back at measurement of the channel.
Checking the operation of handler interface
You can check the operation through outputting the given signal into handler interface or monitoring
the input signal.
Handler interface test menu is as follows:
OFF|ON|ER Output Input
TEST:OFF Bbb Ee Mm TRGt RCLsss VLDv LOCk Signal monitor
0)OFF 1)ON 2)ER 3)BIN 4)ERR 5)EOM Output control
OFF Disables the test mode and performs usual operation. (Default value)
ON Enables the test mode.
Outputs a test signal instead of a usual signal.
ER Changes only /ERR to the test mode.
/ERR can be used as a general-purpose port.
However, the normal error status is not output.
The following operations work only when the test mode is enabled.
BIN The comparison output is made into the low level one at a time.
For details, refer to “Dummy output signal” below.
ERR Inverts /ERR.
EOM Outputs dummy /INDEX and /EOM signals.
For details, refer to “Dummy output signal” below.
Perform the EXIT operation to return to the measurement screen.
When ON is selected, the output signal is initialized to the state when the comparator is disabled. The
test signal is operated with BIN/ERR/EOM on the menu. ZM2376 ignores the input signal and
operates as if nothing is connected to the handler interface. Lock by /KEY_LOCK signal is also
released.
When ER is selected, only /ERR is initialized to the state when the comparator is disabled. /ERR
signal is operated with ERR in the above menu. Operation of BIN and EOM are unavailable. Input
signals and output signals except /ERR operate usually.
It is recommended to change the test mode while the comparator and limit comparison are disabled.
When the test mode is switched from ON or ER to OFF while the comparator is enabled (the normal
operation), each output returns to normal. When switched from ON to ER, the output except /ERR
returns to normal in the same way.
When the test mode is set to OFF while the comparator is disabled, the output returns to normal at
that time. When switched from ON to ER, the output except /ERR returns to normal at that time.
