Abstract
A control system and process method for reducing energy consumption of flight simulators includes electronic circuitry to automatically control the starting and stopping of the large motors that drive the hydraulic pumps for the motion system. The electronic circuitry monitors existing signals in the simulator motion and control loading cabinet and determines when the motors need to be started or stopped automatically. The circuitry generates the necessary outputs to start and stop the motors at the user level, and interfaces to the manual (user) motor control switches. The Energy Saving Control System (E.S.C.S.) provides a safe and reliable means of producing substantial electrical energy savings.
