MOTOR TESTING SOFTWARE SPECIFIC FEATURES ▪ DSP7002 Programmable Controller Support ▪ Full independent dual channels control software ▪ Supports the optional Analog and Digital I/O Modules on the DSP7002 Programmable Controller. ▪ Expanded power analyzer and power supply selections. ▪ Programmable analog and digital outputs per step ▪ Test speed, torque, amps, watts input, watts output and open loop parameters. ▪ Capable of adjusting sampling rate and using step or ramp from one load point to the next. ▪ Displays 63 Tested and Calculated Parameters: Torque, speed and auxiliary input are displayed from the DSP7002 Controller; amps, volts and watts from an (optional) power analyzer. Calculated values including horsepower, efficiency, power factor, output watts and time can also be displayed. Optional analog and digital inputs can also be displayed. ▪ Three-Phase Power Analyzer Data Acquisition: Obtain data on each individual phase and/or the sum used in the chosen parameters (amps, volts, input watts and power factor). Fig.1 : DUAL-TEST 7 Motor Testing Software DESCRIPTION Magtrol’s DUAL-TEST7 is a state-of-the-art motor testing software for PC (Windows® XP sp3/7/8) based data acquisition. Used with a Magtrol Programmable Dynamometer Controller DSP7002, DUAL‑TEST7 works on two channels independently with any Magtrol Dynamometer or In-Line Torque Transducer to help determine the performance characteristics of a motors under test. Up to 63 parameters are calculated and displayed utilizing DUAL‑TEST7’s feature-rich testing and graphing capabilities. ▪ USB Interface : Computer interface USB2.0 available with DSP7002. Optional IEEE-488 or RS-232 can be added. An integral component of any Magtrol Motor Test System, DUAL-TEST7 performs curve tests in a manner best suited to the overall efficiency of the test rig. Written in LabVIEW™, DUAL-TEST7 has the flexibility to test a variety of motors in a multitude of configurations. The data generated from this userfriendly program can be stored, displayed and printed in tabular or graphical formats, and is easily imported into a spreadsheet. ▪ PID Adjustment Routines: Helps user adjust the system for ramp and step functions. Magtrol can also make custom modifications to the software to meet additional motor testing requirements. ▪ Motor Shaft Direction Indicator: Indicates if the motor is turning clockwise or counterclockwise. ▪ Graphing Capabilities: Display up to 5 test curves in a single graph; easy-to-read colored and labeled plots with several graph formatting options; manual or auto scaling. ▪ Curve Fitting: A curve fitting routine can be applied to most motor test curves. Raw data and curve fit data can also be displayed simultaneously. ▪ Save/Load Setup Function: Test procedure configurations may be stored and recalled using standard Windows® file structure. APPLICATIONS DUAL-TEST7—besides being well-suited for simulating loads, cycling the unit under test and motor ramping—is also ideal for production line, due to the full dual channels tests functions. Another time-saving feature, that engineering labs will benefit from, is the ability to duplicate tests and run them automatically. This versatile program is extremely valuable to anyone involved in motor testing.. © 2020 MAGTROL | Due to continual product development, Magtrol reserves the right to modify specifications without forew

DUAL-TEST 7 ANALOG INPUT MEASUREMENT Up to 128 thermocouples or analog sensors can be read and monitored during a motor test. Heat rise curves on the bearings, windings and housing of a motor can be performed and air flow/ exhaust efficiencies can be measured with an air tool or internal combustion engine. DUAL-TEST7, with its complete dynamometer control, even allows for analog measurement while performing load simulation for duty cycle and life testing. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION A Magtrol Dynamometer provides motor loading with a Magtrol Programmable Dynamometer Controller acting as the...
