Connecting Cables
Your controller manual should have cabling information about the connections
described in this section. Most controller manuals provide the signal pinouts of
the connector and assembly numbers for standard MTS cables.
Note Many of the cables are connected to optional equipment. The following
procedure shows the most common connections. The exact connector
locations vary quite a bit among the various models of the load frame.
Prerequisite
You must have either a cable assembly drawing of your test system, or you must
know the system controller well enough to determine each type of cable
connection.
1. The force transducer is connected to a DC conditioner in the controller.
2. The ground connection is located on the back of the control panel. This is
usually connected to a chassis ground on a console or the controller chassis.
3. The load frame control panel is connected to the controller chassis. It
contains the emergency stop and crosshead lock signals.
4. The servovalve is connected to a valve driver in the controller.
5. The displacement sensor (also called an linear variable displacement
transducer or LVDT) is connected to an AC conditioner in the controller.
