Appendix A
Sequence Operation
A-1 INTRODUCTION This appendix provides description of the Seq (Sequence) key function
and procedures for its use.
A-2 DESCRIPTION Sequence enables users to automate a repetitive testing task. A
sequence is created by recording a series of keystrokes. After a
sequence is created, users can execute these keystrokes by pressing a
single key. Sequence also offers subroutine and sequence flow control
mechanisms to increase the flexibility of test sequences.
The program listing for a sequence appears in a 2-5/8 x 1-3/4 inch box
in the middle of the display. The box appears after pressing the Seq
key and the EDIT SEQUENCE, SEQUENCE X soft keys (Figure A-1).
Up to seven independent sequences may be active at any given time.
Sequences are saved in non-volatile memory. The size of a sequence is
