Abstract
In April 1985, Systems Engineering Division (SED), NAL was13; entrusted by Indian Air Force (IAF) with the task of upgrading and rebuilding the aging electronic control desk for the Human Centrifuge System (HCS) at the Institute of Aviation Medicine (LAM), Bangalore. This report outlines HCS existing at IAM, its working and use. The NAL designed, personal computer (PC) based electronic control desk used with the HCS to control the rotational speed of the Human Centrifuge (HC) is described. The control desk is used for running the HC to produce various (acceleration) patterns such as normal g profiles and combat g profiles which are generally experienced by pilots. The PC is used for speed reference signal generation, supervision of the sequence of operations to be carried out at the start of the centrifuge and continuous checking of the correct operation of the overall HCS.13; The NAL designed control desk functionally replaces the original control desk and all the safety features that existed earlier have been retained in the new controller. Use of PC has resulted in a flexible programmig environment and use of the latest available solid state components employed in building the controller has resulted in a reliable system.
