Fail When
The Fail When softkey brings up a second level softkey menu on the display.
The Fail When function allows you to select when the instrument decides that
a test has failed, and what to do with invalid measurements.
The four choices are fail inside the limits, outside the limits, always fail, or
never fail.

or example
,you
may

to
track
a

during
an environmental test while the instrument is running a
measurement for a long time as the temperature or humidity
is changed. Each time the measurement is executed, the
results are logged as determined by the Fail Action softkey.

Fail
Never
F

Never
sets
the
instrument
so
a
measurement
never
fails
on
a
test.
Use
the
fail
never
mode
when
you
want to
observe
one
measurement
but
determine
a
failure
from
a
dierent measurement.
The fail never mode allows you to monitor a measurement
without having to set up any fail criteria.
