Understanding Test Design Files

MTS Series 793 Software offers several applications you can use to create test
design files. When you save test design files, they are automatically stored in the
current Project.

Note

The Basic TestWare application is the only test design application that
comes standard with Series 793 Software.

Profile Editor
application

You create Profiles with the Profile
Editor. Profiles are custom
waveforms you play out in MPT Test
Procedures. The Profile Editor is a
stand-alone application (you do not
open it against a station
configuration), though you must be
aware of station resources when
designing Profiles.

You can purchase specialized
processes for MPT which you can
combine with standard MPT
processes. This allows you to create
Test Procedures with unique
capabilities.

Basic TestWare
application

Test files

You create Test files with Basic
TestWare, which you can use to
create simple monotonic and cyclic
test designs. You select the Basic
TestWare application within the
Station Manager application, which
opens against the current station
configuration.

You create Test Procedures with MPT
processes, which are modular test
activities you can use to create
complex test designs. You select MPT
within the Station Manager
application, which opens against the
current station configuration.
