PrInit

This command initializes the prober with die size, first coordinate (X and Y), units (mm or mils), and
mode information.
Usage
status = PrInit(int mode, double x_die_size, double y_die_size, int
x_start_position, int y_start_position, int units, int subprobtype);

Details
The mode defines the capabilities of the prober. Select External automatic mode when the tester
explicitly directs all the prober actions. Use Learn mode when the prober is configured with all the
wafer stepping information. When learn is selected, the tester commands the prober to do the next
operation. Please confirm the correct mode of operation for each specific application. Supported
modes vary from prober to prober.
The PrInit function returns the values:
•
1: PR_OK
