Dyn-Loc V Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide will assist you in getting a Dyn-Loc V eddy-current dynamometer controller configured and running
as efficiently as possible. The Dyn-Loc V User Manual is referenced many times in the upcoming sections and should be
consulted as needed to obtain additional information regarding each and every aspect of the Dyn-Loc V controller.
The following items are required to complete this quick start guide. Review the list and begin after all necessary items
have been procured.
Dyn-Loc V User Manual
DS820 Eddy Current Power Amplifier Unit User Manual
Various types of multi-conductor shielded cable for transducer connections (see table at end of this document)
DSUB connectors, pins, connector shells, and crimping tool (see table at end of this document)
To complete all steps in this quick start guide, it is also required that the dynamometer be connected to a device-undertest (DUT). The DUT must be capable of rotating via some type of speed control or throttle position control. If the DUT
is not yet operational, is it generally not advisable to energize the eddy-current dynamometer. Feel free to connect the
speed and torque transducers and perform many of the other configuration tasks; but wait until the DUT is operational
before enabling and tuning the Dyn-Loc V controller.
Below is a list of the steps required to complete this quick start guide. Perform the steps in the listed order.
