Setting Pass/Fail Thresholds
The following table provides the default, minimum and maximum
thresholds.
Once the thresholds are set, the application will be able to perform
Pass/Fail tests to determine the status of the various events (pass or fail).
The Pass/Fail test is performed on two occasions:
 when analyzing or reanalyzing a trace
 when you open a trace file
Values that are greater than the predefined thresholds are displayed in
white on a red background in the events table.
The Pass/Fail threshold LED, located on the front of the unit, will also
indicate the status (green for pass, red for fail).
You can also set the application to display pass/fail messages when the
Pass/Fail test is performed.
