GPT-9000 Series Quick Start Guide OPERATION Menu Tree This section describes the overall structure of the operation statuses and modes for the GPT-9000 safety testers. The testers have two main testing modes (MANU, AUTO) and 5 main operation statuses (VIEW, EDIT, READY, STOP and TEST).
OPERATION VIEW Status Description VIEW status is used to select a manual test in the MANU mode or an automatic test/step in AUTO mode. VIEW status will display all the parameters of the current test. VIEW status is also used to put the tester into MANU or AUTO mode. AUTO number MANU number AUTO= 0 0 1 - 0 0 2 A U T O _ N AME MANU = * * * - 0 0 2 MA NU _ N AME FREQ= 6 0 H z H I S E T = 0 1 . 0 0mA 0 100 A CW D CW kV RAMP I R mA =000 . 1S GB VIEW status RE F # = 0 0 .
GPT-9000 Series Quick Start Guide Go to EDIT Status Press the EDIT/SAVE key. EDIT/SAVE Go to READY Status Press the STOP button when a MANU test or AUTO test has been selected. STOP AUTO/MANU Mode Description MANU mode is used to create and execute manual tests. AUTO mode is used to create automatic tests that execute up to 16 steps (manual tests) sequentially. AUTO mode AUTO= 0 0 1 - 0 0 2 MANU mode MANU = * * * - 0 0 2 MA NU _ N AME FREQ= 6 0 H z H I S E T = 0 1 .
OPERATION EDIT Status Description MANU MODE EDIT status is accessed by pressing the EDIT/SAVE key when in VIEW status. EDIT status is used to edit the current manual test or the automatic test. Pressing the EDIT/SAVE key again will save any changes. Pressing the ESC key will cancel any changes. MANU number Reference I or Ω MANU test name ARC status Frequency Test voltage MANU = * * * - 0 0 2 MANU _ NAME FREQ= 6 0 H z H I S E T = 0 1 . 0 0mA 0 100 A CW Test function AUTO MODE RAMP I R mA =000 .
GPT-9000 Series Quick Start Guide Set the Test Voltage/Current (MANU mode only) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to bring the cursor to the Test voltage/Current. Use the scroll wheel to set the voltage/current. Choose HI/LO SET limits (MANU mode only) Press the HI/LO soft-key or use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose either HI or LO SET. Use the scroll wheel to edit the setting. H I / LO OR Ramp Time (MANU mode only) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to bring the cursor to Ramp time.
OPERATION Reference (MANU mode only) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to bring the cursor to REF#. Use the scroll wheel to set the reference. For GB tests, the ZERO function can be used to automatically set a reference offset to compensate for the resistance of the test leads (see page 13). Frequency (ACW, GB/MANU mode only) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to bring the cursor to FREQ. Use the scroll wheel to set the test frequency (ACW and GB mode only).
GPT-9000 Series Quick Start Guide Add a Test to the AUTO Test (AUTO mode only) Use the DOWN arrow key to bring the cursor to MANU number. Use the scroll wheel to select a MANU test number. Press the ADD soft-key to add the test as the last step of the AUTO test. ADD READY Status Description The tester is put into READY status when the STOP button is pressed while in VIEW status. When the tester is in READY status, it is ready to begin testing.
OPERATION WARNING WARNING If Double Action is active, the START button must be pressed 500ms after the STOP button was pressed to be able to start testing. If INTERLOCK is set to ON and the interlock connector is not connected to the SIGNAL I/O port, INTERLOCK OPEN will be displayed on the screen, preventing the test from starting. See page 18 for the Common Utility settings. Return to VIEW Status Press the MANU/AUTO key when in READY status to return to VIEW status.
GPT-9000 Series Quick Start Guide Get Test Results Wait for the MANU/AUTO test to finish. Abort MANU Test/AUTO Test Press the STOP button The tester will go into the STOP status. NOTE STOP If PASS/FAIL HOLD is active, the START button can be used to continue to the next step in AUTO mode whereas the STOP button can be used to cancel the test in AUTO mode. Results Results When the tester is allowed to run to completion, a MANU test or AUTO test result is shown as a PASS or FAIL.
