9.8.2.11 Test Description Files – Creating Custom Tests
The 704 option uses a set of configuration files that contain the relevant test descriptions. These
files are contained in the MS704_Rev(A-F) subdirectory of the CIGUI32 application directory.
The contents of these tables is defined by the “MS704_Structure_Tbl_X.ini” configuration files
located in the MS704_Rev(A-
F) directory. “X” references the relevant table.
The test description files used to perform a specific test are listed in the last column labeled “Test
File”. These files must be present in the MS704_Rev(A-F) directory or the user directory.
For customer created tests, these file names can be renamed as needed as long as they are
correctly referenced in the MS704_Structure_Tbl_X.ini configuration files.
Tests can be customized as needed by editing these table configuration and test sequence files.
To do so, create a new subdirectory under the application directory. To access any new sub
directory from within the 704 test window, the directory name must be added to the
“MS704UserTestLibraries.txt” file located in the CIGui32 application directory. This is a simple
text file listing all test description directories available.
Example “MS704UserTestLibraries.txt” file content:
MyNew_DBase
Dummy_Dir_Entry
These two directories listed will now be available for selection from the AirFrame selection in the
704 Test Setup screen.
To facilitate creating new test directories, it is easiest to create a copy of the MS704_RevF
directory first and rename it as required.
9.8.2.12 Test Tables
The tables shown on the next few pages list the test sections covered by the –704 option. Where
relevant, the numbering used matches that of the MIL-STD-704 document. The notes in the right
hand column indicate tests that are either not directly supported or require additional external test
equipment. Test tables are listed by rev and then by power group. The list starts with the most
current rev to date, rev F.
