4. Software
4.1. Startup and Run Screen
4.1.1 Startup with Passwords Enabled
If the Cee® 1300CSX debonder tool has passwords enabled, the initial screen will only
contain login and logout buttons.
To log in, press the Login button, to view the touch screen keyboard, and then enter
your password. By default, the passwords for a Cee® 1300CSX tool are:
Super User Level: CEE
User Level: 1300CSX
Maintenance: DIAG
4.1.2 Home Slide Button
Once login is complete, or at startup if passwords are not enabled, the Home Slide
button is visible. Pressing this button will move the slide to the home sensor at a high
speed. Once the home sensor detects the bottom platen, the bottom platen will move off
of the sensor and then back onto the sensor at a very slow speed. Once the x-axis slide
has returned to its home position, the z-axis lift platform will return to its home position
by moving up to the end of its stroke and then back to the zero position. Once the
homing sequence is complete, the Run screen appears and a process may be run.
4.1.3 Run Screen
Once the slide has returned to its home position and the user has logged in (if enabled),
the Run screen will appear.
From this screen, the user can go directly to the Debonding Process screen by pressing
the Debonding Process button in the left-center of the screen. Navigating to other
windows is also possible by using the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen.

4.2 Debonding Process Screen
The Debonding Process screen is used to run and monitor debonding processes using
the Cee® 1300CSX tool’s software.

The controls and indicators found on the Debonding Process screen are listed below:
1. Recipe Name: The name of the currently loaded recipe
2. Status: Describes the current status of the debonding process
3. Load button: Navigates to the recipe selection screen (section 4.2.1) to select the
process settings
4. Edit Recipe button: Navigates to the Debonding Process editor if a recipe is
loaded. If a recipe is not loaded, navigates to the recipe selection screen (section
4.2.1).
5. Time indicator: Displays the current time remaining of the current process step. Not
all process steps are time-based.
6. Velocity indicator: Shows the current speed of the lower platen
7. Position indicator: Shows the current position of the lower platen along the slide
8. Press Height indicator: Shows the current height of the bottom platen
9. Force indicator: Shows the current x-axis (lateral) force being applied at the bottom
platen

10. Process button: The process button has three modes:
a. Start Process: Starts the debonding process. The user will be prompted to
load the substrate at the appropriate time.
b. Abort: Aborts a currently running process.
c. OK: Turns off the Process Complete alarm.
11. Run as lot check box: Checking this box will cause the tool to begin the same
process as soon as the previous process was completed. Checking this box
eliminates the need for the user to press Start Process a second time. This check
box will only appear if the tool is set to Production Mode on the User Configuration
screen (section 4.5).
12. Temperature and Vacuum display: Shows the current temperature and vacuum
level of both platens.
13. Current display: Shows the current on the z-axis lift.
14. Pressure display: Shows the current system pressure.

4.2.1 Running a Debonding Process
To run a debonding process, a recipe must first be loaded. Pressing the Load button will
bring up the recipe selection screen (see below). To select a recipe, double-press on
the desired recipe, or select the desired recipe and press Enter.
11
4.2.2 Loading a Substrate
The Cee® 1300CSX tool will prompt the user to load a substrate at the appropriate time
after the Start Process button is pressed. The process to load a substrate is as follows:
1. Place substrate on proper loading arm with the notch or flat to the right.
2. Insert loading arm with substrate into the alignment pocket on the lower platen at
the angle shown below. Be sure the substrate does not move on the loading arm.
3. Rotate the arm forward until the substrate is lifted off the loading arm.
4. Carefully pull out loading arm without bumping the substrate.
5. Visually check that the substrate is centered.
6. Press Continue at the user prompt.
