Repeat measurement is performed as shown in this flowchart. The status is a response returned by
the start/iteration procedure. The Count is the accumulated number of test executions. They are the
stop condition of the repeat measurement.
The repeat measurement stop function is enabled by the following check boxes.
•Counter reaching to
•Procedure return condition
If the first box is checked and the limit value is specified, the repeat measurement will be stopped if
Count >= limit. To perform the repeat measurement, set the limit value more than the number of
devices under test or remove check from this box.
If the second box is checked, the repeat measurement will be stopped if status = True.
When the second box is checked, the device ID automatic setup function is available and is
enabled/disabled by using the following check box. The function enters the device_id value to the
Device ID of the test result record. The device_id is a response returned by the start/iteration/subsite
procedure.
•Automatically fill in Device ID
The Repeat Measurement Setup dialog box provides the following action buttons.
•Run: Starts repeat measurement.
•Abort: Stops repeat measurement immediately.
•Cancel: Closes the Repeat Measurement Setup dialog box.
Start/Iteration/Final Procedure:
Enter the full path name of the procedure. For example, enter as follows.
C:\Program Files\Agilent\B1500\EasyEXPERT\Utilities\ProberControl\suss\Start_suss.exe
Arguments:
Enter the options of the procedure. See the following pages describing about procedures. For
example, enter –a GPIB0::5::INSTR –l C:\temp\prb.log.
If you use the sub die move operation (subsite procedure), the flowchart must be changed. See page
11-18.
