How to Set Up Detectors

1. Use Station Setup or one of the methods to access the detector settings.

2. Set up each detector.

Error Detectors—set the Inner and Outer error values and their associated Actions.

Limit Detectors—set the Upper and Lower limit values and their associated Actions.

Detector settings (limits and actions) for a particular test can be saved in a parameter set.

How to Reset Detectors

To reset a detector that has tripped:

1. Determine the event that caused the detector to trip and fix the problem.

2. Click Reset on the Station Controls Panel.

If the event that caused the detector to trip is within the detector limits, the detector indicators and any
action assigned to that detector will be reset and returned to the normal (untripped) state.

If the event that caused the detector to trip is still true, the detector will trip and any action assigned to
that detector will occur again.

Detector Actions

You can assign the following actions to limit and error detectors. If the limit or error detector setting is exceeded
during a test, the selected action occurs and the indicator changes state.
