Functional Test Systems are designed to test the product functionality. The goal is to guaranty the delivery of fully operational products to end users. The system presented here is one used for the Automotive industry. The system was build using “Keysight Technologies” components and included the testing of: RF, analog and digital signals combined with CAN-Bus communication paths. The tests and matrix switching are controlled by the “TestExecSL” test executive software platform. Other software modules are used to control the communication with: Databases, Bar/Data-Matrix scanner, Ticket printer and fixtures.

This automotive test system is used to test the functionality of the central control unit:

• Air Back system
• RF control of open/close doors, flashing lights depending on distance (RF-Level)
• Cruise control
• Radio control
• Lights ...

The RF part of the test required a RF shielded box (-70 dB)
