Cirris 4200 Series User Manual
Soak Until Good: Applies a voltage to the cable until the tester measures IR values that exceed the IR minimum resistance
or reaches the IR (Max) Soak Time.
● ON: Applies voltage until the tester measures IR values that exceed the IR minimum resistance (i.e. could take less
time than Max Soak Time).
● OFF: Always applies voltage for duration of IR (Max) Soak Time.
10.4 Options
■ Apply High Voltage to: This setting determines which test
points get high voltage applied to them during the high voltage test.
● All Adapter Pins: All test points in the tester interface con-
nectors will be involved in the test, regardless of whether they
have connections to other points in the test.
● Connections Only: High Voltage is applied only to test points
that have connections dened in the test program.
■ Allow High-Cap Shield: This option allows the user to
continue high voltage testing a device that would normally fail the
test due to a single over-current error. This error is presumed to be
caused by a highly capacitive shield around the device.
● YES: Test continues with a single over-current error.
● NO: Test fails when any error occurs, regardless of the cause.
Note: High Cap Shield is available to assist with highly capacitive shields, which would fail with standard high voltage
settings. By turning on the High Capacitance Shield setting you can successfully test a cable with a high capacitive shield.
■ High-Speed Mode: The HV test applies a voltage to multiple nets simultaneously while still ensuring that each net
is tested against every other net, thus speeding up the test process. If an error is found, each net is tested individually to
locate the exact net that has the error.
● ON: Tester applies HV to nets in groups for faster testing.
● OFF: Tester applies HV to each net one at a time while all other nets are pulled to ground.
WARNING! High-Speed Mode with highly capacitive devices can slow testing. Highly capacitive nets may cause over-
current failures, meaning the nets will need to be tested individually. This could cause the test to slow down signicantly.
High Voltage Options
Apply High VOltage To:
All Adapter Pins
Allow High-Cap Shield:
NO
High-Speed Mode:
OFF
Apply high voltage to all adapter pins, or just to pins included
in nets.
Allow one highly capacitive net, such as a shield, to pass the
high voltage test.
Employ an algorithm to speed the HV Test, but still ensure
every net is tested to every other.
