ETAS Introduction Introduction This User’s Guide describes the ES4408.1 Load Chassis. It consists of the follow- ing chapters: • "Introduction" on page 5 This chapter. Here you will find general information on the ES4408.1 Load Chassis and other system components.
Introduction ETAS Features The ES4408.1 Load Chassis is a 19”/4 U housing for creating a system to simu- late electric loads. Using various boards makes it possible to simulate various loads to test the behavior of ECUs in an HIL system. These particularly include pull-up/pull-down loads with currents up to 150 mA and the simulation of electromagnetic injec- tors up to 20 A.
ETAS Introduction 1.1.3 Control Unit The ES4408.1 Load Chassis has one further slot on the rear for the optional ES4408CON.1 Communication Interface for the following functions: • Master controller for all boards in the ES4408.1 Load Chassis • Ethernet interface –...
Introduction ETAS 1.1.5 Connectors The ES4408.1 Load Chassis has various connectors on the back (see Fig. 1-1 on page 9) for the following purposes: • for connecting the various loads • for the measure signals of the high current loads •...
