Automated option
Automated FlexTest SE Controllers are designed to be used with a PC, MTS 793
software, and various types of support files, including a hardware interface file
(.hwi) file. The .hwi file defines each type of electronic module in the chassis
(and associated mezzanine cards), and maps each module location for the MTS
793 software. The .hwi file and the physical locations for each type of module
and associated mezzanine cards must match. Also, the I/O Carrier module
address setting (on the module) must match the .hwi file address.
Adding I/O Carrier
For automated controllers, a second I/O Carrier module can be added to support a
second channel or to expand sensor conditioning. Its addition can also be used to
support more A/D and D/A channels.
Note
If you are upgrading your system, a faster processor may be required.
Contact MTS for information on system upgrade requirements.
To add a second I/O Carrier module:
1. Install the required mezzanine cards in the I/O Carrier module.
2. Install a second Model 493.40 I/O Carrier module in slot 3 of the controller
chassis.
3. Change your .hwi file to reflect the added I/O Carrier module and its
mezzanine cards.
4. Use the Station Builder application to allocate resources for the additional
hardware.
