Limitations on the Test Conditions in the Steps
You can set test conditions for each step of a program test in the same way as a single test.
However, the following limitations exist.
• The measurement network (NTWK), current measurement mode (MODE), and mea-
surement range (RANGE) settings are common to all steps. You cannot select different
settings for each step.
• Panel memories cannot be recalled.
• The measured values cannot be displayed expanded while the test is in progress.
Interval Time
You can set a pause time (interval) at the end of each step. If the TOS3200 shuts off the EUT
power line during this interval, you can change the test lead connections.
For example, if the interval of step 01 is set to HOLD as shown in the example of Fig. 6-1, the
test will not proceed to step 02 until you press the START switch after the end of the step 01
test. This allows you to change the test lead connection for sure.

Power Supply to the EUT
You can select whether to supply power (OFF) or not supply power (ON) to the EUT during
the interval time.

Moves to step 02 when the

Even if you set LINE BRK (AUTO) to OFF, when the EUT power supply switches from a pos-
itive phase connection to a negative phase connection between steps, the TOS3200 does
not supply power to the EUT. The only way that you can switch the connection is by shutting
off the power supply
