Product Overview
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output TWR Vibration Control
MIMO Time Waveform Replication (TWR) Control System provides precise, real-time, multi-channel control for long waveform duplication. MIMO TWR is capable of running an unlimited number of time profiles in a defined schedule. Multiple long waveforms can be duplicated precisely on the shaker just as they were recorded. It includes Waveform Editor (EDM-WE), a flexible importing and editing tools for long waveform signals. The recording option allows the recording of time stream data at the full sample rate on all input channels. Up to 8 channels can be enabled for control and time data recording on master front-end. Up to
512 channels can be enabled for control or monitoring, and time data recording.
Key Features
- Number of Waveform Profiles: Infinite number of waveform recordings (subject to the available flash memory) is supplied simultaneously to automatically run one after the other on the test specimen.
- Maximum Number of Points: all internal flash memory space is used for storing profile data (currently 3.7 GB), which corresponds to approximately 1 billion data points. At a sampling rate of 200 samples / sec. It can replicate a waveform of about 50 days.
- Maximum Frequency Range: waveforms of up to 18 kHz (fa) can be replicated.
- Maximum Sampling Rate of Data: waveforms of any sampling rate up to 102.4kHz can be imported into the Waveform Editor tool and converted to a suitable frequency range.
- Continuous Data Recording
During vibration control, all measurement input and drive signals can continuously record to a Spider-NAS or the internal storage residing in each front-end. Users can view and analyze data files with Crystal Instruments Post Analyzer. The variable sampling rate can be enabled to simultaneously record slow-change signals together with high speed vibration data.
Safety Features
- Abort Sensitivity: a single parameter allows the ensitivity and tolerance of various safety checks to be asily adjusted between customizable lower and upper bounds
- Shaker Safety Limits: limits for shaker acceleration, velocity, and displacement
- Open Loop Detection: open loop detection for control signal and each input channel. Detection is based on maximum control loss or maximum RMS rate of change in the input channels.
- Control Limits: enforces abort time limits for control signals. Allowable ratio of points exceeding abort limits to total number points in a frame: 0 – 100%
- Max Drive Limit: maximum voltage limit for drive output
- Time Domain Limit: Raw, or RMS to any input channel

Monitoring Through EDM Cloud
All tests in EDM-VCS support status checks through EDM Cloud. With EDM Cloud support, users can set up any VCS test to upload live data or run logs for completed tests to a cloud storage space provided by Crystal Instruments, where data is securely stored in the user’s account.
The EDM Cloud website is located at https://cloud.go-ci.com. Users can access EDM Cloud from anywhere in the world to check the status of past and current tests. A secure login flow ensures the status can only be checked by authorized personnel with proper credentials. Multiple logins for accessing the same Cloud account is available.
