HILs

Description of the HILs table, available in the Configure section of Typhoon Test Hub.

HILs are devices that are connected to the same network, and they are automatically discovered by Officer instances. The list of accessible HILs is shown in the HILs table (Figure 1). Every HIL can have one of the following statuses: Available, Offline and Busy. For every HIL, there is an indication for its reserved, used, and running states. If a HIL is reserved, an icon will be displayed next to the status of the HIL device. An icon will also appear when the HIL is being used. By hovering over either of these icons, the name of the person who reserved or is using the device will be shown. If the HIL is in a running state (with a simulation actively occurring), an icon will be displayed.

Note: By clicking on the button, columns of the table can be customized - hidden or shown depending on the preference. Columns of the table can be reordered by using drag and drop in the table header. When positioning cursor in between two columns, cursor for column resizing will show and enable change of the column's width. All changes made to the table will be automatically preserved.

  2. Utilization tab:

    Displays a graphical representation of HIL utilization for a chosen period, where the chosen period can be set using the three dot button () on each of the charts. More information on time filter usage for charts can be found here.
