The Command Button class binds the buttons displayed on the front panel of the default operator interface to command objects in the TSM Application API. This class inherits from the Control class.

The TSM Application API includes the following types of commands:

  • Configure Lot—Launches a dialog box to configure a lot.
  • Configure Station—Launches a dialog box to configure the station.
  • Open STS Maintenance Software—Launches STS Maintenance Software 17.1 or later.
  • Perform Single Part Test—Starts a lot and tests a single DUT for each site if no lot is active and pauses between DUTs when complete or, if paused between DUTs, tests a single DUT for each site before pausing again.
  • Start Lot—Starts testing a new lot.
  • Start/Resume Lot—Starts testing a new lot, resumes a suspended sequence execution at a breakpoint, or resumes a sequence execution that is paused between DUTs.
  • Pause Lot—Pauses testing of the lot. Testing pauses between DUTs after completing the tests for the current DUTs on each site and before TSM sends the end-of-test (EOT) signal to the handler or prober.
  • Pause/Resume Lot—Pauses execution of the lot after the current DUT for each site completes testing, resumes a suspended sequence execution at a breakpoint, or resumes a sequence execution that is paused between DUTs. If the sequence execution is suspended at a breakpoint, you cannot use this command to pause the execution of the lot.
  • Retest—After a single test completes or when you pause a lot, retests a single DUT for each site for the active sequence file and then pauses execution.
  • End Lot—Ends execution of the lot.
  • View Mid Lot Summary—Generates a Mid-Lot Summary text report and displays the report in a floating panel.
  • View Reports—Displays the reports for the current execution in a floating panel.
  • Login/Logout—Logs an operator in or out.
  • Exit—Closes the operator interface.
