Functional Test (FCT)

  • Connect fixture (bed‑of‑nails/connectors); run defined scripts

  • Typical coverage:

    • Current consumption in run/standby

    • Digital I/O, pull‑ups/downs

    • Analog paths (ADC/DAC linearity, references)

    • Communications (Wi‑Fi)

    • Sensors/actuators simulated or attached

    • Memories (EEPROM/Flash/RAM) read/write

    • Safety features (watchdog, brown‑out)

  • Limits and pass/fail per test instruction

  • Auto‑attach test results to SN and archive (Form F1, add log)

Equipment

  • Thermometer for measuring room temperature

  • Cube magnet for wind direktion sensor test

  • Cylinder magnet for wind speed sesnsor test

  • Protection cover with marked positions for magnets

  • Actual Chrome web browser on PC

  • Same equipment as before

Test conditions

  • Successfully completed flash procedure

  • WiFi login in MyBoat

  • Same elektrical conditions as before

  • Set power source 12V

Functional test procedure

1. Attach protective cover

2. Opening the website with web browser: http://windsensor-0.local/devinfo

3. Check the firmware version

  • V1.20

Fig.: Web page devinfo

4. Check WiFi connection quality (CQ: > 90% by short distance between router and PCB)

5. Check realistic room temperature

  • Check value Device Temperature app. room temperature + 10°C

6. Check wind direction sensor on position 1 with cube magnet (note polarity)

  • Check value Wind Direction

  • Values ​​must change by 90° for a 90° magnet change

  • Angle values ​​must cover 0…360°

  • Offset is uncritical

Fig.: Test positions on PCB

7. Check wind speed sensor on position 2 with cube magnet (note polarity)

  • Check value Sensor 1 (Speed)

  • Without magnet = 1

  • With magnet = 0

8. Access the Yachta instrument page and check

Fig.: Web page devinfo

9. Access the JSON page and save the extract (optional)

10. Disconnect PCB

11. Label the firmware version on the PCB backside

Acceptance

  • WiFi connection established

  • WiFi connection quality > 90%

  • Dispaying correct web page (error free)

  • Correct page change

  • Page refresh < 1 s

  • Realistic temperature values (not perfect and with offset)

  • 0…360° values for wind direction sensor

  • 0/1 change for wind speed sensor

  • Current consumption < 35 mA at 12V

    • Label for firmware version is placed
