Sweep branching
When using a Source Memory Sweep while performing limit tests, the normal
sequence of sweep memory points can be changed. This is useful when, based
on the results of an initial test, a different set of tests are needed.
The sweep can branch to a specified memory location point, or proceed to the
next memory location in the list. When a memory location is specified, the sweep
will branch to that memory location if the test is successful (PASS condition). If not
successful (FAIL condition), the sweep proceeds to the next memory location in
the list. With NEXT selected (the default), the sweep proceeds to the next memory
location in the list regardless of the outcome of the test (PASS or FAIL condition).
Figure 10-3 shows a six-point sweep branching example. In this case, the unit is
programmed to branch to location 7 when a pass conditions occurs at location 3.
