Fault Location
Selections Factory Default
ON or OFF ON
Fault Location determines which end of the cable first displays open, short, or miswire in the
tested assembly.

When Fault Location is ON, the tester will display an asterisk next to the pin or pins
closest to the open or short.

When Fault Location is OFF, the fault location information will not be displayed.
Because finding fault locations with the tester takes more time, only the fault locations of the first
five errors will be displayed. If fault locations are required for more than five errors, the operator
corrects the errors listed and retests the assembly. The tester locates opens using capacitance
and shorts using resistance. For examples of errors where
Fault Location is used, see Shorts
on page 52 and Opens on page 53.
Note: For Fault Location to work well, the custom test fixturing should be no greater than one-
half the length of the wires in the tested device.
Auto Start
Selections Factory Default
YES or NO NO
Auto Start allows you to have the tester automatically start testing when turned on.

If Auto Start is ON, the tester will automatically start testing using the loaded test in
memory.

If Auto Start is OFF, the tester screen will show the main menu.
This feature can be helpful when the tester is built into automated test equipment where the
tester interface cannot be easily accessed.
If you need to access the normal tester interface once
Auto Start has been turned on, you may
do so by turning on the tester and pressing CANCEL before the Auto Test countdown expires.
