Description
Item
The list is empty because no controller is connected from which
to query the valid resource names. The edit box shows the
Controller Resource (when not
connected to a controller)
internal name. If you type a different name, it is stored as the
internal and display name. There is no validation error since
there are no controller resources to validate against.
Click Check to define Max/Min resource capacity for the signal
and initiate a check against these settings when you attempt
to run the test.
Capacity
For example, the Load Cell Capacity configuration item is used
to define an optional minimum and optional maximum capacity
for a load cell that is used with a specific template. A check is
performed between the defined minimum/maximum capacity
with the capacity of the load cell being used. If the load cell is
inadequate, the test cannot start.
Effect of Increasing Extension
Note:
This setting is only available with MTS TestSuite TW
software running on an Insight
®
Controller.
This setting defines the relationship between the
crosshead/displacement channel and each float signal.
•
Select Increases Value when an increase in the crosshead
or actuator extension will increase the value of the signal.
•
Select Decreases Value when an increase in the crosshead
or actuator extension will decrease the value of the signal.
•
Select Indefinite for signals (such as time) where there is
no direct relationship to the crosshead or actuator extension.
