Auto Mode Sequencer Options

Use the Auto Mode Sequencer if a testing session requires running different modes automatically. You can select any of the three modes for the first, second and third sequences. It can be the same mode for all three sequences. You can specify one of the modes and leave the other two sequences as None. This will result in running only one mode for loop number of times.

Note-At least one sequence must have a mode specified. If no modes are selected for the sequence, the sequencer will behave as if it is set to off, even if the sequencer option is set to on.

When testing is started with the Auto Mode Sequencer, if the testing incurs an error in any of the modes in the sequence, the Auto Mode sequencer will halt and will not switch to the next mode in the sequence. This allows you to analyze the test error. If the testing had continued without halting, the error might occur without notice.

To Edit Auto Mode Sequencer Options
Use the sequencer to determine the sequence of tests in auto mode. By default, the Sequencer is switched off (set to Disable).

1. Set the Sequencer option to Enable.
2. Select the modes.
   • First - Choose one of the three modes that will run first. By default, the option is set to None.
   • Second - Choose one of the three values that will run second. By default, the option is set to None.
   • Third - Choose one of the three values that will run third. By default, the option is set to None.
3. Provide value for Loop attribute. Loop determines the number of times the sequence will run. Specify a numerical value for this option. The default value is 1. The maximum value is 99999.
4. Click OK to apply the changes.
