Master application used for steering the control applications in an ATE test environment.

Project description

The semi-ate-master-app package

This package provides a command line tool (launch_master). In order to use this application you have to configure it first. This tool should be run on host that either runs the control application from the semi-ate-control-app package or that is connected via ethernet to further hosts running the control application. The master application controls the so-called control applications, i.e. test nodes. To do so the master sends commands to the different test nodes using MQTT messages. Among others these commands include commands for loading and unloading test programs and starting the test execution.

The muster application can be controlled using a web interface or it is controlled by some handler application.

Configuration

Configuration of the master application is done by writing a JSON file called master_config_file.json. The following key-value-pairs have to be defined:

{
    "broker_host": "127.0.0.1",
    "broker_port": 1883,
    "device_id": "SCT-82-1F",
    "sites": [
        "0"
    ],
    "Handler": "HTO92-20F",
    "environment": "F1",
    "webui_host": "127.0.0.1",
    "webui_port": "8081",
    "jobsource": "filesystem",
    "jobformat": "xml.semi-ate",
    "skip_jobdata_verification": false,
    "filesystemdatasource.path": ".",
    "filesystemdatasource.jobpattern": "le#jobname#.xml",
    "enable_timeouts": true,
    "user_settings_filepath": "master_user_settings.json",
    "site_layout": { "0": [0, 0]},
    "tester_type": "Semi-ATE Master Single Tester",
    "loglevel": 10,
    "web_root_folder": "./"
}
  • broker_host defines the ip address of the mqtt broker.
  • broker_port defines the prot of the mqtt broker.
  • site_layout defines the site layout of the different test sites.
  • device_id defines the name of the test site
  • sites defines an array containing the test node ids running the control application
  • Handler defines the name of some device handler or wafer handler, i.e. prober
  • environment defines the test environment (F1, F2, F3, P1, P2, P3)
  • webui_host defines the ip of the web interface for controlling he master application manually
  • webui_port defines the port number of the web interface
  • webui_root_path defines the URI of the web-resources, i.e. the folder containing the index.html of some web application.
  • jobsource defines the location where to find test job definitions
  • jobformat defines the format of the job definitions
  • skip_jobdata_verification defines whether the job definition has to be verified
  • filesystemdatasource.path defines the path where to find job definitions
  • filesystemdatasource.jobpattern defines the pattern for the name of the test job file. This is done by replacing #jobname# by the job id, i.e. the lot id.
  • enable_timeouts defines whether or not timeouts are enabled. If enabled the system will produce some error message if certain things like becomming ready, loading or undloading a test program etc. take to much time.
  • user_settings_filepath defines where the user specific settings are stored. These settings are set via the web interface.
  • site_layout defines for each site the layout. The layout is the start coordinate of some site
  • tester_type defines the type of he tester. This provided by the tester plugin.
  • loglevel defines the log-level of the control application

Starting the Master Application

We assume that the semi-ate-master-app package has been installed in the current python environment. Further the configuration file master_config_file.json is located in the current folder.

IMPORTANT: The configuration file has to be named master_config_file.json
