The General tab contains the following options:

  • Enable Handler/Prober Driver (Real or Simulated)—Specifies handler/prober options.
    • Handler/Prober Driver—Specifies the handler/prober driver to use. The drop-down menu lists the Built-in Simulated Handler Driver first and any other installed drivers in alphabetical order. Select the Built-in Simulated Handler Driver option to use the NI Built-in Simulated Handler Driver. The NI Built-in Simulated Handler Driver simulates handler functions when you do not have access to a real handler.
    • Configure Handler/Prober—Launches a dialog box, which you use to specify handler options.
  • Enable Inline QA—Specifies whether to enable inline QA. When you enable this option, specify a sequence file to determine the frequency of inline QA in the Inline QA Algorithm control. The drop-down menu displays only algorithms located in the <TestStand Public>\Components\Modules\NI_SemiconductorModule\InlineQA directory.
  • Test Program Directory—(Optional) Limits the selection of the test program to the directory you specify.
  • Step Failure Mode—Specifies how the test program continues after a failure occurs. This option mimics the functionality of the Immediately Goto Cleanup On Sequence Failure option on the Execution tab of the Station Options dialog box.
    • Continue on Step Failure—Specifies to continue testing after a failure occurs.
    • Goto Cleanup on Step Failure—Specifies to stop testing after a failure occurs.
  • Site Status Part Count—Specifies the number of part test results tracked per site. The site status indicators in the operator interface display the results of the last n parts, where this option specifies n.
  • Prevent Execution Tiling—Specifies whether to disable tiled execution. When you enable this option, specify the site count threshold in the if site count is greater than control. This setting automatically disables tiled execution when the number of active sites exceeds the specified value.
