All data points of the waveform must be inside the mask to pass the test. Even a single point outside
the mask will cause a failure.
1. Connect the Pass/Fail output signal ( on the rear panel ) to the input terminal of another
oscilloscope.
2. Move the waveform on the screen up, down, or sideways so that any portion of it falls outside of
the Pass / Fail mask. If the interface is operating normally then a pulse will appear on the second
oscilloscope. Adjust the second oscilloscope’s time base and voltage scale as needed. If there
is no viewable pulse on the second oscilloscope then there may be a problem with this function.
