Turning ON/OFF limit range
To turn ON/OFF the primary parameter limit range (BIN1 to BIN9), use the following
command.
•
:CALCulate1:COMParator:PRIMary:BIN{1-9}:STATe on page 183
Only BINs set to ON with the above command become the targets of sorting judgment. In
other words, even if the measured result falls within the limit range of a BIN set to OFF, it
will not be sorted to that BIN.
To turn ON/OFF the secondary parameter limit range, use the following command.
•
:CALCulate1:COMParator:SECondary:STATe on page 186
If you specify OFF with the above command, no sorting judgment is made for the
measured result of the secondary parameter. The comparator sorting judgment result is
determined only on the basis of the measured primary parameter result.
Setting the range’s lower and upper limit values
To set the lower limit value and upper limit value of the primary parameter limit range
(BIN1 to BIN9), use the following command.
•
:CALCulate1:COMParator:PRIMary:BIN{1-9}[:LIMIT] on page 182
To set the lower limit value and upper limit value of the secondary parameter limit range,
use the following command.
•
:CALCulate1:COMParator:SECondary:LIMit on page 185
NOTE
If you set the upper limit value to a value equal to or less than the lower limit value, no
limit range is used. Doing this would be equivalent to setting the limit range to OFF.
As shown in
Figure 7-10, “Sorting judgment flow,” on page 83
, the sorting judgment is
performed in increasing order of BIN number. Therefore, when the limit ranges of two
BINs overlap, the result is sorted to the BIN with the smaller number.
For the tolerance mode, the reference value does not need to be within the limit range
(between the lower limit value and upper limit value).
Gaps are allowed between the limit ranges.
WARNING
When the low limit value is greater than the upper limit, a warning message
“improper high/low limits” is displayed.
