V4.24A
Brooks Automation ESC-200 Firmware Version
About this part
V4.24A identifies a legacy firmware revision associated with a Brooks Automation ESC-200 smart robot controller; it is not the controller hardware model number. Brooks documentation describes the 200 Series ESC platform as a controller for atmospheric wafer-handling systems. The firmware executes commands and macros, while system-specific macro, coordinate, parameter, and optional pre-aligner files are stored separately. The firmware revision alone does not define the controller’s electrical rating, installed boards, robot compatibility, or loaded application files
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

What V4.24A Identifies
The identifier denotes embedded controller firmware rather than a physical controller model or orderable hardware configuration.
Configuration and Compatibility Boundary
Brooks documentation distinguishes firmware generations and system-specific controller files.
- Axis assignments, parameter files, and status-bit definitions can vary by firmware generation.
- Correct robot parameter and macro files must be retained or loaded when replacing a controller.
- V4.24A does not establish the attached robot model, axis population, pre-aligner support, external I/O configuration, or electrical rating.
- A compatible replacement requires the controller label, robot identity, firmware requirement, and system-specific file set.
