Module Configuration

Click to open the module configuration file ltt_module_config.xml.

For training or demonstration purposes you can take the default module configuration and go on with your setup.

The module configuration's main purpose is to configure the drivers for LTT standard hardware, which is:

  • power supplies (for the DUT's)

  • temperature sensors (for climatic chambers)

  • temperature chamber contact (TCC) (digital I/O)

  • uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

Each LTT hardware is configured by a <Module name="xxx"></Module> block. The name attribute determines the type of hardware and the concrete instance of it.

A LTT can have multiple instances of a power supply and/or temperature sensor, but only one TCC and UPS.

The name attribute value is composed of a predefined prefix and an optional index number starting with 1. The index number is mandatory for those hardware modules, which are able to have more than one instance, even if only one instance is used.

More than one possible?

PS

power supply

yes

TS

temperature sensor

yes

TCC

temperature chamber contact (digital I/O)

no

UPS

uninterruptible power supply unit

no

After installation there is a default module configuration, containing 2 simulated power supplies and 1 simulated temperature sensor.

Each module has at least a path parameter, which is mandatory and pointing to the driver file for this module. A module driver is a file with the extension .lvlibp. All so far existing module drivers are located at

50_LTT_SW\LTT TS\lib\IRS.Mod

The path to the module driver should be provided relative to the 50_LTT_SW\LTT TS folder.

Each module type comes with a default simulation driver. That way you can run the LTT SW without having any actual hardware.

Any other parameter a module may need is provided in form of a <Parameter name="xxx" value="yyy"/> block. The parameters of each possible module type are explained in the following sub chapters.
