Vehicle Performance Recorder (VPR)/ HMMWV (High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle) Interface Verification

摘要

The High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle is scheduled to undergo Initial Production Testing starting July 1984. It has been proposed that the Vehicle Performance Recorder be used during the endurance portions of this test to provide monitoring of the vehicle inputs. This report describes the instrumentation used and testing accomplished in the time frame of 26 March through 6 April 1984 to validate the Vehicle Performance Recorder/High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle interface and to determine a suitable indication of the power train loading. Among the conclusions reached is that the Vehicle Performance Recorder can be used for the indicated purpose, and the recommendation is made that it be used during the endurance portion of the Initial Production Test of the High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle.
