As an on-going effort to increase reliability the load sensing system was extended from a stand alone system to an integrated facility system. Doing this allows some level of repeatability along with the ability to archive the captured data. The expanded system utilizes remote IO with a Analog to Digital module to read the +/-10VDC output voltage from the charge amplifier along with a output module to toggle the measure/reset input to the charge amplifier. The data readings from the remote IO is connected to the Coude LIC which has the code to read the voltages and control the measure/reset signal.
The data capture page details the procedure on how data is captured and stored.
