Chapter 8 Working with Test Sequences
250
When testing video displays, you typically select a format using the Source key, and then
select an image using the Content key. In a production environment, where there might
be a need to test several combinations of formats and images, you can create a test
sequence to automate the process of selecting formats and images. Test sequences
provide a way to progress through a pre-defined sequence of format and images, either
manually or automatically. Multiple test sequences can be stored in the generator and
selected by the operator.
This section describes how to create and run test sequences. New test sequences are
created through the command line interface and stored as XML files. Existing sequences
can be modified by editing the sequence XML files using a text editor. Test sequences can
be activated (run) or deactivated through the generator front panel or the command line
interface.
