QualiPHY Test Process

Once general system settings are in place, these are the steps for running test sessions.

Set Up Test Session

1. Connect the oscilloscope to the DUT.

2. Access the QualiPHY software to display the framework dialog.

3. If running QualiPHY remotely, click General Setup and open the Scope Selector to

select the correct oscilloscope connection.

4. If you have more than one component activated, click Standard and select the desired

standard to test against. Otherwise, your one activated component will appear as the
default selection.

Note: Although all the QualiPHY components appear on this dialog, only those selected
when installing QualiPHY are enabled for selection.

5. Click the Configuration button and select the test configuration to run. These pre-

loaded configurations are set up to run all the tests required for compliance and provide
a quick, easy way to begin compliance testing.

You can also create custom configurations for internal compliance tests by copying and
modifying the pre-loaded configurations. See

Customizing QualiPHY

for details.

6. Close the Edit/View Configuration dialog to return to the framework dialog.

Run Tests

1. On the framework dialog, click Start to begin testing.

When tests are in progress, this button changes to Stop. Click it at any time to stop the
test in process. You’ll be able to resume from the point of termination or from the
beginning of the test.

2. Follow the pop-up window prompts. QualiPHY guides you step-by-step through each of

the tests described in the standard specification, including diagrams of the connection to
the DUT for each required test mode.

3. When all tests are successfully completed, both progress bars on the framework dialog

are completely green and the message “All tests completed successfully” appears. If
problems are encountered, you’ll be offered options to:

Retry the test from the latest established point defined in the script
Ignore and Continue with the next test
Abort Session
