How to Test

 
The IFD™ TE is to be used as test equipment ONLY
and it must NOT be used to provide sole proof of circuit safety or its safe operation.
 
This topic covers all IFD™ Testing and the immediate Results obtained from each specific test.  To carry out IFD™ Testing, login to NODES™ and from the NODES™ Options or UUT Add/Edit select Tests.
 
From the Tests form, the User can select the UUT to test and the specific test to perform.  NODES™ will then carry out a number of checks before performing any testing, including:
 
Ø     A check of the UUT and then validate the Test Point Data, see Validation Rules.
 
Ø      A check of the resolution of any computer/display screens connected to ensure that all displays are optimised for the User in relation to the system being operated.
 
Ø      If left over from a previous test, it will prompt the User to save test data.
 
Once the test has been selected, and the above checks performed successfully, control is passed to Tests functions.
 
 
NODES™ cannot be accessed while any type of  IFD™ Testing is being carried out; do NOT try and open or close NODES™ or use Ctl-Alt-Del to 'End Task' while testing is being carried out.
