3.6.7 TOOLS
→ TEST → FACTORY TEST
The Factory Test is a Honeywell manufacturing tool that tests all memory locations in the
CM 2000. The test writes several data patterns to each memory location and then reads
the patterns for validation. It is a time-consuming test and is of little value to the field. This
test can be used in the field to clear non-zero data that exists a section of memory that is
not used. This procedure is able to overwrite an existing configuration and, more
importantly, remove an ART stabilization calibration. To avoid this problem, be sure to
check the "Preserve Module Contents" before the test is started.
Select the Test
→ Validate CM 2000 options from the Tools menu to run the Factory Test
operation. A validation window is shown as in Figure 3-13. Push the Partial command
button to open a window that allows the user to specify only the test patterns of interest,
rather than the entire test. Push the Start Test command button to start the test.
