Vibration Control Systems
The document details various vibration control systems, including Premier Classical Shock Transient Control, Resonance Search, Track and Dwell (RSTD) Vibration Control, Sine-on-Random (SoR) Vibration Control, and Random-on-Random (RoR) Vibration Control. Each section outlines control parameters, test setup, management, and special features.
Premier Classical Shock Transient Control
Details control parameters such as frequency range (0 to 22 kHz), frame size, transfer function, averaging, filtering, and pulse delay. Describes pulse types, duration, compensation methods, abort limits, validation tools, and test schedule management. Safety features include automatic detection of input overload and graceful shutdown procedures.
Resonance Search, Track and Dwell (RSTD) Vibration Control
Includes features from the Swept Sine Vibration Control software. Allows users to define search and dwell events, with automated and interactive test modes. Explains resonance search criteria, dwell modes, and drift criteria. Highlights special displays and post-test documentation features.
Sine-on-Random (SoR) Vibration Control
Describes setup and control of SoR tests, including broadband control techniques and sine tone control techniques. Highlights validation tools, RMS limits, and special data displays. Covers test management, including automatic and manual modes.
Random-on-Random (RoR) Vibration Control
Outlines setup and control of RoR tests, focusing on broadband and narrowband control techniques. Discusses special displays and safety features, emphasizing automated and interactive test modes.
Additional Vibration Control Systems
Includes Sine-and-Random-on-Random (SRoR), Shock Response Spectrum (SRS) Transient Control, Transient Time History (TTH) Control, and Long Time History (LTH) Waveform Replication Control. Each section outlines capabilities, setup, and management, emphasizing application in simulating complex vibration environments.
Validation Tools
Displays and validates waveforms against shaker parameters, allowing for automatic or manual aborts during testing. Continuous point-abort checking enables aborts during a test rather than at the end of an entire output data frame.
Drive Generation
After determining the initial transfer function, tests can start immediately with a drive signal that is continuously adjusted. An overlapped convolution algorithm ensures smooth transitions between output frames.
On-line Control
The transfer function is updated continuously during the test to adjust for non-linear effects and changing load dynamics, ensuring high accuracy without multiple pre-test iterations.
Test Schedule
Pre-programmed schedules include test levels, output repetitions, and result saving.
Post-test Documentation
Single-click generation of data plots and test reports, including setup parameters, test logs, and formatted signal plots in Microsoft Word.
Specifications
The software supports random, swept sine, and classical shock testing, with options for upgrading from Value to Premier packages without additional hardware. Key features include a wide frequency range, high dynamic range, and various control strategies.
Software Package Comparison
Both Value and Premier packages offer similar setup features, test execution modes, and safety features. However, Premier packages provide additional capabilities such as multiple channel control, non-acceleration control, and advanced signal displays.
Ordering Information
Lists hardware and software bundles, including optional hardware and software for enhanced functionality. Calibration services are also available.
Disclaimer
Includes a disclaimer about the accuracy and completeness of the information, noting that content is subject to change without notice.
