Does anyone know under what conditions something like this device would be tested??

Is code loaded to just o/p a test screen via the HDMI? Are the o/p's loaded and cycled at different rates? Are all peripherals & I/O exercised?

You could... try reading the link.

Ummm yeah, I did 7 hence the question, it doesn't go into detail.

The board can be configured in almost an infinite number ways & will likely be hooked up to other equipment. Last time I had to do a product vaguely similar we "nominated" a typical configuration...

Also as an open board, what is used for the ESD discharge points? For the closed / housed stuff I've been involved with I think it was pretty much anywhere a finger could discharge onto.

These detail would be detailed in the lab's formal test report.

There are general test configuration requirements in the EMC Directive, and CISPR16, 22, and 24 that would apply, but the specific operational states would have to be rationalized in the report.

47CFR15 has similar details

Thanks Brian. I guess the formal test report will not be available for us to read. I was just interested in the practicalities of how they set the board up. There seems to be plenty of scope for interpretation in some of the tests.
