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description
Operation	String	Current Resource name
OverallResults	Dictionary	Overall Results : Panel Results
PanelBoardResults	PanelBoardResults	Panel Results
PerformToParentWhenPass	Bool	Perform UnitInspected to Parent Material

The output object TestUnitsInspectedOutput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description

Material Defect Operation#

Checks if the Material Defect operation is enabled for the current MES Resource.
If the configuration useInspectionToMaterialDefects is defined, the system will automatically open material defects received in the IPC-CFX message.
If set Controller will call MES service api/IoTUtilities/CreateDefects who will handle the creation of defects in MES.

CreateDefects service signature

The input object CreateDefectsInput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description
ResourceName	String	Current Resource name
UsePanelPosition	Resource	Enable the use of Panel position to identify MES Material
InspectedUnits	InspectedUnit[]	Array of CFX InspectedUnit Object
TestedUnit	TestedUnit[]	Array of CFX TestedUnit Object

The output object CreateDefectsOutput contains the following information:

Name	Type	Description
DefectsResults	List	List of defects names

Track-Out Operation#

If the configuration useIPCCFXToTrackOut is defined for either UnitsInspected or UnitsTested IPC-CFX messages, the system will perform a Track-Out operation after inspection.
At the end of the process we can use these events to Track the material Out of the Resource. Check this for more information.
