Test Procedures
(1) Mount the Porton-man on the drive frame in the testing area.
(2) Configure motion parameters (walking, running, sitting, kneeling, stair climbing, arm movements).
(3) Connect the data acquisition system to monitor sensors.
(4) Start the test sequence via the control software.
(5) Perform the desired motion tasks while the manikin collects thermal, pressure, and barrier data.
(6) Analyze recorded data in real-time or post-test for performance evaluation.
(7) Repeat as necessary for different clothing sets or test conditions.
Maintenance Information
(1) Regularly inspect mechanical joints, actuators, and sensors for wear.
(2) Calibrate sensors and data acquisition modules according to manufacturer recommendations.
(3) Clean surfaces and mechanical components using non-corrosive agents.
(4) Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture that could damage electronics.
(5) Maintain logs of test sequences, calibration, and maintenance activities.
(6) Ensure software updates are applied to control and analysis systems for optimal performance.
