REFACE The Z1800-Series Operator’s Guide provides the information you need to operate Z1800- series testers. The procedures outlined here are meant to be performed by persons designated as operators. This manual provides operator safety information, a description of tester hardware, and instructions for operating the tester and interpreting test results.
This chapter identifies tester hazards that operators may encounter. Read this chapter before performing any operations on the tester. Follow the precautions in this chapter during all stages of tester operation. Teradyne does not assume liability for a customer’s failure to comply with established procedures.
Doing so clogs the vacuum and shortens the vacuum pump life. • Z1805, Z1808, Z1880 and Z1890 testers can be tilted up to 15 degrees or be raised up to eight inches. Only qualified maintenance technicians should perform tilt adjustments.
• Partial failure caused by stressing device lands and junctions which degrades electrical performance and increases failure susceptibility. Teradyne offers the following recommendations to help prevent ESD damage. Static Prevention While operating the tester, use the operator’s wrist strap or another approved method of preventing ESD.
SAFETY Safety Symbols and The following symbols appear in various places on the tester to call your attention to Markings hazards or to indicate that you should consult the manuals for further information. Safety Symbols The protective ground symbol is used to define any connection point where a safety ground wire is added to the hardware.
Warning Terminology The following terms are used in respect to Teradyne products. Term Definition Danger HAZARD PRESENT. Before proceeding, refer to the operator or maintenance documentation to avoid personal injury and damage to equipment, or HAZARD NOT IMMEDIATE, but potentially lethal if a barrier is removed.
Z1866: Turn on the printers for systems A and B. Refer to your printer manual for more information. On Z1890, Z1888, Z1884, Z1880, Z1866, Z1860-NB, Z1860, Z1850, Z1840, Z1808, Z1805, Power Control, Interface Vacuum, Start, and Cancel switches are and Z1803 Plus testers illuminated when they are on.

SAFETY Turn off DUT and Test Head circuit breakers at the DUT and Test Head Power Supply. Power Off Procedure for the Z1860M, Z1850M, and Z1840M Testers To prevent damage to the tester and loss of data, follow the steps below to power down the tester from a production situation.
For the Z1890, 1888, and Z1880, the EMO may be flush with the tabletop, or you can tilt it 15 degrees up from the tabletop. A screw at the back of the switch secures it in the desired position.
For safety information on options, refer to the appropriate option manuals. Note: Z1890, Z1880 Z1890 and Z1880—Front, Top, and Right Side 1. Emergency Manual Off (EMO) switch Push to activate.

• WaveScan fixture, which allows you to use a radio frequency stimulus technique to deliver high fault coverage over a range of device types and fault classes. The second vacuum valve is standard for the Z1890, Z1884, and Z1866, but it is an Important: option for the other Z1800-Series testers, and must be installed to use the tandem fixture.
HAPTER PERATING THE ESTER Default permissions for operators are limited to logging in, selecting a test, and running a test. The procedures in this chapter are based upon these defaults. For detailed explanations of the Z1800-Series software, see the Z1800-Series Programmer's Guidebook.
OPERATING THE TESTER Daily Operations Because Teradyne recommends that you keep the tester power on except for maintenance and emergencies, daily operations do not include powering the tester on and off. For information about those procedures see the “Power On/Off Sequence” section in Chapter 1 of this manual.
Z1800-Series manuals are bound in static-dissipative binders. They will not store an Note: electrostatic charge and are safe to use near sensitive electronic components. Teradyne recommends against making copies of pages for use around testers—photocopies may carry electrostatic charges.
• Testing boards • Analyzing test printout results Load the Fixture and Load the Board and Fixture for the Z1890, Z1888, Z1884, Z1880, Z1860-NB Board MS, Z1860, Z1850, Z1840, Z1820, Z1808, Z1805, Z1803 Plus, Z1800 Refer to the illustration below as you read this procedure.
Press the Vacuum Interface switch to pull the fixture on to the fixture receiver interface. Connect the vacuum hose(s) to the fixture hose fitting(s). Set the fixture vacuum switches on as required.
