base. These test results Input Current (Amps)were then used to create theGUI, and provided a basis forthe proper scaling of entries for Figure 8. Calibration curves: Voltage and current responsemapping inputs to outputs. See to respective voltage and current inputsFigure 8. This test, conducted Page 22.269.9on the Navy site at Bayview,Idaho, and following a specific test plan, verified that the ICS board connected to the MOXAcard controlled the charger in response to the proper SCPI commands. The data obtained was theoutput voltage and current of the charger with respect to the input voltage and

considering the previously mentioned white papers from NI [7]and [8], as well as consulting with the industry end user for the planned product, a decision wasmade to go with the electromechanical relays over the reed relays. The OKCET laboratoryspecifications required to match the specifications and functionality of their switch matrixsystem. One of these specifications is an allowed switching current of up to 2 A. This highercurrent specification is only available with the bulkier electromechanical relays. There are twodifferent electromechanical relays available that are SwitchBlock compatible, 4x71 and 8x34.The 8x34 card was chosen, because it allows for a minimum of 8 simultaneous connections atany time. The predicted load of the OKCET laboratory
