Set Process Parameters in the Procedure Table
Creating a Practice Test Procedure 166
Note This Group is done when trigger selection ends Group process activity,
but may leave the fan in a running condition at the end of test. There are
a number of ways to design the procedure to ensure that the fan stops
when the test stops, but to minimize complexity they are not included in
this example.
For more information For information on how to choose specific Start and Interrupt triggers for
individual processes, see
“About Sequencing Processes” on page 87.
