dev_abort
This command programmatically ends a test from within the user module (aborts a test) that was started with the
pulse_exec
command.
Usage
int dev_abort(NULL);
Pulsers
4220-PGU
4225-PMU
Pulse mode
Standard and Segment Arb
Details
Use this command to abort a pulse test from in a user module. This command is useful during a
longer
pulse_exec
test. Note that
pulse_exec
is nonblocking, so it is possible to fetch data during
a longer test. An example of this is a long stress/measure test, using
seg_arb_sequence
and
seg_arb_waveform
, that evaluates degradation data intra-test. Evaluating this data from within the
user module may determine that a test should end. For example, if the degradation is greater than ten
percent (>10%), then end the test to save test time.
