6Running a Test or Task
When you run a test or a task, xTalk Management Console sends a script
to the device telling it to perform the specified action. This chapter covers
the following test/task related functions:
• Checking Device Readiness
• Running a Test or Task
• Aborting a Test or Task
Checking Device Readiness 6
This option queries the device to determine if it is ready to run a test or
task. This option also clears check condition buffers.
To determine whether a device is ready:
1 Select a device from the Device Selection Panel.
2 Do one of the following:
• Choose Commands > Test Unit Ready from the menu.
• Click the Ready button on the toolbar.
As the device readiness is checked, the status displays briefly in a
dialog box. Then another dialog box opens, telling you if the device is
ready or not.
