28000 System Control

The 28000 system is controlled by the supplied Graphical User Interface (GUI) operating on a Windows compatible PC controller or over the network using the built-in 28000-LCS interactive command line interpreter. The PC controller communicates with the 28000 frames via the backplane interface card. A single PC controller can support up to eight 28000 systems. Both the GUI control software and the 28000-LCS interpreter are included with each 28000 system.

Graphical User Interface

The Graphical User Interface (GUI) control software provides an easy-to-use spreadsheet-style environment with well-organized menus and point and click ease of use. All system functions are controlled by the GUI, from configuration, set-up and operations through pre-test verify and diagnostics, FAT and Go/No-Go tests. The GUI’s display and control panels are customizable to the application or user preference. Selectable security settings control access to the system and movement between various system functions protecting critical programmed system parameters.

On power-up, the GUI automatically configures the system to control the exact set of signal conditioner cards installed in the 28000 frames. The GUI incorporates a collection of algorithms to automate tedious setup tasks. Based on user input, the GUI apportions gain in each channel to provide best signal-to-noise ratio while minimizing the chance of an overload occurring on out-of-band signals. Databases allow the user to import TEDS capable transducer information including type, sensitivity, last calibration date and serial number.

28000-LCS Interpreter

The resident 28000-LCS program is an interactive command line interpreter that allows the 28000 system to be controlled on an Ethernet network. During operation, the system status and commands pass between the host computer and the 28000 system via a TCP/IP connection. The 28000-LCS is a straightforward method for controlling the 28000 system since status messages and commands are readable sequences of ASCII characters.
