BT-BASIC commands used

8.10     Some of the most frequently used BT-BASIC commands used are:

msi                              Changes default working directory.

Mass storage is           Same as “msi”

cat                               Catalogs (list)the node names in the specified directory.

            get                               Brings the contents of a file into the system workspace.

            load                             Same as “get”.

            msi$                            Returns the directory pathname of the current working directory.

            msi “..”                       Backs up one directory level.

            findn                           Locates the next occurrence of the a given sting in the workspace.

8.11          If you wish to invoke the HP Board Graphics Viewer, type board graphics at the

BT-BASIC command line and press the “ENTER” key on the keyboard.

8.12          A HP Board Graphics Viewer window should now appear that contains an image of the circuit card being tested.  This window can be use to locate the physical location of devices populating the UUT as well node name information.

8.13          Place the test fixture onto the testhead and type fixture lock at the BT-BASIC command line and press the “ENTER” key on the keyboard.

8.14          To start UUT testing, type run on the command line of the BT-BASIC window and press the “ENTER” key of the key board. Or, you may click the mouse on the “START” button

on the operator keypad window.

8.15          The BT-BASIC window will now display a message similar to that shown in figure 9,

shown below.

8.16          The operator should carefully follow all on-screen instructions to properly test the UUT.

NOTE:           Sometimes special operator options are built into the UUT test program to speed up the debug process.  These options allow the operator to skip over portions of the test.  These skip test options should not be used until all tests with in that group have passed.
