XJTAG - XJRunner Run-time production test environment software
- Improves your QA through configurable logging
- Allows you to retain power of control on how boards are tested by third parties
- User-friendly environment reduces your training costs for production operatives
- Ability to test multiple boards, simultaneously, by using multiple XJLinks
XJRunner is the specialised run-time environment for executing pre-compiled XJDeveloper projects. With a range of special features it is particularly aimed at board manufacturers and in-field support. In one package, you have interconnect testing, in-system programming, non-JTAG device testing, serial number handling and configurable log files for your audit trail. It has an easy-to-use GUI, with all the testing capabilities of XJEase.
Simple, secure & audited production testing
XJRunner tests are loaded from a single encrypted file that contains a compressed version of the XJDeveloper test system created by your design or test engineers. This means that your tests cannot be changed in the production environment. The consistency that this ensures for your testing process can be seen when reviewing the configurable log files that can be produced whenever you test a board.
XJRunner has a simple Run/Stop, Pass/Fail interface which makes first pass testing a simple point-and-click operation, ideal for the production line. Configurable run-time messages can tell the tester about any required procedures both before and after testing each board.

Parallel testing
Using multiple XJLinks or the 4-port XJQuad, save time by testing a batch of boards simultaneously as a group. Alternatively, run through them independently by continuously unplugging one board that has finished testing and plugging in a new one whilst tests are still running on the other ports.
When you’re testing multiple boards in parallel, using auxiliary XJLinks can give considerable cost savings because only one of the attached XJLinks needs to have an XJRunner licence.
User Management
XJRunner has different levels of users, from Basic users who can simply run a complete set of tests on a board, to Advanced users who can carry out more complex testing and manage projects. Each operator can have a separate login. This allows you to restrict each operator’s access to the XJRunner features they have been trained to use; it can also be used to identify the operator for audit.
Powerful, flexible, diagnostic testing
After a faulty board has been identified on the production line with a default set of Pass/Fail tests, advanced users can then pinpoint faults by running additional tests and debug procedures. They can also choose to run a particular test, or set of tests, a number of times, or even run a test continuously to help diagnose particularly tricky or intermittent problems on a board.
XJRunner also provides statistics on the percentage of boards that have passed/failed as well as Fault Trend Analysis, highlighting tests prone to failure.
Layout & Schematic Viewers included
If any faults are found when running tests, the Layout Viewer and Schematic Viewer* can be used to locate and understand the faults on the board by showing the schematic design and the physical routing of nets, which highlight the potential problem areas. You can also quickly find any component, pin or net in your circuit when trying to pinpoint a fault.
In order to use the Layout Viewer you’ll need to use ODB++ when developing the project or the target system.
* For manufacturers to use the Layout and Schematic Viewers in XJRunner, you have to explicitly export the relevant information from XJDeveloper. Conversely, if the information needs to be kept confidential, do not export it to XJRunner.
Log Files
All the output from tests is logged. There is a range of logging options, to choose both what is logged (time, date, serial number, user information, etc.) and how the logs should be grouped (e.g. keep all output for the same board in the same file).
Serial numbering
XJRunner can also program and log serial numbers, or other forms of identification such as MAC addresses. These can be generated by XJRunner, taken from the packaged XJDeveloper system, or be input directly (e.g. from a bar code reader).
Easily Portable Testing
All of the files needed to run tests on a board are packaged together in one XJPack file, making it easy to transfer tests between different computers and sites.

EMC test equipment to evaluate the resistibility of electronic devices and components when energy charged on a human body or object is discharged to the electronic devices and components. NoiseKen brand ESD simulator is available to see malfunctions or function declines of electronic equipment for appropriate evaluations compliant with IEC 61000-4-2 Ed.2 Test Standard, ISO 10605 Ed.2 Test Standard & ISO 10605 Ed.3 Test Standard.
The ESS-S3011A features a function which enables the user to pre-program test settings to minimize setup errors as well as having the unit be incorporated into a remote or autonomous testing setup. Another feature that sets apart NoiseKen ESD guns to that of competitors is the discharging gun separation design which helps achieve the lightweight.
For conventional ESD guns, that have generators that are inseparable from the gun, you may experience having to replace the whole unit even only when certain parts of the unit are broken. However, with the NoiseKen’s separation design, replacement parts can be minimized to lower the running cost.
