[0060] Specifically, before conducting the engine electrical performance test, the test task import module is first executed, including the test item import unit, the test process import unit, the system information import unit and the display criterion import unit. The work of each unit of the test task import module is as follows:

[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, the test item importing unit is used to import test items and corresponding test items. In this embodiment, the test items include: corresponding loop, insulation, current curve, and airtightness inspection items when the test object is a valve, corresponding loop and insulation items when the test object is a cable, corresponding zero-position voltage and insulation items when the test object is a sensor, corresponding full-scale items when the test object is a converter, and corresponding winding items when the test object is a motor assembly. Each test item corresponds to a number of test items. In other possible embodiments, the test items and test items can also be set according to actual test requirements.

[0062] Test process import unit: used to import the test process of each test item. According to the requirements of the test object, hardware characteristics, characteristics of the data acquisition board, etc., the test process and process parameters of each test item are imported, and the corresponding test timing is assigned to different test items. First open the input and output channels, then enable the mode signal, then enable the signal source, start the acquisition task, after the acquisition is completed, disable the signal source, disable the mode signal, and finally close the input and output channels. Among them, the "open", "close", "enable", and "disable" actions are all switch signals, and the effective state is related to the hardware.

[0063] System information importing unit: imports the system information of each test item, which includes entering the task code and equipment serial number in this embodiment.

[0075] Exemplarily, the test result output module includes: an algorithm processing unit and a test result storage unit.

[0076] The algorithm processing unit is used to store a plurality of processing algorithms in the form of an algorithm library, and use the processing algorithms to process the original test data to obtain the test results.

[0085] The test result display unit compares the test results processed by the algorithm with the display judgment conditions of the display judgment analysis module to confirm whether the test results are normal or qualified. Among them, the test results of the loop test, insulation test, zero voltage test, and full-scale test can be displayed in a table form, and the current curve test of the valve is drawn in a curve form.

[0086] The test result output unit automatically generates a report after each test item is completed. The report consists of a title, a header, a body, and a page number.

[0093] Step C, switch the test object.

[0094] Step D, determine whether all test items of the current test object have been tested, if so, return to step B, otherwise proceed to the next step.

[0095] Step E: switch the test item.

[0096] Step F, determine whether all test items of the current test item have been tested, if so, return to step D, otherwise proceed to the next step.

[0097] Step G, switch test items, parse test item flow, output test item results, and return to step F.

[0098] The embodiment of the present application realizes the automation of engine electrical performance testing by integrating a processor, functional modules, a power supply system, a test interface and electrical performance testing software, thereby avoiding the uncertainty of manual testing.
