The HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Test) LED Counter System, designed for Qorvo Inc. This innovative system combines precision, redundancy, and user-friendly controls to streamline testing processes and ensure accurate data collection.

Overview of the HALT LED Counter System The HALT LED Counter System is a comprehensive setup designed for durability and precision in testing environments. It integrates a master display, a secondary redundant display, a keypad interface, and photoelectric sensors for seamless operation. The system is ideal for life-cycle testing, such as in durability studies for components and systems. It not only counts events but also controls the testing process, providing fail-safes and options for flexibility.

Key Features Master and Secondary Display:

– Master Display: The primary interface where the user interacts with the system. It shows the count in real-time and allows full control over the testing process.

– Secondary Display: A redundant display for monitoring the count in another location or for added reliability.

– Photoelectric Polarized Reflective Sensor: This sensor detects each cycle of the testing machine by sensing the beam break. Highly reliable in detecting motion, even in challenging environments with reflective surfaces.

– Keypad for Control: – Set Maximum Count: Users can input the maximum count threshold using the keypad.

– View Maximum Count: Quickly check the set maximum count. – Reset Count: Reset the counter to zero to start a new testing cycle.

– Pause Counting: Temporarily disable the sensor to lock out further counting without stopping the system.

– Stop Incrementing: Prevent the display from updating while keeping the system operational.

Relay Activation:

– Once the maximum count is reached, a relay activates to stop the testing process automatically. This ensures the machine halts at the desired cycle count, preventing over-testing and protecting the equipment.

Dip Switch Configuration: The master display includes dip switches for advanced customization:

– Skip One Count: Ignore every other sensor trigger, useful for machines with multiple strokes per cycle.

– Increment on Opposite Stroke: Configure the system to count on the reverse motion of the testing machine, allowing more versatile operation.

How It Works Setup: Install the photoelectric sensor on the testing machine to detect the beam break. Connect the master display, secondary display, and relay to the system.

Configuration: Use the keypad to set the maximum count, check the threshold, or reset the counter. Adjust the dip switches for specific counting requirements, such as skipping counts or detecting reverse strokes.

Operation: As the machine cycles, the sensor increments the count on both the master and secondary displays. Once the count reaches the preset maximum, the relay activates to stop the machine.

Pause or Stop: Use the keypad to pause the count, effectively locking out the sensor, or stop the display from updating if necessary.

Applications This system is perfect for:

– Durability Testing: Track the life cycle of components like springs, levers, or electronics.

– Quality Control: Ensure consistent performance across products. Industrial Automation: Monitor and control repetitive testing tasks with precision.

Why Choose the HALT LED Counter System? Precision and Flexibility: Customizable counting options with dip switches and keypad controls.

Reliable detection with the photoelectric polarized reflective sensor.

Redundancy: The secondary display ensures count data is visible in multiple locations.

Automation and Safety: Automatic relay activation stops the machine at the desired count, preventing overuse or damage. User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive keypad design for easy setup and operation.

Conclusion The HALT LED Counter System is a robust and versatile solution for any industrial testing application. Its advanced features, including relay activation, dual displays, and flexible configuration options, make it an essential tool for ensuring accuracy and efficiency in your testing process.
