Position the Actuator Using Displacement Control

In this step you will position the actuator for the start of the test.

Warning

:

Do not move the control slider until the crush zone is clear, and you can monitor actuator
movement.

Unskilled movement of the actuator can result in machine damage or personal injury.

Ensure that the area is clear, that you can see what you are doing, and that you have the
necessary skill to proceed safely.

1. Enable manual displacement control.

a) In the Station Manager main window, click the Manual Command button. The Manual Controls

window appears.

b) Select the following:

1. Channel — Ch1 (or other depending on your configuration)
2. Control Mode — Displacement
3. Enable Manual Command checkbox — Checked

Manual command is automatically zeroed when it is switched on to ensure that the actuator does
not move before desired.

2. Familiarize yourself with the slider control.
