• For the Alarm trigger type: The scan sweep is triggered by an alarm that has

tripped. To do this, select the Alarm trigger type in the test setup and assign a

channel to be a trigger. When the scan is started, the Product automatically starts

to monitor the channel set as the trigger for a tripped alarm. Once an alarm is

tripped, the scan sweep starts and runs as directed by the test setup. Scan sweeps

will continue as long as the alarm is tripped. If the alarm is no longer tripped, the

Product will finish the scan in progress then wait for next alarm trip.

a. Configure the applicable channel alarm as previously described.

b. Push

 then push  to start the scan.

• For the Manual trigger type: Push  to start the scan. The scan performs one

scan cycle then stops. Push  again to trigger another scan cycle. At any

time, push  again to stop the test or push  to pause the test. If automatic

recording is set to OFF, push  to record data.

• For the

Automated Test trigger type: Push  then push  to start the

test. The Product reads the setpoint information and automatically starts a scan

sweep when the setpoint parameters (Setpoint, Tolerance, Stability, and

Soaktime) are met. If the Control Source parameter is set to On and the Product

is connected to an external temperature source, the Product sets the temperature

without the need for the user to do so. The scan repeats for the amount of times

set in the Scan Count setting at each setpoint.

View Scan Data and Statistics

The Scan Data feature lets the user see the scan data from the last scan sweep (see

Figure 4-4). This feature is located in the Scan menu (push

 then push ). The

data on this menu updates in real-time. From the Scan Data menu, the user can open a

Statistics menu to view minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation statistics

for each channel (see Table 4-3).

If Mx+B is applied to the channel, an [Mx+B] icon will show next to the channel

number. If an alarm is tripped, the alarm number will show next to the channel as a red

icon and also the measurement value will be red. See Figure 4-4.
