The latest revision is located on Intranet.  Once printed it is an uncontrolled copy. All alterations to this work instruction require approval.  Contact the IT Global Education and Training Department to submit suggested alterations and or updates.

This edition applies to MES15 Portal 1.0 Application and all subsequent releases and modifications until otherwise indicated in new revisions.

 

 

Shop Floor Configuration

42Q’s powerful data collection system collects critical information from a plant’s shop floor, utilizing shop floor data collector, an intuitive tool developed by 42Q’s experienced manufacturing team. The aggregate information is stored in a cloud database, and available to MESWeb, where quality reports are generated. The 42Q system uses manual and automated barcode scanning to collect data for a product line or plant. Thus, 42Q plays an important role in maintaining unit histories and directing product movement on the manufacturing floor. The current version of 42Q includes configuration capabilities, which provide access to all sub-modules pages and their functionalities (view, add, edit, print/generate output files).

 

MFG Line Maintenance

This portlet enables users to assign data collector (scanning) locations to a manufacturing line. Production data collected in the Manufacturing Line portlet is integrated with 42Q Live where critical line status is displayed on dashboard systems according to target yields.

To access the Shop Floor Configuration, select Shop Floor Configuration on the menu. The main Shop Floor Configuration and sub-modules page are displayed:

NOTE: A user only has access to the modules assigned to his/her profile.

 

Add MFG Lines

This portlet enables the user to add manufacturing line configurations to the database.

1. To add manufacturing lines, click the Add icon. The MFG Line Form is displayed.

Figure 2: MFG Line Form

To add or edit a manufacturing line,

1. Enter the Name and the Site ID in the respective fields. If it is a WIP Location Line, at least one location must be assigned. Otherwise, the Pixel X and the Pixel Y, and at least one scanner must be assigned.

The name must be created according to the following rules:

• 2 chars for Level or Modules (areas of interests) - Ex: L1; M2
• 2 chars to group Process Lines - Ex: L110; M250
• 1 char with "_" + Process Name + 1 char with "_"   - Ex: L110_SMT_;  M250_PTH_       
• Line name - Ex: L110_SMT_Line1; M250_PTH_Line2.
• Project Name: The project name of the line, which is used here to distinguish between different projects with the same configuration. For example, if the project name is G18, the full manufacturing line name will be L110_SMT_Line1_G18; M250_PTH_Line2_G18.

 

Note: If the manufacturing line is WIP location line, the name must end with "WIP".

Note: The Site ID can be changed if all Site ID references were updated in the SFDC Miscellaneous Configuration sub-module. If it is a WIP location line, it is not possible to create an escalation for this manufacturing line.

Man Power, Work Hour, Min Sample Size, fields are going to be enabled only after the user selects enters the mandatory MFG Line Form fields. The Man Power and Work Hour parameters are defined and will reflect in the SOMS reports. The Man Power parameter can be also defined on the fly as a report parameter.

Also, the report requires all Mfg Line setups including Data Collectors and Multi-Pass Location setup – the same used to set up SOMS Global Status reports.

Note: The Man Power and Work Hour fields will be used in the MES Web reports.

 

Adding Escalation E-mails:

Add Escalation e-mails by

1. Entering an email address and selecting the Add icon. The escalation emails allow adding four levels of emails. Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4 tabs become available only when the information in the previous tab has an email address assigned to it.

Figure 3: Escalation

Using the available filters:

Scanners can be filtered by Shop Floor ID, Device Number, or Location Name using the Available Scanners field under the Associated Scanners tab:

• To filter by location, enter the Location name. (e.g., S076).
• To filter by Shop Floor ID, enter the shop floor ID (e.g., p99dcuat1).
• To filter by Device, enter the Device number (e.g., 76).

 

Removing Escalation E-mails:

• To remove a specific e-mail,

1. Select the desired e-mail to be removed and select Remove Selected Item.

• To remove all e-mails,

1. Select Remove All Items.
2. Select Ok to save, or Cancel to cancel the operation.

Adding or Removing scanners Tab:

Figure 5: Scanners Tab

• To add a scanner,

1. Select it from Available Scanners in the drop-down list.

• To remove a specific scanner,

      2. Select the desired scanner, select Remove Selected Item.

• To remove all scanners, 

      3. SelectRemove All Items.

      4. Select Ok to save, or Cancel to cancel the operation.

 

Adding or Removing Locations:

The Locations Tab allows the setup of manufacturing lines by locations, instead of scanners.

 

Figure 6: Locations Tab

The assignment between the Location and Line is available on the Locations Tab.
 

• To add a location,

1. Select it from Available Locations in the drop-down list.

• To remove a specific location,

2. Select the desired location, select Remove Selected Item.

• To remove all locations,

3. Select Remove All Items.
4. Select Ok to save, or Cancel to cancel the operation.

Note: One Location can not be assigned for multi-lines.  

 

Edit MFG Lines

This portlet enables the user to edit manufacturing line configurations. The steps for editing manufacturing lines are the same as those for adding. For further information, see the Add MFG Line section above.

To edit manufacturing lines,

1. Select the desired line and select Edit.

Figure 7: MFG Line List – Edit

2. Update the information in the MFG Line Form as needed.

3. Select Ok to confirm, or select No to cancel the update action.

Delete Mfg Lines

This portlet enables the user to delete an existing manufacturing line configuration. It is only possible to delete a manufacturing line if it does not have any Data Collector locations assigned to it. The user must first remove all assigned Data Collector locations from the manufacturing line configuration prior to deleting.

To delete a manufacturing line,

1. Select the desired manufacturing line, then select Delete. A confirmation message is displayed.

Figure8: MFG Line List - Delete

2. Select Yes to confirm, or No to cancel the action.

 

Print/Export Filtered MFG Lines

This portlet enables the user to print/export filtered manufacturing lines.

To print filtered MFG Lines,

1. Select Print/Export Filtered MFG Lines. A report is generated and the user is able to save the file or print it.

Import Escalation Data

To import escalation data,

1. select Import Escalation Data.

Figure 11: Import Escalation Data

     2. Choose the .csv file and save it.

The .csv file has the following format:

SITE (String), LINE (Mfg Line name defined on precondition 2), x (Always empty), y (Always empty), x Pixels (Integer), y Pixels (Integer), Escalation 1, Escalation 2, Escalation 3 and Escalation 4 - see example below (figure 11):

E43_HO,M110_SMT_Line_1,,,100,200,e-mail;email;-1-3-30,e-mail;-4-5-30,e-mail;-6-10-30,e-mail;-10-15-30

Note: CSV file format is currently the same in use by plants to maintaining SOMS Escalation and map coordinates.

 

Export Escalation Data

This portlet will export all escalation Data and save it in a ZIP file.
