  • Page 3: Dts Support

    DTS has support engineers worldwide with extensive product knowledge and crash test experience to help via telephone, e-mail or on-site visits. The best way to contact a DTS support engineer is to submit a request through the DTS Help Center portal (support.dtsweb.com).

  • Page 4: Introducing The Slice Pro Dim

    Each channel is independently programmable for either contact-closure or voltage event signals. The SLICE PRO DIM integrates with plug- and-play ease into a SLICE PRO system and may be programmed for use as a level-trigger for all modules in that system.

  • Page 5: Using The Voltage Input

    Any channel may be configured as a level-trigger channel via the software. When this channel is triggered, all other modules in the SLICE PRO chain are also triggered. Specifying a level-trigger channel does not prevent the SLICE PRO DIM from responding normally to a hardware trigger.

  • Page 6: Sampling Rates

    Appendix D. Data Memory Size With 15 GB of flash memory available for data storage, the SLICE PRO DIM can record ~14 minutes of data at the maximum sampling rate (9 channels at 1 Msps or 18 channels at 500 ksps).

  • Page 7: Leds

    SLICE PRO DIM User’s Manual March 2018 LEDs The SLICE PRO DIM has 2 LED indicators. At system power up, the red-green-blue LED initialization sequence is performed by the status LED followed by the power LED. LED behavior is summarized below.

  • Page 8: Basic Care And Handling

    Crashworthy SLICE PRO equipment should be grounded to each other and bolted to the test vehicle. SLICE PRO LAB modules should be bolted to the rack and the rack properly grounded. DTS recommends checking continuity between the enclosures of each unit to confirm resistance readings of <1 ohm.
  • Page 9 SLICE PRO DIM User’s Manual March 2018 WARNING: Due to battery chemistry, do not operate SLICE PRO DAS at temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or in excess of 60°C (140°F). support.dtsweb.com 13000-30770-MAN (Rev. 3)

  • Page 10: Power Management

    A good power source is of paramount importance. SLICE PRO DIMs should be powered from a SLICE PRO Controller. (One Controller can support up to 4 SLICE PRO modules.) Be sure to consider any power drop due to cable length.

  • Page 11: Power-Up And Power-Down Procedures

    March 2018 Power-up and Power-down Procedures The SLICE PRO DIM is powered up when the proper signal is connected at the UP interface connector. This is typically accomplished via a SLICE PRO Controller. Power-up of the module takes 10 seconds (USB Controller) or between 1-2 minutes (Ethernet Controller), after which communication is enabled.

  • Page 12: Appendix A: Lemo Connector Information

    Suggested Connector Sources DTS uses LEMO connectors on the SLICE PRO DIM. If you need to purchase connectors, we suggest first going to LEMO directly (www.lemo.com). Their web site and worldwide sales team are very helpful. Should you have difficulty obtaining a specific part number, they can suggest connector variations or alternates and explain options that may be useful for your particular application.
