Command: b
Mnemonic: EXCT_pwfilm
(Process write film)
Parameters:
[PROCID] [STEPID] [assign_delim] [FILM_NUMBER] where
PROCID identifies target process,
STEPID identifies target step within process,
FILM_NUMBER
specifies
new
film selection 1-99 for step.
Description:
Commands STC to set process step's film selection to new value.
Returns:
[RZCD_AOK] if proper process, step and film numbers were sent.
[RZCD_ILCD] if unit is non-sequencing instrument.
[RZCD_ILDV] if improper value for parameter arguments.
[RZCD_ILSN] if too many arguments, wrong delimiters, etc..
[RZCD_INHB] if the requested step number is beyond the last valid step in the program or the
instrument is running a process and the selected process is the active process and the step
being alterred is the current active layer step. Programming the film for steps other than
the current active step is valid and allowed.

Command: c
Mnemonic:
EXCT_prthik (Process read thickness)
Parameters:
[PROCID] [STEPID] where PROCID is 1..9 and STEPID is step selector 1..99.
Description:
Request a readback of a process step's final thickness limit value setting. Returns a
numeric value (0-9999999 angstroms) for the current setting of the target process step.
Returns:
[RZCD_AOK][thik_value]
if
proper
process and step #s were sent.
[RZCD_ILCD] if unit is non-sequencing instrument.
[RZCD_ILDV] if improper value for parameter arguments.
[RZCD_ILSN] if too many arguments, wrong delimiters, etc..
[RZCD_INHB] if step number not valid in specific process program.
______________________________________________________________________
Command: d
Mnemonic:
EXCT_pwthik (Process write thickness)
Parameters:
[PROCID] [STEPID] [assign_delim] [THIK_VAL] where
PROCID identifies target process,
STEPID
identifies
target
step
within
process,
THIK_VAL
specifies
new
final
thickness value 0..999999 angstroms for step.
Description: Commands STC to set process step's thickness limit to new value.
Returns:
[RZCD_AOK] if proper process, step and thickness numbers were sent.
[RZCD_ILCD] if unit is non-sequencing instrument.
[RZCD_ILDV] if improper value for parameter arguments.
[RZCD_ILSN] if too many arguments, wrong delimiters, etc..
[RZCD_INHB] if the requested step number is beyond the last valid step in the program. It is
always legal to change the final thickness value in the recipe, even when the program is
running the targeted process step layer.

Command Examples
Command W2
57
Response L
Description
Command to erase step 57 of process 2 is invalid because no such step exists, or process
is currently active.
