mdtest program

[k1w1]

Hi all
Two questions

1. Where are the instuction for operating the mdtest program? after installing into a T100MD1616 all it seemed to do was operate the outputs, is there more it will do ?

2. How static sensitive is the TPIC6A595NE ic ? Is touching the pins liable to damage it ? I beleive this can be an issue when handling cmos devices.

Are you referring to the program downloaded from the selftest page? (http://www.tri-plc.com/selftest/) If so, then you can turn on the inputs to the PLC one by one and the corresponding output should light up. There are step by step instruction to carry out the self test on the above page.

Also TPIC6A595NE is a MOSFET driver. It is quite hardy and not easily destroyed by static unlike logic devices.
