TestStar Login Window

Type in your user name and password and press the OK pushbutton to start TestStar.

If you don't have a user name, or your user name does not work, see your system administrator.

How it Works

Your user name starts TestStar with a configuration that is customized for your use. Your startup configuration consists of three records. These records can be changed to your preferences.

The Controller Definition file contains information about the sensors, control channels, and control modes.

The Configuration file contains the settings for all of the parameters of the Setup and Controller menus (in the main TestStar window).

The Unit Assignment Set file contains a set of default units that are applied to all TestStar parameters that do not have specific units assigned.

If you are the system administrator, you should really be reading Chapter 6 in the Installation manual and Chapter 8 in the Reference manual.
