RAMCHECK LX OWNER’S MANUAL 5. ADVANCED TESTS
5. ADVANCED TESTS
RAMCHECK LX advanced tests are essentially made by changing the setup.
While most casual and non-technical users may not need to use RAMCHECK
LX’s setup feature, you can get the most from your unit by reviewing the
material presented in this section.
RAMCHECK LX
has a built-in
EEPROM device
which stores your
setup. Therefore,
when you turn your
RAMCHECK LX on,
the unit
“remembers” its last
setup.
5.1 ADVANCED SETUP OVERVIEW
RAMCHECK LX Advanced Setup mode lets you do the following:

Preset a fixed speed (RAS access time or SDRAM Frequency Rate)
reference so that all memory slower than the reference will be failed. This
is different than the default mode, which automatically displays the actual
speed.

Preset a fixed refresh value for modules that you wish to have tested at
various refresh rates.

Preset a fixed module (or chip) size so that all tested memory will fail if it is
not of this type (as opposed to the default mode which automatically detects
the module size).

Customize the Test Flow by selectively skipping various test modes and
phases.

Change the values of the Row Address Hold Time and the RAS to CAS
delay time.

Take an in-depth look at the operation of the automatic Access Time
algorithm [performance].

Repair bad modules faster.
Press any key (except
ESC) if you wish to
skip the SETUP
initial graphic screen.
