The manual you need depends entirely on your software version.
For a test engineer, the is not merely a reference book; it is the primary tool for translating device specifications into production reality. However, navigating the extensive documentation library associated with the 93k can be as complex as the test development process itself.
For new users: Start with Chapter 1 of the SmarTest User Guide and the Safety section of the Hardware Manual. For veterans: Revisit the Calibration Manual every six months – you will find a procedure you forgot existed.
Each pin has its own local memory and sequencer.
However, the foundational knowledge—timing sets, levels, pin electronics, calibration—is timeless. Mastering the physical manual today makes you a better test engineer tomorrow.
