cRIO FaultSim6

cRIO FaultSim6

The "cRIO FaultSim6" enables realistic simulation of electrical small signal faults in National Instruments Compact-RIO systems. It has been specifically designed for simulating fault patterns in conjunction with the cRIO modules "cRIO Resolver Simulator" and "cRIO Position Sensor Simulation."  
However, it can also be used independently for simulating fault conditions in various testing environments and offers precise reproduction of fault conditions for functional, end-of-line, or life cycle tests. 


Technical Description 

The FaultSim6 module is used for the simulation of electrical small signal faults and is employed to expand testing capabilities in combination with the cRIO modules "cRIO Resolver Simulator" and "cRIO Position Sensor Simulation." It allows for the simulation of various fault patterns such as: 

  • Short circuit (e.g., to ground or to another line) 

  • Line interruption 

  • Interference from noise or signal distortions 

By combining multiple modules, different test configurations can be realized. The various fault conditions can be realized via two fault buses. 

The fault bus on a fault simulation card (often used in the electronics and automotive industries) is a special wiring system designed to deliberately simulate fault conditions in electrical circuits or control devices.
