ABSTRACT:
An input stimulus provides a necessary input to a microprocessor implemented control system. An output signal from the control system may fire one or more perforating guns of a perforating apparatus or it may change the state of a valve in a well testing apparatus. The input stimuli may comprise a pressure pulse transmitted down a well annulus disposed between a tubing string and borehole casing, a pressure pulse transmitted internally down the tubing string, an output of a strain gauge for sensing the set down weight of a well tool disposed in the borehole, or an output of an inductive coupler connected to the well surface.
