Results and Outputs

The standard Color CVIM asserts an output line only if the tool fails.
Installation of the Color CVIM BLISTER-PAK option, however, adds a new
menu item to the

Envir/Cam

I/O

Output Assignment

Usage

menu, as shown in Figure 8.1. By toggling this menu item, you can select
either the

Active: Fail

output function (the setting in the default

configuration) or the

Active: Pass

output function. For most blister

applications, you should select

Active: Pass

.

When

Active: Fail

is selected (and

Results Trig: Disabled

selected), the

Output Assignment

from the Color CVIM module equipped with the Color

CVIM BLISTER-PAK option behaves exactly as it would with a standard
Color CVIM module; that is, the system asserts an output signal only when a
tool fails. The output line is “off” when the tool passes, and it is “on” when
the tool fails.

When

Active: Pass

is selected, however, the system’s output response is

essentially inverted; that is, it asserts an output line only if the tool passes.
Thus, the output line is “on” when the tool passes, and it is “off” when the
tool fails. (Note that a non–zero

Duration

value, such as 25ms, has the same

effect on the duration of the “on” and “off” states as it does when

Active:Fail

is selected.)

The

Active: Pass

selection affects only the following output assignments:

Results (line is “on” when a tool passes).

Machine Stop (line is “on” in absence of a Machine Stop condition).

Master Range (line is “on” when all tools pass).

Module Busy (line is “on” during module “ready” condition).

Trigger NAK (line is “on” as long as triggers are accepted).
