Small Production Facility
At the other extreme and possibly more suitable for a small production facility
with a single AT series tester and limited or temporary access to a PC:
1. Connect the AT to the PC (running both Editor and Server software)
as shown above when developing the test programs.
2. Download a group of programs from the Server to the AT, where they
will be held in the internal non-volatile memory.
3. Remove the PC, and run all the production test programs from the AT
internal memory.
Advantages
•
Requires only occasional use of a PC (which could be a portable) to develop
test programs and load them into the AT.
•
Test programs can be executed by the AT without the PC attached, which
may be of advantage if the working space is limited.
Limitations
•
Suitable for small numbers of test programs (e.g. <50).
•
Test results cannot be archived to disk, or analysed by other Windows based
applications.
