Turning the HSM off removes power from the actuator so that it cannot move unexpectedly during load
frame inspection or specimen installation.

Note: It is acceptable to leave the pump (HPU) on, as it may be needed for other stations and
also leaves power to the hydraulic grips for specimen installation.

7. Identify the current configuration and parameter set.

The configuration and parameter set currently in use is shown in the title bar of the Station Manager
application. For this test, the title bar should read "Training config.cfg: hard specimen tuning".

Verify Calibration Files

It is important to verify that the Station Manager calibration files match the load cell (force sensor) and
actuator LVDT to help ensure that you collect valid data.

1. Verify that the correct calibration file for the displacement sensor is in use.
