THOR (TH) Naming of ANKL Moments (calculated channel)

Dear All,

we have coded in 2016 the calculated channels for the Ankle Moments that are proposed
for future use with the USNCAP rating.

In the NHTSA Dummy certification manuals these codes will be used without the FL2 Code "LO".

Would we like to change to the coding of NHTSA?
Aspects for the coding:
  • We have coded with "LO" as the calculation uses the Lower Tibia Loadcell in the calculation.
  • The Ankle itself do not have a large extend. So a fine location LO is not really needed.
  • As this is calculated channel, a change should not affect any data acquisition system.
My personal feeling is that a change to the "00" variant of NHTSA is sensible.

We should then also change the longnames of the measurement and remove the "lower"/"unten" parts.

Kind regards,
Dirk
