Chapter 8

Defining Strings for Serial Ports and Viewports

8–22

During run mode, upon completion of an inspection, the CVIM checks the
specified event source to see if it has met the specified source condition. If
this occurs, the string is transmitted (an exception is if an interval has been
set – setting the interval is described later in this section).

For example, you can select

Gage 1

as the event source, then select

Print on

FAIL

as the source condition, as shown below:

Print on FAIL selected
as source condition

Gage 1 selected as
event source

With the

Event

specified as shown, the CVIM module checks gage 1, the

event source, upon completion of an inspection, to see if it has failed, and
thus met the source condition. If gage 1 failed, the string is transmitted. If
gage 1 passed the inspection, the string is not transmitted for that inspection.
