8.11 IO Lines Setting Starrett test frames are equipped with a digital I/O termination panel on the back of the test frame. FMS and FMD test frames have the digital I/O panel. MMS and MMD material test frames, which may be used with your L3 software when very high precision is required, feature the digital I/O panel plus an analog I/O panel. The I/O capability available to users REQUIRES that the system is equipped with the optional Automation Builder software application. NOTE The I/O capabilities on any Starrett test frame cannot be used unless the system being used is equipped with a licensed version of the optional Automation Builder software. 8.11.1 Optional Automation Builder Application The L3 Automation Builder is an optional software package that is used with the L3 Test Builder application. The Automation Builder software enhances the functionality provided by the Test Builder. Combined with the Test Builder application, the Automation Builder adds these functions to your L3 system: • Utilize the digital input/outputs on your MMx or FMx test stand • Incorporate conditional branching within your test setups for advanced test method control and integration with ancillary equipment
The Automation Builder are discussed in a separate User Guide. For details on the Automation Builder and its use, please refer to User Guide 8- Using the Optional Automation Builder Software .
