The following Application Notes are provided to allow our customers to utilize the features of the Dynalab Analyzers to meet their specific requirements. Please contact Dynalab Technical Support at support@dynalab-inc.com if you would like to receive a copy. The following is a list of the Application Notes available:

Sequence Programming Basics: The Default Sequence
      Provides a detailed explanation of the Default Sequence and the TEST Sequence Item.          Particular emphasis is placed on error handling.

Fixture Clamp Activation
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to activate a fixture clamp to release a wiring harness
      only after it passes all tests, ensuring that harnesses are completely tested before removal
      from the test fixture.

How To Prevent Removal of Harness From Fixture Before Testing is Completed
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to enter an alarm mode if the wiring harness is
      removed before all the tests are completed. The alarm mode requires keyed supervisory
      intervention to reset – this ensures that all wiring harnesses are completely tested before
      removal from the test fixture.

How to program the Analyzer to check continuity in random order
      Explains how to use the CONTINUITY-RND Sequence Item. This eliminates the need for
      “wiggle- jiggle” of connectors to establish continuity in a pre-defined order.

How to ensure that a harness is completely tested when the previous harness is prematurely removed from the fixture
      Explains how to use the SCANBRK Sequence Item.

Label Printing
      Explains the many capabilities offered by Dynalab’s label printers. Particular emphasis is
      placed on printing a label only when the harness passes all tests. Explains how to print a
      variety of parameters including Operator ID, Serial Number, Date and Time, Company Logo,
      etc.

How to Print a Harness Label and a Box Label
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to print two distinct labels: one for each good harness,       and another for the box in which the good harnesses are packaged.

Receipt Printer
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to output error information to a Receipt Printer.

Using The Bar Code Scanner To Validate Product Identification
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to scan bar-coded product information from a wiring
      harness label, and validate that the product ID is correct.

Using the Bar Code Scanner for Test Program Selection
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to scan bar-coded product identification information
      from a harness label, then select and execute the associated test program.

Detecting the Presence of Mechanical Features
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to check the status of fixture mounted detection
      switches in order to detect the presence of mechanical features of a wiring harness such as
      connectors, secondary locks, retainer clips, etc. This extends the capability of the Analyzer
      electrical testing, ensuring that the non-electrical mechanical features of the harness are
      assembled properly.

Relay Module
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to energize and de-energize the Relay Module to
      control external electrically-actuated devices.

Testing Electrical Parts That Mate With a Connector
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to test for the presence of parts that are designed to
      mate with a harness connector and that change the electrical configuration of the harness.
      Examples are shorting caps, fuses, relay coils, light bulbs, and switches.

Testing Switches In A Wiring Harness
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to test switches that are part of a wiring harness
      allowing testing of switches in each possible position.

Resistor Testing: 1K to 50K Ohms
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to test for the presence of a resistor in a wiring
      harness whose value is between 1000 ohms and 50,000 ohms.

Resistor Testing: 1000 Ohms or less
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to test for the presence of a resistor in a wiring
      harness whose value is 1000 ohms or less.

Capacitor Testing: 0.1uF to 470uF
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to test for the presence of a capacitor in a wiring
      harness whose value is between 0.1uF and 470 uF.

Testing Diodes / LED's in a Wiring Harness
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to perform diode / LED testing by ensuring that
      continuity is present in the forward direction and that continuity is not present in the reverse
      direction. This ensures that the diode / LED has been assembled in the harness with the
      proper orientation.

How to Set a Warning Condition When a Short Error Occurs
      Explains how to program the Analyzer to stop the test and sound a warning whenever a short       error occurs. This warning condition requires supervisory intervention to reset.
