Batch Model - Group Sockets

Hi,

I have the following situation:

- 3 groups of sockets,

- each group has 30 sockets,

- 60 sockets total.

Each group is one fixture in climatic chamber. All fixtures are in the same chamber at the same time, creating one batch. Unfortunately temperature in each fixture differs, therefore I want to make batch serial synchronisation of groups.

In example:

I set the 80 degrees in chamber. Fixture 1 reached the temperature but, fixture 2 and 3 not, so fixture 1 can start the test and fixture 2 and 3 needs to wait for the proper temperature.

Currently I'm using batch serialization (I'm using shared HW). One thread sets the chamber and waits for the temperature in all fixtures, and then tests are performed in series.

Any idea how to do this sockets grouping?

when you say 3 groups of sockets does it means  that you run 3 Executions? or 60 executions at same time?

60 executions (plus one for batch controller)
