An automatic test equipment (ATE) contactor adapter compatible with at least one test board. The contactor adapter includes a contactor adapter body having a first side and a second side. The contactor adapter body includes: 1) a first set of contact components disposed on the first side in an arrangement to contact conductive pads of the at least one test board; and 2) a second set of contact components disposed on the second side and coupled to the first set of contact points. The contactor adapter also includes an adapter interface disposed on the contactor adapter body. The adapter interface includes a third set of contact components coupled to the second set of contact components. The ATE contactor adapter is configured to convey signals between a device under test (DUT) and the at least one test board via the first, second, and third sets of contact components.

A mobile lifting device includes a car having a gate and a docking plate mechanically interconnected at one end of the car. A low voltage DC control system includes an &ldquo;up&rdquo; circuit, a &ldquo;down&rdquo; circuit connected in parallel with the up circuit, and a sensor circuit in series with the up circuit and down circuit. The sensor circuit includes a plurality of series connected switches for automatically preventing operation of the lifting device if predetermined conditions are not met. The &ldquo;up&rdquo; circuit includes a switch positioned on a stage and connected to the control circuit by a coiled cable. A wand on the switch engages a knob on the side of the car when the car reaches the level of the stage, actuating the switch to stop the car. In the event of a power failure, a battery supplies power for opening a solenoid valve to lower the car. Three control panels are provided, one at each end of the car and one in the middle of the car. Each control panel includes a switch for causing the car to be raised or lowered and the switches are electrically interlocked to prevent simultaneous operation of relays for up and down motion. The control panel in the car can be disabled.
