The first record of this file is:
“ETS9910PS” <TAB> #
-of-steps <TAB> description <RETN>
The following records each contain a pair of numbers representing a connection to device pins:
TestPin# <TAB> ReturnPin# <RETN>.
Example:
ETS9910PS <TAB> 25 <TAB> Test#5 for modem 3324-hx <RETN>
1 <TAB> 2 <RETN>
3 <TAB> 2 <RETN>
7 <TAB> 2 <RETN> ……..etc. –
25 pairs.
Remember to verify that the “#
-of-
steps” parameter in the first record agrees with the script
length.
5.6 The Voltage Script
Each time PinScan connects to a pair of pins, it consults the Voltage Script (a.k.a. VScript) to
determine the voltage necessary for discharges. The VScript is a list of the voltage levels to be
applied to each pair of pins. PinScan will accept Voltage numbers up to 8000, however anything
outside the stated range for the present model (MM: 1,000V and HMM: 5,000V) will be limited
to the maximum for the range.
On the Script Entry screen, the present Voltage Script is
displayed. Use the slider at the right of the list to navigate
up and down.
To change the script, simply use the cursor and keyboard
to edit the voltage numbers. New steps can be added to the
test by adding the voltage numbers at the end of the list.
You will see the length of the list increase.
The script can be shortened by placing a zero after the desired last entry. This and subsequent
steps will not be performed, and the length of the list will decrease accordingly.
The Voltage Script is identified by a 4-digit VScript number, and saved in a file on C:\ETS with
the name ETS9910VSxxxx.TXT (“xxxx” denotes the
VScript number.) This text file is easily
ported into excel or edited directly using notepad or a similar test editor.
