4.3 Testhead
The testhead is that portion of the tester that
supports the PIN, ASRU and Controller cards.
The testhead is divided into two BANKS and each BANK is divided into two
MODULES, see figure 2 below. Bank 1
contains modules 0 and 1, bank 2 contains modules 2 and 3. The test fixtures are placed on the banks of
the tester and locked down for board testing.
The testhead cards interface to the test fixture through the spring
loaded pogo pin “nails” at the top edge on each of these card types.
4.4 Support Bay
The support bay is a stand-alone cabinet that houses
the power supplies for the Unit Under Test.
This bay also houses the test station power distribution unit and test
station controller on earlier models.
4.5
Emergency Shutdown Switch
The emergency shutdown switch is the large red
button located at the lower left corner on the front of the testhead. It turns off all AC power to the testhead,
and is equivalent to turning off the main circuit breaker on the rear of the
support bay. Press the emergency
shutdown switch if you ever need to power down the testhead and its associated equipment
in an emergency situation.
CAUTION: DO NOT use the emergency shutdown
switch as a substitute for
correct power-down
procedures; i.e., executing the “testhead
power off” command.
Frequent use of the emergency shutdown switch can
cause premature failure of the main circuit breaker on the rear of the support
bay.
To restore power after pressing the emergency
shutdown switch, turn on the main circuit breaker on the rear of the support
bay.
4.6 Guided
Probe
A convenient holder for the guided probe is provided
at the upper corner on the front of the testhead. When not using the guided probe, store it in
its holder.
5.0 POWERING
UP THE TESTER
5.1 Locate the tester circuit breakers, they
are on the rear panel of the power distribution unit,
in the enclosure mounted to the right hand side of
the testhead or in the support bay.
Place the circuit breakers in the “on” position.
5.2 Ensure that the test station controller (Signal Processor Unit,
SPU), located in the
enclosure mounted on the left hand side of the
testhead or in the support bay, is turned on.
Caution: On systems with separate SPU and disk drive
units, turn on the power to the disk drive and peripheral devices prior to
powering up the SPU. Be sure to allow
time for the disk drives to spin up to speed before applying power to the SPU.
5.3 Ensure
that the test station monitor and strip printer are both turned on.
5.2 Ensure
that the UUT power supplies located in the support bay are turned on.
