Magtrol’s Model DSP6001 Programmable Dynamometer Controller employs state-of-the-art Digital
Signal Processing technology to provide superior testing capabilities. The DSP6001 is compatible with
all TM Series In-Line Torque Transducers and is also designed to work with any Magtrol hD, Wb
or Pb Dynamometer. Therefore, any Magtrol dynamometer can be used in conjunction with any TM
Transducer with both testing devices being controlled by the same unit.

Complete PC control of the test system can be attained via the IEEE-488 or RS-232 interface and
Magtrol's M-TEST Software. This LabVIEW™-based program is equipped with ramp, curve and
manual testing capabilities to help determine the performance characteristics of a motor under test,
and also provides pass/fail testing for production line and inspection applications.
below is just one example of a system configuration in which both a Magtrol dynamometer and torque
transducer are utilized.
