The eBIRST diagnostic test tools, designed specifically for the vendor's PXI, PCI, or LXI (Ethernet) products, simplify switching system fault finding by quickly testing the system and identifying the faulty relays. Once the relays are identified, the tools then display a graphical representation of the switching system's PCB assembly, highlighting the relays that need to be replaced. The eBIRST tools achieve this task by measuring the path resistance between different pins on the switching system connector and controlling the path through the system to allow it to test any of the relays in the system. Systems that use separate input and output connections can be tested by use of two eBIRST tools in a master/ slave configuration.
