Active Mode Emulator Test G
Verify TP1 Timeout Error
Why we run this test:
The E84 Specification defines TP1 as the maximum time between L_REQ / U_REQ ON and TR_REQ ON (Table 8).
Section 6.3 specifies that equipment should inform the operator about handoff timeout errors. Additionally, in section
A1-4.71 requires that the equipment display details about the timeout error including: Timer name, Timer Description and
current Timer setting.
This test will force a TP1 timeout error by advancing the handoff up to the point where the equipment is expecting the
TR_REQ signal to turn ON. At this point, the HHT locks its outputs and displays a timeout dialog box. This timeout box
counts down from the TP1 value set on the Configuration Screen. When the counter reaches zero, the timeout should have
expired on the equipment.
The HHT requires the operator to visually inspect the equipments GUI to verify that an appropriate timeout error message
has been displayed. After the operator passes, or fails the test based on the visual display of an error message, the HHT
checks the HO_AVBL signal. When the timeout occurs, the the HO_AVBL signal should turn OFF. If the operator passes
the test based on the display of an error message, but the equipment fails to turn OFF the HO_AVBL signal, the HHT will
fail the test.

Active Mode Static Tests
The three E84 Emulator Active Mode Static tests are not supported in this HHT Test Suite subset.
Active Mode Static Test A
Verify labeled DB-25 female E84 plug exists
Is a labeled DB-25 female E84 plug (as specified in ISO 4902) present for each Load Port on the
equipment?
Active Mode Static Test B
Verify proper plug location
Are the plugs mounted in the correct location? Figure 1 defines the zone where the plug(s) can
be located. The plug(s) can be mounted anywhere in this zone on the top or top edge of the
equipment.
Active Mode Static Test C
Verify Documented Recovery Procedures Exist
Do documented E84 recovery procedures exist?
Not supported.
