About Read-Only HSMs
A read-only HSM refers to a hydraulic pressure source that is controlled by an external system
(or manually) and monitored by the MTS controller. The read-only HSM state (pressure) is monitored
using one or two dedicated digital inputs. The Hwi Editor application assigns these inputs to the
read-only HSM.
