2.3.3 RUNNING A PROGRAM ON THE TESTER
Having stored the program in the server archive, it is now possible to run the program
on your AT3600 in the same way that you would use in production test. (If you do
not intend to use the server see also section 2.3.4 - Additional topics to investigate).
Before proceeding further, it may be worth pointing out the main features of the
tester’s front panel, which will be used in running the program:
• The LCD display prompts for and provides relevant information.
• The alphanumeric keypad allows you to enter text data such as the part number
(i.e. test program name) of the transformer to be tested.
• The ‘Backspace’ key allows you to correct typing errors during data entry.
• The four ‘soft-keys’ adjacent to the LCD are provided for functions which vary
with different aspects of the tester’s operation. The function for each soft-key at
any given time is shown in the text boxes at the right hand side of the LCD.
(Also before proceeding further make sure that the Server is running, with the
interface cable correctly fitted between the tester’s Server Port and the selected
Server PC COM Port, and the COM Port correctly configured in the Server
software (see page 2.2.8.).
At this point the AT3600 Tester should be still powered on, the display should still
show a ‘last transformer’ message, produced when the test program was run from the
Editor. It will be similar to the following:
Backspace key
RUN Indicator
PASS Indicator
FAIL Indicator
Soft-keys
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
