Editor Settings
The editor has three settings for performing the Kelvin check. They are as follows:
Off – This is the default state and what is used for older programs where the
Kelvin check state is not specified. In this mode, no Kelvin checks are performed.
Ignore Open – This is a relaxed testing mode which requires the Kelvin check to
pass during short circuit compensation, load compensation and test execution.
Open circuit compensation will not have a Kelvin check. This mode
recommended if there is only low frequency testing, as you can simply remove
the fixture to do open circuit compensation.
All – This mode is a strict testing that will execute the Kelvin check before any
compensation or test execution. This mode is recommended to get the best
connection reliability.
Legacy Products (AT3600, ATi)
This test option is not available on the AT3600 or ATi.
However, programs with the Kelvin option enabled can still be used on these
products, but the flag will simply be ignored.
This prevents users from maintaining two separate test programs and maintains
ATP program portability between unit types.
