Pick Up Delay: Address 00A9
This delay allows additional time after the handler has detected the device under the plunger before
turning on the vacuum to pick up the DUT at the start of the test cycle. The delay counts down in HEX, in
10 millisecond steps. This feature applies to Plunge-to-Board and Swing Head changeover kits only.
Stop On Fail Y/N: Address 00AA
30 = Stop on Fail
FF = Run Failed Devices, No Stop
This option allows the handler to Stop on Fail, or not. The handler can either automatically cycle a failed
device into an output tube or the handler can be set to stop. If set to
STOP ON FAIL YES
, then the
handler will stop on a failure and allow the operator to retest the device again and again, as often as
desired. This is very useful when calibrating test fixtures and programs.
Gate Delay: Address 00AB
This delay allows additional time for the test site gate to first open and then secondly, allows additional
time after the handler closes the gate at the end of the test cycle. The delay counts down in HEX, in 10
millisecond steps. This feature applies to Plunge-to-Board changeover kits only.
Double Test Sort: Address 00BC
This address tells the handler which test sorts to double test if desired. A setting of “
00
” will turn
off
the
double test for all sorts. A setting of “
FF
” will set the tester to double test
all
devices. Assuming Sort 1 is
Pass and all other sorts are to be double tested, set this address to “
FE
.” Each bit represents a tester sort.

The handler uses the specifications shown in the table above to assign Output Bins to tester Sorts.
The “Current Setting” column is provided for the customer’s reference purposes. Please enter your
settings in this column.
If the handler does not receive one of the above test Sorts, the handler will pause and display the
message, “
BAD TEST RESULT
.” The handler will output the HEX equivalent of the actual character
received by the handler to the LEDs on the handler’s output shuttle cover. LED #1 is bit 01, LED #8 is bit
80. Pressing the
[Clear]
button on the handler’s front panel will flush the device from the test site and
restart operation. Press
[Enter]
to retest, if desired.
When the handler does receive a proper result in the form of one of the above test Sorts, the handler will
open the test contacts and flash the output cover LED of the output bin selected. The handler will sort the
DUT accordingly and start a new handling cycle.
