Basic Functions
Interlocks The Controller provides interlocks for adjustable upper/lower limit,
underpeak, error detection for each sensor conditioner installed, and
others. These interlocks can be daisy-chained for multiple controller
configurations.
Function Generation A function generator (with a built-in cycle counter) in the Controller
provides basic sine, square, triangle, and ramp command waveforms.
For tests requiring complex waveforms, the Controller provides an
external command input to receive externally generated commands.
The function generator waveform can be output to another MTS
FlexTest SE Controller (or any external device) for synchronization.
Hydraulic Pressure
Control
The Controller provides complete control of the test system hydraulics.
It can be used to control a hydraulic power supply and a hydraulic
service manifold to apply low and high hydraulic pressure to the test
system. In multiple Controller configurations, the Controller provides
first-on/last-off control of the hydraulic power supply in addition to
control of a local hydraulic service manifold.
