A STIM that contains one or more actuators would be called an actuator STIM. If the actuator is a solenoid or valve actuator, it would be called a solenoid STIM, or a valve STIM respectively. • How is an actuator STIM set? To set an actuator, a 5-step process can be used: Convert a setting in SI units to a raw actuator setting using constants stored in TEDs . • Select the channel (the actuator that the information will be sent to) • Write the raw actuator setting. • Trigger the actuator. • Wait until the STIM indicates the action is complete. • What can an actuator STIM be used for? An actuator STIM can be used to control analog actuators and digital output actuators such as valves and motors, relays and solenoids, respectively.
