Remote Setpoint
Adjust (RSA)
The Remote Setpoint Adjust control allows you to use one or more encoders on a
station to control the setpoints of control channels (available for FlexTest IIm and
FlexTest GT Controllers only).
Model 494.05 Handset
The Handset provides a portable control interface for performing basic test
operations such as:
• Moving the actuator to install the specimen
• Monitoring sensors
• Zeroing sensors
• Resetting and overriding interlocks
• Applying and removing hydraulic pressure from the station
• Starting and stopping tests
The Handset is lightweight and can be placed on a table or mounted on a stand in
close proximity to the test frame to facilitate specimen loading.
Password protection
The test designer can enable Handset operation at any access level. Access is set
on the Handset Options page in the Station Options window of the 793 Station
Manager application.
Other features
• The Handset can be configured to operate only in the displacement control
mode.
• The manual command control auto-disables after 90 seconds to minimize
inadvertent operation.
