Integrated Productivity Tools

Test SLATE's integrated productivity tools enable the user to quickly configure utilities and perform end-to-end calibrations for any I/O channel as well as easily store and share test data with their project team.

Test SLATE Tag Configuration

Tag Configuration utilities for each measurement or control device enable you to configure each tag name. The capability to add, delete, modify, copy, or print any I/O channel information allows complete test configuration control. Information associated with I/O channels includes channel name, units, sensor name, and display precision, etc.

Test SLATE Calculated Tag Configuration

Test SLATE has several calculated tag configuration utilities. A flexible Calculated Tag Equation Builder is used to create custom formulas using any tag in the system in conjunction with standard mathematical operators, trigonometric functions, Boolean operators, and logarithmic functions with no programming required. Calculations are performed in real-time with the values available for display, storage, and additional calculations. A Statistics Builder is available to calculate the mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and variance, etc. of any tag in the system. Timer and counter routines are also included.

Test SLATE End-to-End Calibration

Calibration functions include the capability to perform end-to-end calibrations on any analog input or frequency input I/O channel. In-place sensor calibration with up to 50 stimulus points can be used to generate up to a 14th order polynomial curve fit for low-level to engineering unit data conversions. User definable groupings are allowed so like sensors can be calibrated simultaneously. As-found calibration polynomial evaluations are provided to determine if sensors are experiencing abnormal drift. Optional reports and plots can be generated with a newly accepted calibration, and the Sensor Database is automatically updated. Test SLATE's calibration also includes the ability to initiate I/O subsystem specific self-calibrations, if available. These may include millivolt insertion calibrations or system pressure calibrations.

Test SLATE Security

Test SLATE has the capability to define unique user roles. Each role can contain any number of combinations of allowable functions, which enables the fine tuning of the user capabilities.

Each role is defined as having certain capabilities within the application; for example, Role1 might have privileges including running a test, while Role2 might have privileges to only view data. The security information is accessed and assigned through the Test SLATE application by anyone who is assigned an Administration Role.
