FlyScan module integrates boundary scan and flying probe, and comes on the Pilot/Aerial flying probe testers. Is said to ensure automatic generation of the test program in a single software environment; automatic creation of the boundary scan program for non-JTAG nets, using the extended test function and the flying probes to transform them into JTAG testable nets; automatic elimination of test redundancies; automatic fault diagnostics, with real-time generation of additional tests executed by the flying probes for the specific identification of the faulty component; and management of the faults detected by the boundary scan test in the repair station environment.

Fischerscope XDAL and XDLM x-ray spectrometers are available. XDLM spectrometers with micro-focus tube and proportional counter tube are suited for the inspection of parts where small structures are measured. Typical applications are measurements on PC boards, plug contacts and electronic components. Are equipped with four exchangeable apertures and a programmable XY(Z) measuring stage. Are for testing mass-produced parts.

XDAL spectrometers with silicon PIN detectors provide reliable analysis results and coating thickness readings. Have a precise XY(Z) measuring stage. Are for automated sample measurements.

Cycle Stop Controller is an Ethernet-enabled device that electrically integrates with the cycle stop circuit of any machine type. When used with a software module such as line setup control, route control and MSD control, the application forces the machine to stop processing when a process validation error occurs. Eliminates the risk of building defective product due to invalid machine setup or trying to perform an operation out of sequence. Can be integrated with any third-party software application with a communication protocol using TCP/IP socket connection.
