Test method and system for dynamic positioning systems
First Claim
1. A test system for a marine vessel (0) control system (2) arranged for receiving real measurement signals (7) from sensors (8) and for output of control signals (13) to actuators (16, 17, 18), characterized by a signal modifying computer (80) arranged for being connected for receiving one or more of said real measurement signals (7), said signal modifying computer (80) being arranged for modifying said real measurement signals (7) into modified measurement signals (70) that depend on real values of said real measurement signals;
- said signal modifying computer (80) arranged for sending said modified measurement signals (70) to said control system (2), said one or more modified measurement signal (70) input replacing some or all of said real measurement signal (8) input;
said control system (2) arranged for acting upon said one or more modified measurement signals (70) and remaining unaffected real measurement signals (7);
so as for enabling testing of said control system (2) function on errors represented by said modified measurement signal (70) imagined to occur in one or more sensors (8)

Abstract
A method for testing a marine vessel (0) control system (2), said system (2) receiving real measurement signals (7) from sensors (8) and providing control signals (13) to actuators (16, 17, 18), characterized in
- connecting a signal modifying computer (80) and receiving one or more of said real measurement signals (7),
- said signal modifying computer (80) modifying said real measurement signals (7) into modified measurement signals (70) that depend on the real value of said real measurement signals (7);
- said signal modifying computer (80) sending said modified measurement signals (70) to said control system (2), said one or more modified measurement signal (70) input replacing some or all of said real measurement signal (8) input;
- said control system (2) acting upon said one or more modified measurement signals (70) and remaining unaffected real measurement signals (7);
for testing whether said control system (2) acts in a desired way on errors represented by said modified measurement signal (70) imagined to occur in one or more sensors (8).
