9.1.2.8 160 Test Selection
The Test Selections tab in the 160 test window contains the following controls and displays.
Control / Display
Description
Select Airframe.
This drop down control allows the operator to select from one or more libraries of
test sequences grouped by airframe. This allows multiple sets of test sequences
to be organized by application. The GUI program is supplied with a generic
DO160_RevE set of test sequences.
Power Group Test
Table
A library can contain up to twelve power group test tables labeled ACF115,
ANF115, AWF115, ACF230, ANF230, AWF230, ADC28, BDC28, ZDC28,
ADC14, BDC14, or ZDC14. These table names correspond to the Power Groups
identified in the RTCA/DO-160 standard. The operator cannot select a group that
is not supported by the present mode of operation of the power source. Thus, if
the power source is in AC mode, an error message will be displayed when trying
to select a DC group. Operating modes such as AC or DC must be changed from
the main GUI screen. The 160 screen can remain open while switching back to
the main screen. Upon return to the 160 screen, the relevant power groups can
be selected.
Available power groups are:
A(CF)
115V / 400 Hz (CF) AC Power tests.
A(NF)
115V / 360
– 650 Hz (VF) AC Power tests.
A(WF)
115V / 360 - 800 Hz (VF) AC Power tests.
A
28 VDC Power Tests
B
28 VDC Power Tests
Z
28 VDC Power tests.
A(CF)
230V / 400 Hz (CF) AC Power tests.
A
14 VDC Power Tests
B
14 VDC Power Tests
Z
14 VDC Power tests.
The operator needs to determine what the relevant power group selection is for
the unit under test. (EUT). When switching power groups, the table data shown at
the bottom of this tab will be updated to reflect the new selection. The first test
section of the table will automatically be selected when switching power groups.
Present Power
Source Output
Settings
This section displays the programmed steady state settings that are in effect.
This information is updated each time the 160 form regains focus. The mode of
operation (AC, DC or AC+DC) is displayed for reference but cannot be changed
from this screen. When in DC mode, the frequency setting will show “DC”.
Note that changes in steady state settings can only be made from the main GUI
screen. The operator can toggle between the main screen and the 160 screen for
this purpose as needed.
Table Header
The table header is shown against a blue background and contains the table
reference designator and a description of the selected power group.
Test Table Display
The data grid at the bottom of the tab displays the selected power group test
table. It is also used to select the specific test section and number to be
executed. Thus, every test starts by selecting the desired test step from this
table. Clicking on the desired ROW does this. The selected row will be
highlighted and the associated file shown in the File Ref. Field will be loaded in
the Test Control tab.
For better readability, the user can adjust the column widths by dragging the
dividers between columns. If the window is too small to display all rows and
columns, scroll bars will appear at the bottom and/or right of the data grid.
The following fields are displayed in the test data tables.
Test
Number of the test from the RTCA/DO-160 standard. For sub
sections of a test number, this field will be blank.
Section
Test section. Some tests may only have one section in which case
this field is blank.
Subject
Description of the type of test.
Test Limits
A summary of the test limits that will be applied by this test.
Comment
Comments concerning this test or its parameters.
