Data Transfer between Test Bed and PUMA Open System

1.4 Data Transfer between Test Bed and PUMA
Open System
At the PUMA Open system, demand values are calculated and trans-
ferred to the output modules. At the F-FEM-DAC, the digital demand
values are converted into analog quantities (current/voltage) again,
e.g. to control a throttle actuator.
