VECTO VECTO is a tool that allows you to open multiple VETAS at the same time to configure and read it. It makes it easier to handle the device and provides greater clarity than the usual terminal. AATESTEO Excellence in drivetrain testing

VECTO installation

VECTO installation  To start the installation execute the „VECTO_SETUP_XXXX.exe

• Select your target installation path• Select an installation type Type Full (Recommended) VECTO, Drivers and Manuals VECTO only Custom

■ Follow the next steps of the setup ■ Finally check your settings ■ If drivers have been selected for installation, a second installation screen appears ■ Follow the installation instructions

Device selection

Device selection  In this window, the connected devices can be viewed and opened  You just need to double click on the appropriate list entry to open the devic

Serial port where the device is connected Device Description Detailed VETAS type description. To use all functions of VECtO be sure that the VETAS has one of the following VETAS type descriptions: Serial port state: ■ Closed: Serial port is closed ■ Open: Serial port is open ■ Error: Serial port is used by another program

Control screen

On the left there are general Information about the connected VETAS On the right side one of the various functions can be selected

Values screen

Left side shows different measurement variables. The types of available measurement values depend on the connected VETAS The chart plotter records the selected measured values

The following functions can be activated in the measurement tab: ■ Measure - Resets the analogue test signal ■ Zero - Performs a zero adjustment on torque and angle Within the calibration tab, the analogue test signal can be adjusted: ■ 0% - Voltage level of the calibrated output (usually 0V) ■ 50% - Voltage level of the calibrated output (usually 5V) ■ 100% - Voltage level of the calibrated output (usually 10V)

VETAS settings

■ On the left you see the description of the setting. Next to the description, the current value is displayed ■ On the right side you can see a short information about the setting ■ If you like to change settings, just double click on an entry. A new window will appear

You can set a new value by ■ Selecting from the combo box Or by typing a valid value in the text field

■ After the new value has been set, the check box in the left side of the window will be checked. That means that this value is changed when you click on “Apply” ■ If you do not want set the new value, just uncheck the check box

Data can only be read if the saved VETAS type matches the type of the connected device. With this function you have the possibility to save the current VETAS configuration ■ Every value that is selectable in the settings menu will be saved ■ Power supply settings are also included (Not visible in the settings list) This option gives you the possibility to load a saved configuration file ■ After the values have been loaded, you can send them to the device by clicking the button “Apply” ■ The supply voltage is also set

Power settings

In this screen you can adjust the supply voltage ■ The optimal frequency is about: ■ “Auto detect” will determine the optimal voltage

Terminal Please do not change any values if you do not know what effect it has. With wrong values the device might not work properly! Here you see the “Terminal-Screen”  The device can also be configured through the terminal and is operated via the keyboard  For example:  Press “1”  the cursor will jump to “Sensitivity1+ [Hz/Nm]”  Enter the new valid value und confirm it wit
