Scan Executive Diagnosis
Boundary Scan delivers robust pin level diagnostics. The Scan Executive Manufacturing Test Station provides a robust set of diagnostic capabilities to enable manufacturing personnel to isolate and correct problems inadvertently introduced during the PCB assembly process. The Scan Executive Manufacturing Test Station is unique in the industry as it provides the same diagnostic capabilities found in the Eclipse Test Development Environment as standard features. Many 1149.1 tool vendors do not provide diagnostic capabilities in their standard product offerings and force users to purchase a separate package to diagnose failures. Not having diagnostic capabilities in the manufacturing environment is costly and should be a consideration when purchasing an 1149.1 test solution.
Scan Path Diagnostics
The EclipseTM Scan Path Integrity Test (or SPIT) automatically verifies that all of a design's test logic is functioning properly. Scan Executive will return pin-level diagnostics for each SPIT failure so that the test logic can be debugged, repaired and production test can begin.

PinFault Diagnostics
For each failure, the Scan Executive Manufacturing Test Station will display the PinFault Diagnostics list, which includes, the device name and pin where the failure was observed.

Customized Diagnostic Actions
The Scan Executive manufacturing Test Station can be set up direct status and diagnostic messages generated during a test to one or more outputs. The default output for diagnostic information is the Scan Executive Manufacturing Test Station's status window. Optionally, diagnostics can be directed to a file or be directed to a printer. Scan Executive can build customized reports based on a the UUT Serial number.
Boundary-Scan Intelligent Diagnostics (BSID)
Optionally, the Scan Executive Manufacturing Test Station can include support for BSID. BSID is an advanced form of diagnostics that uses the failure data generated by the Eclipse Board Interconnect Test ATPG engine to isolate the failing devices.
