Diagnostics

If any failure(s) or problem(s) are found in a valid diagnostic file, the menu item

‘Report Details’ will be enabled to show some details about those tests. See

item ‘Report Details’ for more information.

If the diagnostic file is examined, and no fails or other problems were found

with this test, the ‘Results:’ box will display the message: “No Problem

Found” on a green background. The proper configuration for the Testhead

will be displayed, but the menu item ‘Report Details’ will be disabled, since

there are no failing tests on which to display information.

View Log File

- Selecting this menu item opens a file selection window

showing the available files, similar to the ‘Open for EXam’ item. Selecting a

filename here will start the Microsoft Windows text editor program ‘WordPad’

and open the diagnostic file for viewing. Here, individual test results may be

viewed to provide further possible insight into any problems with the tester.

Viewing the individual failures of a test may aid in troubleshooting an

individual board. Examining any system error messages and referring to

documentation for the source and/or meaning of the error may also help in

resolving the problem with the tester resources. While viewing this file, the

user may also elect to print the file contents.

IMPORTANT!! The file being examined SHOULD NOT be edited. Changing

any information in these files could render the information inaccurate or

useless for diagnosing any problems with the tester.

Report Details

- This menu item is only available while there is a valid

diagnostic file with fail information opened for examination. ‘Report Details’

is a listing of the individual Selftest programs that show at least one fail or

system error during its execution.

Selecting this menu item will

bring up a separate window

with a list of the failed test

programs. This list gives the

name of the Selftest which had

the problem, the slot number of

the board being examined by

that test, and whether the problem with the test was a test fail or a system
