Chroma has developed two software modules that integrate a DC power supply and an electronic load for battery pack testing. The Battery Charge/Discharge Testing Software programs the test sequence, loop and stop conditions. The measured voltage, current and power data is recorded in a file for future analysis. The Dynamic Current Waveform Simulation Software records to an Excel compatible file actual discharge current waveforms from the battery and instruct the electronic load to sink the same current. This is used to simulate real world applications and evaluate the battery pack in the lab.
Chroma's VI Soft Panels allow instruments to be easily controlled using point-and-click software screens. Panels are Labview.exe files which communicate with instruments via available RS232 or GPIB interfaces. Softpanels are sold separately and operate with in most modern operating systems and computers. Panels allow for setting and read back from instruments as well as specialized functions including ISO, Energy Star, IEC, MIL-STD-704 testing. They are easily setup and initiated from graphical panels.
Chroma's Solar Application Soft Panel is a straightforward and effective software tool that utilizes Chroma’s industry leading 63600 series DC Electronic Loads to generate PV module I-V curves and track their Maximum Power Point. Through an intuitive graphical user interface, the Soft Panel allows users to record and analyze a module’s electrical characteristics and output behavior without having to configure any hardware. These Soft Panels are now available.
The newest Chroma DC Power Supplies provide ISO16750-2 Electronic Load testing for automotive applications by incorporating ISO16750-2 standards into its testing software. The software addresses standards including starting profile, reset behavior at voltage drop, momentary drop in supply voltage, and slow decrease and increase of voltage. This integration makes the 62024-80-60 suitable for testing LED headlights, Electronic Control Unit (ECU), Wiper Motors, Electronic Window, Car Stereo, Global Positioning System (GPS), Charger and other devices during R&D or quality assurance stages.
EST software controls the analyzer to perform electrical safety integrated tests from the PC. The EST software allows you to save test procedures and data directly as well as exporting the data EXCEL files for quick management reporting and statistical analysis. Features program edit & GO/NG control, data bank, report function, statistical analysis function, authority management function & more!
PowerPro III includes extended reporting capabilities, statistic and management functions, various test document generation and system administration. The unique report wizard and generator provide the total solution for any documentation requirement. It allows users to integrate different types of presentations, like tabular test data, DSO waveform and correlation charts in M/S Word format. Users may also edit and store report formats for future use, thus saving time creating test reports. The Statistic function provides offthe- shelf statistical reporting tools. All the test conditions defined in the test program as well as the test readings can be stored and analyzed by the statistic report function. The report and raw data may be printed out or stored in a file.
