By selecting the TestCasesForSATA.infbd file, you will get an additional library window
with predefined SATA test cases, similar to the following:

Libraries
In addition to general libraries, the application defines device libraries. Each device
library is associated with a specific SAS InFusion box. Each device library opens in a
separate Device Library window and holds up to ten SAS InFusion scenarios for the box.
When you connect to the box and click on the entry for that box in the Device List, the
device library for the box opens automatically.
The scenarios that appear in the device library are those currently stored on the
corresponding box. They were uploaded from the box to your PC when you opened the
device library. You can click on any of the scenarios listed to open it for editing. When you
are finished with your edits, you can use the buttons on the Device Library toolbar to
download the revised scenario.
Test Events
As described, a scenario is a script you create using simple mouse clicks and text entries.
As you work, the script takes shape in the scenario area of the application display. You
can think of the scenario area itself as consisting of two subareas: A Global Rules area
at the top, where you create the Global Rules, and a sequence area beneath the Global
Rules, where you create any sequences. Whether you are creating the Global Rules or
a sequence, the menu-driven interface prompts you to specify the event(s) for which you
want to trigger actions.
While many events are line conditions, an event also can be a condition that occurs within
a SAS InFusion box (for example, detection of a BNC trigger signal from another box).
Table 8 lists supported events. Note that some events are applicable only in the context
of creating sequences (those events appear on the drop-down list only if you are creating
a sequence). Sequences can have multiple states, and they allow branching between
states.
