Quick Start
2.2.11 Start Options
The Sprint iQ has options that modify the way it accepts the start
input. These options are useful for integrating the Sprint iQ with
fixtures that seal on the test part.
Start Options are first categorized as being Local (Front Panel) or
Remote (digital inputs on the back panel). This option category is
mutually exclusive in that front panel push-buttons are ignored
totally when the Remote Option is selected, and vice versa.
2.2.11.1 Local Start Option
The Local Start Option enables the two front panel push-button
switch for starting and stopping a test. The green button starts the
test. The red button stops or aborts the test.
2.2.11.2 Remote Start Option
The Remote Start Option enables three digital inputs for
controlling how the test is started and stopped. The name of the
three digital inputs and their description is:
1. Remote Start: a closure that starts the test
2. Remote Start Enable: a closure that indicates a condition
that it is safe to start a test (optional dependent on Remote
Start Policy)
3. Remote Stop: a closure that aborts the test (optional)
The operations of these three inputs are modified by the Remote
Start Policy that has been selected. There are three remote start
policies:
1. Fixture Lid Start
2. Interlock
Start
3. Anti-Tie-Down
