INTRODUCTION
The break-out box provides easy access to all signals on the I/O connectors. Using the OP8615 break-
out box, you manually generate circuit faults (open circuit and short circuit) using jumpers to either
break contact or connect a circuit. You can analyse and test electronic equipment by specifically testing
each component and its connection.

By installing the break-out box as a link between the unit under test (ECU, motor controller, etc.) and
the simulator, you can insert a fault at any point in the test to assess how the unit reacts to the fault.
You can check and reconnect signals without changing the existing cable harness.
