You can set your mask test to be True for waveforms All In, All Out, Any In, or Any Out. For example,
if you select All In, the test will be False if even a single waveform falls outside the mask.
Masks that you create from your waveform can be confined to just a portion of the trace by use of a
measure gate. (See Measure Gate for an explanation of how this feature works.)
Actions
By touching the Stop Test checkbox
in the
"Actions" dialog, you can set up the test to end after a predetermined number of sweeps that you
decide.
You can also decide the actions to occur upon your waveforms' passing or failing, by selecting one
or all of the following:
• stop
• audible alarm
• print image of display
• emit pulse
• save waveform
The selection Pulse
causes a pulse to be output through the Aux Out connector at
the front of the scope. This pulse can be used to trigger another scope. You can set the amplitude
and width of the pulse as described in Auxiliary Output Signals.
Depending on your scope model, you can configure up to 8 pass/fail conditions. The Boolean
conditions to determine if your waveform passes are as follows:
All True All False
Any True Any False
All Q1 to Q4 Or All Q5 to Q8 Any Q1 to Q4 And Any Q5 to Q8
Setting Up Pass/Fail Testing
Initial Setup
1. Touch Analysis in the menu bar, then Pass/Fail Setup... in the drop-down menu.
2. Touch the Actions tab.
3. Touch the Enable Actions checkbox. This will cause the actions that you will select to
occur upon your waveform's passing or failing a test.
