Hydraulic
crosshead
positioning
control
Optional control that raises and lowers the crosshead. The crosshead must not
be moved while it is locked. Load frames without hydraulic positioning require
the operator to use a hoist to support and move the crosshead.
6
Emergency
Stop (E-
Stop)
Removes the hydraulic power and stops the test program. Press this button to
remove hydraulic power, and twist the switch clockwise to release it. Use the
Emergency Stop
button to shut down your test if something unexpected
should happen.
7
Actuator
velocity
limiting
switch
Controls actuator velocity. There are two positions:
l
One for reduced fluid flow to the actuator resulting in slow speed of the
actuator rod for specimen installation.
l
One for full fluid flow resulting in normal, high-speed testing operation.

Software Overview
Running a test on an MTS Landmark load frame system typically requires the use of the following two
MTS software programs:
MTS FlexTest (Series 793) Controller Software
Operators primarily use MTS FlexTest controller software to set up the station for testing. While there
are a number of applications that are part of MTS FlexTest software, this manual focuses on using the
Station Manager application to set limits, display sensor data, and move the actuator for specimen
installation.
MTS Multipurpose (MP) Express Application
The MTS Multipurpose Express application is a light version of the MTS Multipurpose Elite application
and is designed specifically for test operators. Operators primarily use MTS TestSuite MP Express to
run tests and generate reports.
MTS FlexTest (Series 793) Controller Software - Station Manager
Application
Purpose
The Station Manager application is primarily used to set up your station for a test. The major tasks
necessary to prepare the station for the Example HCF Test include:
l
Opening a Station
l
Using the Main Window to Open Other Windows
l
Setting Limits
