3.1.2. S
With this function enabled, the tester will stop program execution whenever a fail is
detected, rather than carrying out all the tests in the test program and reporting the
passes and fails at the end.
This enables the user to quickly identify a faulty transformer and replace it with
another before all the tests have been carried out, thus speeding up the test process.
When a fail is encountered, the tester will display a warning screen and stop the
program. The display will inform the user of a test failure, and indicate which limits
have been exceeded.
An example of this display for an inductance test is shown below.

From this display, after you have pressed the CONTINUE soft-key, the tester will
execute the remaining tests in the program, and the transformer will be recorded as a
fail. (If any further tests fail, then there will be another display similar to the one
above for each failing test.)
If you simply wish to throw away the failing transformer at the earliest opportunity,
then press the ABORT soft-key to terminate this program run, and return to the RUN-
FINISH display, from where you can start the program again for the next transformer
in the batch.
Alternatively, you may use the RE-RUN soft-key if, for example, the failure is due to
the fact that the transformer is not correctly inserted in the test fixture. In this case,
program execution starts again, and the transformer will receive a 'pass', if the only
fault was that it had been wrongly inserted at the first attempt.
After you have pressed the RE-RUN soft-key, the tester will then be executing a
'retry'. When results are sent to the Server, unless you have enabled the program
option 'Send Retry Results to Server', then no result will be sent to the Server Results
