Creating NMT Tests
Tests can be created and saved using any of these methods:
•
Writing programs on a connected external controller, downloading them into the Test
Set's IBASIC RAM, and then storing them on mass storage.
•
Using the TESTS screen's IBASIC Controller and the cursor-control knob to enter pro-
grams line-by-line into IBASIC RAM, and then saving them on mass storage.
•
Using the TESTS screen's IBASIC Controller and a connected terminal to enter pro-
grams line-by-line into RAM, and then saving them on mass storage.
•
Using an IBASIC program that creates a file to output program commands.
Entering Tests Into The Decoder's RAM
NMT commands are entered into the decoder's RAM using any of these methods:
•
Using the Load Test field to load an existing test from mass storage.
•
Using a connected terminal or cursor-control knob to directly enter commands into the
decoder's NMT Test Entry field.
•
Using an IBASIC program that outputs commands to the NMT Test Entry field.
The most efficient method is to use a connected computer to write the program,
store the program on a memory card, and then select the test from the memory
card using the decoder's
field.
