      How to Run Test Sequences with GRL-PSP

      Scope of this Article

      This article serves as a reference document for the user to configure and run test sequences for  the UUT (Unit Under Test) using the GRL Power Suite Pro (GRL-PSP) software and the GRL-USB-PD-C2 USB Type-C Test Controller Hardware / GRL-USB-PD-F1 USB Power Performance Tester.

       

      Note: For details on using the GRL-PSP software or the GRL-USB-PD-C2 / F1 Controller, please refer to their respective user documentation on GRL's website. 

      Run Test Sequences

      The Sequencer function of the GRL-PSP is used to simulate several test cases in custom sequence for the UUT that is connected to USB Test Port 1 or Port 2 of the GRL-USB-PD-C2 / F1 Controller.

      Here are the steps to configure and run test sequences:

      1. On the Sequencer screen, select the Port of the GRL-USB-PD-C2 / F1 Controller (that is connected with the UUT) and then select which Test to be performed. Click on the Add Test button to configure and add the test to the list on the left panel. Repeat this process if there are multiple tests to be added and run. The left panel should display a list of all selected tests for the respective Test Port of the GRL-USB-PD-C2 / F1 ControllerHow to Run Test Sequences with GRL-PSP_set up test list_sequencer
