USER GUIDE TB-9079WS Aware MonitorInstallation, Operation and MaintenanceMade in theUnited States of AmericaThe WS Aware Monitor is designed with digital signalprocessing technology for true continuous monitoring(versus pulsed or intermittent) of wrist strap functionality(path-to-ground and presence of 1 megohm resistor)and operator safety according to accepted industrystandards without capacitance variations from personnelor environment. Digital signal processing technologyuses dual-wire wrist straps to apply an ultra-low testvoltage of 0.05V onto the operator for the handling ofsensitive components.The WS Aware Monitor features operator body voltagedetection. It will alarm if the operator generates orcomes in contact with voltage that would be dangerousto an ESD susceptible item.Figure 1. SCS 770061 WS Aware Monitor with StandardRemotesFigure 2. SCS 770062 WS Aware Monitor with BigBrother RemotesDescriptionThe SCS WS Aware Monitor is a dual workstationcontinuous monitor for operators, ESD worksurfacesand metal tools. It continuously monitors thepath-to-ground integrity and body voltage of twooperators, as well as the path-to-ground integrity for twoconductive or dissipative worksurfaces and two metaltools. It also continuously monitors for electromagneticinterference (EMI) on two metal tools which may causeelectrical overstress (EOS) damage. The WS AwareMonitor eliminates the need for periodic testing andrecord keeping of wrist straps.The WS Aware Monitor continuously monitors two metaltools for electromagnetic interference (EMI). EMI cancause equipment lockups and malfunction. The WSAware Monitor will alarm if EMI is detected. Each WSAware Monitor is calibrated with accepted proceduresand standards traceable to the National Institute ofStandards and Technology (NIST) and includes acertificate of calibration.ANSI/ESD S20.20 section 7.3 states “Complianceverification records shall be established and maintainedto provide evidence of conformity to the technicalrequirements.” Per ANSI/ESD S1.1 Annex A.3 Daily(wrist strap system) testing may be omitted if constantmonitoring used.” Per ESD Handbook ESD TR 20.20section 5.3.2.4.4 “Typical Test programs recommendthat wrist straps that are used daily should be testeddaily. However, if the products that are being producedare of such value that knowledge of a continuous,reliable ground is needed, and then continuousmonitoring should be considered or even required.”The WS Aware Monitor and its accessories areavailable as the following item numbers:ItemDescription770061WS Aware Monitor, with Standard Remotes770062WS Aware Monitor, with Big BrotherRemotes770064Power Adapter, 100-240VAC Input, 7.5VDC 1.5A Output, All PlugsCTE701 Workstation Monitor CheckerCTA242 Operator Remote, StandardCTA243 Operator Remote, Big BrotherCTA245 Replacement Wrist Strap Jack PCB770055SMP SoftwareSCS - 926 JR Industrial Drive, Sanford, NC 27332East: (919) 718-0000 West: (909) 627-9634 Website: StaticControl.comTB-9079 Page 1 of 18 March 2020 2020 DESCO INDUSTRIES INCEmployee Owned

Static Management ProgramFeatures and ComponentsWS AWARE MONITORThe SCS 770061 and 770062 WS Aware Monitorsare compatible with SCS Static Management Program(SMP). SMP continuously monitors your ESD processcontrol system throughout all stages of manufacturing.SMP captures data from SCS workstation, equipmentand ESD event continuous monitors and provides areal-time picture of critical manufacturing processes.All activity is stored into a database for on-going qualitycontrol purposes. SMP allows you to pinpoint areas ofconcern and prevent ESD events. Quantifiable dataallows you to see trends, become more proactiveand prove the efficiency of your ESD process controlsystem.ABEFCDSMP is sold separately.

Remove the WS Aware Monitor and its operatorremotes from the carton, and inspect for damage.2. Determine the mounting location of the WSAware Monitor. Its display should be visible to theoperators. Use the two 4-40 threaded holes at theback of its enclosure and the included ring magnetsand 4-40 threaded screws if desired.3. Determine the mounting locations of the twooperator remotes. Their jacks should be accessibleto the operators. Locate them within reach of theincluded mini-DIN operator remote cables. Use theoperator remotes' mounting tabs to secure themunderneath table tops or equipment.4. Connect the included mini-DIN operator remotecables to the operator remote connectors located onthe left-side of the WS Aware Monitor.5. Route the mini-DIN operator remote cables from theleft-side of the WS Aware Monitor to their respectiveoperator remotes. Connect the cables to the back ofthe operator remotes.6. Insert the tinned terminations of the mat monitorcords into the mat 1 and mat 2 terminals locatedon the left-side of the WS Aware Monitor. Use asmall screwdriver or probe to push down the orangespring contacts and open their respective terminalgates. Insert the tinned wire, and let go of thespring contact to latch onto the wire. Ensure thatthe mat monitor switches are enabled if using thesemonitored mat circuits.7. Route the mat monitor cords from the left-side of theWS Aware Monitor to their respective worksurfacemats. Use the included push and clinch snaps tosecure the cords to the grounded mats.8. Insert stripped terminations of tool monitor wires(not included) into the tool 1 and tool 2 terminalslocated on the left-side of the WS Aware Monitor.25-28 AWG wire may be used. Use a smallscrewdriver or probe to push down the orangespring contacts and open their respective terminalgates. Insert the tinned wire, and let go of thespring contact to latch onto the wire. Ensure thatthe tool monitor switches are enabled if using thesemonitored tool circuits.SCS - 926 JR Industrial Drive, Sanford, NC 27332East: (919) 718-0000 West: (909) 627-9634 Website: StaticControl.comTB-9079 Page 4 of 18 2020 DESCO INDUSTRIES INCEmployee Owned
