Within seconds, the complete set of continuities is stored in memory. Each continuity has a FROM point and a TO point, with each point expressed as a tester interface location. The newly calculated signature can then be compared to the original signature recorded for that assembly. When User Labels are assigned, all displays and printouts will show them in lieu of tester point numbers. The 3 -inch floppy diskette may store up to 112 programs.
Additional storage is available by PC if that option is utilized.
TEST TEST mode performs a scan of the assembly circuits to detect Opens or Shorts. If an Open or Short is detected, the scan stops and the FROM and TO points for that circuit are displayed, along with an O for Open or an S for Short. Pressing TEST will resume scanning. When LOOP is selected, the same test scan is recycled over and over. As successive scans are run, the circuits may be flexed and vibrated to reveal intermittent faults.
