Short manual for ditoControl software
(Version
1.20 )
ditoControl is not only a software to control dito and to perform ESD tests automatically, but it is a software
which manages the office work as well as the test itself. The following important steps are covered:
Office work (preparation of the test)
Making „Test Notes“ as preparation for the real test
Description of the DUT
Specification of the test points based on a picture of the DUT.
Description of functions and failure criteria of the DUT.
Specification of the test parameters and the test routine
Specification of auxiliary equipment and special test software used in this test.
Print out of the Test Notes. This document is used to support the operator during the running test.
Comments which are important can be written into and can be added later on into the test report.
Generation of test routines
Based on the Test Notes the test parameters are fixed.
Preprogrammed the test routines based on the data in Test Notes.
The different test routines can be managed by ditoControl (library)
Standard test routines and standard libraries can be built up.
The complete test preparation is made. All data are available on the computer
Laboratory work.
Make dito ready for testing.
dito is connected to the computer and ditoControl is started.
The preprogrammed test files are downloaded to dito. If necessary or useful all other test routines
which are available in dito can be deleted.
The operator can only perform tests for which the related test routines are available. False operation by
the user therefore are not possible.
The operator performs the test at the DUT.
All test data of the actual test are stored in dito.
In case of failures at the DUT the operator can set Fail-Flags, which also are stored in dito.
Comments related to these Fail-Flags can be added manually to the Test Notes and can be later on
entered to the test report at the right place. All Fail-Flags are indicated in the test report.
Office work.
The operator generates a test report.
After the test is finished dito will be connected again to the computer. All test data stored in dito will be
uploaded and are the basis for the test report.
ditoControl automatically generates the test report.
The generated document can be converted into almost all other formats.
Custom specific logos and pictures can be implemented.
The documents and the used test routines can be directly emailed to other dito users or laboratories.
