are deleted by the following operations in the test instrument:
• by receiving selection lists from the PC
(ETC: Device Selection lists Transmit selection lists)
• by receiving new test sequences from the PC
(ETC: Device Test sequences Send test sequences)
• by transmitting the saved data to the test instrument
(ETC: Device Backup/Restore Restore)

Transferring Test Sequences from the PC to the Test Instrument
After activating the ETC command „Device Test sequences
Send test sequences“ all test sequences that have been created
(maximum of 10) are transferred to the connected test instrument.
During the transfer of the
test sequences the
above progress bar-
graph is shown at the
PC screen and the right-
hand image appears on
the display of the test
instrument.
After the data transfer
has been completed,
the display switches to
the storage menu „data-
base“.
By pressing ESC you
proceed to the measure-
ment menu display of the current switch position.
Selecting Switch Position AUTO at the Test Instrument
When the rotary switch is set to AUTO, all existing test sequenes
in the instrument are displayed, see figure 15.1.
If there are no test sequences in the instrument, message „NO
DATA“ appears.
Selecting and Starting a Test Sequence at the Test Instrument
Figure 15.1
Press the START key to launch the selected test sequence (here:
SEQU.1).
When executing a test step of the measurement type, the display
structure known from the individual measurements is shown.
Instead of the storage and battery symbol, the current test step
number is shown in the header (here: step 01 of 06), see figure
15.2. The next test step is shown after pressing the „Save“ key
twice.
Setting Parameters and Limit Values
Parameters and limit values can also be modified while performing
a test sequence or before starting the measurement. This modifi-
cation only affects the active test procedure and is not saved.
Skipping of Test Steps
There are two possibilities to skip test steps and/or individual
measurements:
• Activate test sequence, switch to the right-hand test step col-
umn with the cursor, select the x
th
test step and press key
START.
• Within a test sequence, the navi-
gation menu is activated by press-
ing the navigation key Cursor left-
right. Switch to the previous or
next test step with the cursors
which are now displayed sepa-
rately.
Leave the navigation menu and reactivate the current test step
with ESC.
Interrupt or Abort a Test Sequence
An active sequence is aborted with ESC and subsequent confir-
mation.
When the last test step is completed, the message „Sequence
completed“ is shown. After confirming this message, the start
menu „List of test sequences“ appears on the display.
