The second method you can use to run simultaneous test scripts is to use groups with a single
TSP-Link network. Each group on the TSP-Link network can run a test while other groups are running
different tests.
A group consists of one or more nodes with the same group number. The following figure displays a
single TSP-Link network with groups. This method requires one TSP-Link network and a single GPIB
connection to the computer.
Figure 120: Single TSP-Link network with groups
The following table shows an example of the functions of a single TSP-Link network. Each group in
this example runs a different test script than the other groups, which allows the system to run multiple
tests simultaneously.
