8. Design Summary Power Control Circuit  12 user inputs  Connection to Labview switch Measurement Control Circuit (inputs)  12 user inputs  Labview connection not shown “Splitting” Terminal Block  Split for measurement Two NI Switches  Channel connections shown “Multimeter” Terminal Block Multimeter – connections shown (hi, low, etc.)

9. Power Control Circuit Inputs 13-24 are from the ballast. 25 and 26 are 120VAC inputs. NI Switch Connections

10. Measurement Control, Splitting To NI Switches Inputs 1-12 are from ballast. Connection to power and NI switching shown in the Power Control Circuit

13. System Testing Results All relay box connections active  6 “coils” (known resistors) were connected to the relay box and measured with the multimeter 4-wire measurement to ensure all connections were working properly and no internal resistance was found Labview code troubleshooting  “NaN” value removal, timing adjustments, etc. Complete ballast test at steady state using Labview to run the test and to obtain the results (see next slide)

15. Successes, Incomplete, Future Work Success  Purchasing multimeter, laptop, data acquisition software  Creating Labview code  Running a successful test at 120VAC Incomplete  Rolling enclosure, Amphenol cable Future Work  Contain the test in a rolling enclosure  Run a test at 600 VAC  After double-checking code and switches to make sure Labview components will never see the volts  Convert small gaged wire connecting PXI to relay box into an Amphenol cable  Staging the ballast power with a secondary set of relays
