Start a dual-key command by pressing Q, followed by the two keys for the
command (for example, B and C.) If this dual-key command offers no
further selections, the Controller sends it to the simulator immediately. With
other dual-key commands, you will need to take at least one more step by
pressing S or R to make a selection from a list of commands. Send the
selected command by pressing T. Refer to Appendix A for descriptions of
dual-key commands.

2-9

HHC3

Users Manual

Immediate Commands

The Controller will act upon single-key and dual-key commands either
immediately or after you complete at least one additional step.

The Controller sends many commands as soon as you press a single key or
complete a dual-key sequence. These are immediate commands: no other
selection is necessary. The Controller display identifies each immediate
command.

All single-digit commands except B are immediate. For a dual-key
immediate command example, press Q B K, which yields the
following display:

The Controller sends this command to the simulator without further action.

Stepped Commands

Pressing a single-key or selecting the second key in a dual-key sequence can
require a secondary selection. These are stepped commands: additional
selections may be required. The display identifies such a command with up and
down arrow symbols. You press R or S to make the stepped command
selection. For example, pressing Q C G yields the following display:

Pressing R at this point accesses the next selection for this stepped
command, as follows:

With the required selection displayed, press T to send the command to the
simulator.

Using the Controller
Factory Sequences

Factory Sequences

The Controller features several pre-programmed common test sequences
referred to as factory sequences. Start a factory sequence by pressing Q,
followed by the two keys for the sequence. Access factory sequences for the
medSim 300B by using dual keys G J through H E. Access
factory sequences for the MPS450 or Marq III by using dual keys L G
through M D. Factory sequences are immediate commands. The display
changes to identify each part of the sequence.

Note

With the Controller connected to the medSim 300B, you can also
access four user-defined sequences programmed on that simulator.
Access these sequences with keys H F through H I.

Refer to Appendix B for descriptions of factory sequences for the medSim
300B and MPS450/Marq III simulators.

User Sequences

User sequences allow you to set up test programs using the Controller’s
keypad. You will be able to program the user-defined command by selecting
up to 100 steps involving existing single- or dual-key commands and user­entered delay times and termination techniques. You can set up user sequences
for dual keys K B through L F. Refer to Chapter 3 for a detailed
discussion of these user sequences.

Replacing the Batteries

If you are using the Controller with the MPS450 or Marq III simulator, either a
battery or a battery eliminator will be required. Refer to Figure 2-4 when
removing and installing the batteries. The battery eliminator connects at the top
of the Controller.

Note

Use the battery eliminator whenever possible, especially when
running long-term test sequences.

Programming User Sequences

Entering User Defined Mode

You can define user sequences for the dual keys from 90 to A4. These user
sequences form a set of dual-key commands existing for each simulator. You
can define these sequences with different types of intermediate delays between
each command in the sequence.

Note

Press U to go to the previous menu.

Use these steps to define user sequences:

1. Turn off the Simulator and the Controller.

2. Connect the Controller and any one of the simulators (medSim 300B,

MPS450, Marq III) and then switch the Simulator on.

3. While holding down the T on the Controller, switch ON the Controller.

4. Continue to hold T until the display shows WAIT. After the Power up

display appears, the Controller displays the menu for the Start up mode:
