Repeat: This operation returns to the beginning of the
test cycle (this could be a prior test sequence or the
beginning of the current test sequence, depending on the
number of branches and subcalls used in the affected
sequences) and repeats all previously executed steps a
single time. Once executed, the sequence continues to
execute all remaining steps after the Repeat command.
To repeat the preceding steps more than once, use the
Loop operation.
Subcall: This operation calls another test that runs as a
sub-sequence. If that sub-sequence includes a Return
command, execution of the primary sequence resumes at
the step following the Subcall step. Use the NavPad to
scroll to the desired Test name and change as
appropriate.
Return: This operation causes execution to resume at
the step immediately following the most recent Subcall.
When occurring in a primary sequence, without a prior
Subcall, Return stops execution of the test sequence.
Return is one of only three operations that may be used
in step 21 of a test sequence.
Loop: This operation causes the unit to repeat all steps
between the Loop operation and the Next operation for
the specified number of counts (maximum of 65,535).
Use the NavPad to set the Count for the total number of
loops.
Use the Next operation after the last step to be repeated.
Once the Loop has completed the set number of counts,
the unit will continue to execute the remainder of the
sequence.
Next: Next is used at the end of a Loop to signify the end
of the looped sequence.
If Next is not preceded by the Loop operation, this is an
INVALID condition. If the program encounters the Next
command under these conditions, the sequence will abort
and the output power to the terminals will be disabled.
Stop: Stops the test sequence execution and retains the
last programmed output value. The Stop operation may
be used in step 21 of a sequence.
Goto: This operation allows the sequence to exit the
existing test sequence and begin another test sequence.
Goto is used to string together multiple sequences for a
single test. The Goto operation may be used in step 21 of
a sequence.
Pause: This operation suspends execution of the
sequence and waits for operator input to press either the
