Analysis reliability display
function
Display of reliability of analysis results
• Iteration number [iterations]
• Agreement between measured potential and calculated potential (coefcient of
determination)
Temperature measurement
function
Measurement of the ambient temperature near the test xture (using the Z2001
Temperature Sensor)
Results can be displayed along with measured values on the screen and output to a
le.
Progress display Display of progress in the form of a progress bar
Separate progress bars are shown for potential measurement and analysis.
Condition save function • The application launches with the same conditions that were in effect when it was
last exited.
• Measurement and analysis conditions can be saved to a le and loaded as desired.
File save function • Analysis results le
• Potential le for analysis (can be used in repeated analysis)
• 2D potential distribution le
The user can specify the folder in which les are saved.
Test xture continuity test
function
Test of probes using the probe check board (RM9004 Test Fixture inspection)
• OPEN Inspection
• SHORT Inspection
Identication of probes with continuity defects
