Coordinate System

SWIFT 10 MC Sensors Hardware Overview

The SWIFT coordinate system is transducer-based, with the origin located at the

center of the transducer. Positive loads are defined as applied to the outer ring of

the transducer.

• Vertical force (Fz) is positive up.

• Longitudinal force (Fx) follows the right-hand rule, consistent with Fz as

described above.

You can change to the MTS Model 329 Road Simulator convention or to any

coordinate system by changing the polarities in the calibration file. For

instructions on how to change the coordinate system polarities, see the chapter,

Setting up the Transducer Interface beginning on page 47.
