C-Stop Interlock Note:
The C-Stop Interlock is applicable only to MTS FlexTest
controllers.
A C-Stop (Controlled Stop) Interlock results in the following actions:
• A Program Stop Interlock occurs. The test stops but the station
still has power.
• The Station Manager C-Stop indicator is turned on.
• The Station Manager application logs a message.
• The control channel will execute the user-defined C-Stop action,
which is enabled and configured at Station Manager Tools menu
> Channel Options window > C-Stop tab. You must have
Configuration access level to configure the C-Stop Interlock
action.
Note:
The actions of the C-Stop interlock present a fundamental
difference from the Ramp To and Hold At Level user-defined
actions, which require the Function Generator to be in the run
state to execute. C-Stop does not have this requirement.
The program (test) stops but the station still has power. Program Stop
The program (test) holds with the current command. The station still
has power, and the test can be resumed. Program Hold
These are custom program actions you can create, such as “Turn on
light.” For more information on using the Station Builder application Custom Actions
to add resources to a station configuration, see the MTS Series 793
Control Software Manual.
