Remote Setpoint Adjustment

About the Optional Remote Setpoint Adjust

The optional Remote Setpoint Adjust (RSA) control box allows actuator setpoints to be remotely adjusted,
away from the test station’s computer screen.

Note:

Before the remote setpoint adjust (RSA) controls appear in the Station Manager application, you must
enable the RSA in the Project Manager system settings list.

Station Setup settings

The Station Setup window includes settings for RSA polarity and resolution.

Station Controls settings

Use the Station Manager application’s Remote Setpoint Adjust station controls window to assign channel
and control modes to each knob, and to set up password access to RSA disable.

Velocity limiter

A 10 mm/sec. velocity limit, required for CE compliance, can be enabled in the .hwi file. Removing the comment
symbols (/* and */) from the VELOCITY LIMITER statement in the .hwi file enables the feature.

When enabled, CE velocity limitation is performed on manual command adjustments, setpoint adjustments
made from the Model 494.05 Handset (or RSC) and setpoint adjustments made with the Remote Setpoint
Adjust control (optional).
