ES601Plus OPERATING MANUAL
6.2.3 Tester AutoSequences
ES601Plus provides automated test sequences for medical device analyzers and testers such as IV
Pump Testers, Pulse Oximeter Testers, Defibrillator Testers, ESU Testers, NIBP Testers, plus many
others. To accommodate any make or model of test equipment you may own, ES601Plus provides
five sets of User-Defined Tester AutoSequences, which you can arbitrarily program as desired using
the AutoSequence Editor of ES601pc. For each of the User-Defined Testers, ES601Plus provides
you with 12 programmable AutoSequences.
A Tester AutoSequence can comprise from 1 to 24 steps, where each step corresponds to an
ES601Plus Instruction. Typically, Tester AutoSequences will be composed of ES601Plus re m o te
c o n tro l Instructions. In setting up a Tester AutoSequence, you will also select which ES601Plus
Te s te r Po rt will interface with your external analyzer, and the b au d rate to be used for RS232 serial
communications with your analyzer. These selections are made with the AutoSequence Editor of
ES601pc.
A Tester AutoSequence cannot include an ES601Plus Safety AutoSequence or ECG AutoSequence;
to include a safety and/or ECG test within the scope of another automated test requires you to set
up a full Test Procedure.
6.2.4 Test Procedures
Test Procedures are created using the Test Procedure Editor of the ES601pc software package. A
Test Procedure can comprise from 1 to 96 steps, where each step corresponds to an ES601Plus
Instruction.
In addition to individual Instructions, Test Procedures can also incorporate General Inspections and
Tester AutoSequences, provided the total number of steps created by including such automated tests
in a Procedure does not exceed 96. Additionally, any o n e of the Test Procedure steps can optionally
be a Safety AutoSequence, and any o n e of the steps can optionally be a ECG AutoSequence. A Test
Procedure cannot have more than one Safety AutoSequence, or more than one ECG AutoSequence.
