Input & Output Ports
Three ports are located on the right side of the test stand.
Use these ports along with the necessary cable(s) to down
load information from a force gauge and up load information
to a data acquisition device.
FGC.V.X Input Port
DFS Series (Requires DFS-CTRL CABLE)
Use this input port to receive overload information from a
DFS series gauge. If an overload condition exists, the drive
assembly will stop, thus preventing permanent load cell
damage. Please note: The DFS must be turned on (display
showing) for this safety feature to work.
FGV Series (Requires FGV-CTRL CABLE)
When interfacing to the FGV series force gauge, the test
stand will receive overload and measuring data. If an overload
condition exists, the drive assembly will stop, thus preventing
permanent load cell damage. Please note: The FGV must be
turned on (display showing) for this safety feature to work.
FGC.V Output Port
(Requires FGV-RS232 CABLE)
Use this output port to transmit RS232C data to an external
device when a FGV series force gauge is mounted to the
stand. This port is not needed for the DFS series.
Length Output Port
(Requires FGS-ANALOG CABLE)
This port transmits an analog output voltage proportional
to the length meter display. The relationship between output
and display is 10mV/mm.
Since the length meter data is generated by the test stand,
this port can be used with any force gauge that’s mounted to
the stand. Note: if the LED display shows rate(mm/min),
the voltage output will still reflect length meter data.
