4 Using TCE
The following chapter provides detailed information on performing the various tasks
available using TCE. These include defining a test setup, calibrating transducer inputs,
running a full test, monitoring eDAQ
lite
status and transducer inputs before, during
and after test runs, uploading test data for analysis, configuring remote control
operation and setting up a network of eDAQ
lite
/eDAQ systems.
4.1
Defining a Test
Use the TCE setup windows to define a new test or modify an existing test. The steps
involve in defining a test include: specifying one or several eDAQ
lite
systems used in
the test by creating a network node or a set of network nodes; configuring the
hardware layers and modules installed on the defined nodes; and adding transducer
channels, computed channels and DataModes™ to acquire, manipulate and store test
data.
4.1.1
Adding a Network Node
To add an eDAQ
lite
network node and define its communications and network
configuration, select Add in the test ID/network node window. For a single eDAQ
lite
test, add one network node. For a set of networked eDAQ
lite
/eDAQ systems add a
network node for each eDAQ
lite
/eDAQ in the test.
NOTE
If using only a single eDAQ
lite
, this step is optional. A hardware query updates all
required fields in the network node setup according to the current communications
preferences.
IP Address or Host Name
Specify the IP address or host name of the desired eDAQ
lite
.
Connect Timeout Period
Specify the desired timeout period in seconds for initiating communications with the
eDAQ
lite
. The default value of five seconds should work well for dedicated ethernet
communications with an eDAQ
lite
that is not on a network hub. Longer timeouts may
be required for communications with an eDAQ
lite
on a busy or slow network hub or
on a wireless ethernet connection.
NOTE
The communications I/O timeout, used for all PC to eDAQ
lite
communications, equals
the connect timeout period for periods greater than ten seconds. Otherwise, TCE sets
the I/O timeout period to the minimum timeout period of ten seconds.
