Getting Started and Using Masks

To stop the Mask Test on the first failure

To stop the Mask Test on the first failure

1Access the Mask Test Setup dialog box and make sure the mask test is enabled.

2Click Stop On Failure to checkmark the box.

3 Run the mask test.

When the mask test encounters the first failure, the test will stop and the failure result will be displayed in the Mask Test tab description area.

Analyzing a failure

If your waveform crosses the boundary of the mask violation region, the waveform cross-over areas will be displayed in red. All waveform locations displayed in red indicate that the waveform fails the mask test in these areas. If the waveform just “touches” the boundary, the mask test fails.

Standard masks and the designated violation regions are shown in chapter 3.

When you start the mask test with Stop On Failure enabled, if Infiniium encounters a failure, the oscilloscope acquisition system will be stopped.
