An interface unit placed between the check-out chain and the item under test that, before connection, allows the chain to be verified against itself: continuity, pin correspondence, absence of unintended levels.
It is the function that avoids discovering a wiring error when there is a flight model on the other end — that is, when the error stops being merely a delay.
