About Limit Modes

This process supports relative limits (starting when the process begins) and
absolute limits (from a zero reference).

Example

Assume the test command ramps from 1 cm to 4 cm. An absolute limit value of 2
cm ends the process at 2 cm. A relative limit ends the process at 3 cm (2 cm
relative to 1 cm).

How to Use Actions with Processes

The Station Manager includes an Event-Action Editor that lets you create user
defined actions that you can link to test events.

The user defined actions that you create with the Station Manager, in addition to
some built-in actions (Interlock, Station Power Off, Program Interlock, Program
Stop, and Program Hold) are now available in the Action list boxes in the Data
Limit Detector, Digital Input Detector, and Program Control processes.

How to create actions

when MPT is running

To define actions with the Station Manager Event-Action Editor (in the Tools
menu), you must have the Configuration access level selected. To select the
Configuration access level, you must quit MultiPurpose TestWare, and any
other applications that may be running, such a Basic TestWare. Once you have
quit the applications, you can select the Configuration access level and define
actions as desired with the Event-Action Editor. Then, before you relaunch
MultiPurpose TestWare, you must select any other access level other than
Configuration.

The user defined actions you have defined will appear in the Action list boxes in
the Data Limit Detector, Digital Input Detector, and Program Control processes.
