Function

Description page 2

Capture Length

You can set a value between 1 and 1280 seconds. This value

represents the duration of curve capturing in capture mode which

depends on the sampling rate:

Sampling rate 6 Hz: 1 ~ 1280 seconds

Sampling rate 12 Hz: 1 ~ 640 seconds

Sampling rate 25 Hz: 1 ~ 320 seconds

Sampling rate 50 Hz: 1 ~ 160 seconds

Sampling rate 100 Hz: 1 ~ 80 seconds

Sampling rate 200 Hz: 1 ~ 40 seconds

Sampling rate 400 Hz: 1 ~ 20 seconds

Sampling rate 800 Hz: 1 ~ 10 seconds

Sampling rate 1600 Hz: 1 ~ 5 seconds

F/P Boundary

You can set a value between 1 and 99999. This setting is used during

peak value measurement to determine the first peak value. When you

press the Arrow Right key, a new peak value measurement will start.

Meanwhile, the values peak-to-peak (Vmax), valley-to-peak (Vmin)

and new peak (Vnew) are updated continuously. For example, if 10 is

set as the criterion, Vmax or Vmin will be counted as the first peak

value when the absolute value of (Vmax - Vnew) or (Vmin - Vnew) is

above 10.

Serial Port

This port is used to control the real-time data transfer. The following

parameters can be set:

Prohibit: The real-time data transfer of the serial interface is

prohibited.

Key/Order: A single output will take place when you press the Up key

or when an output command is received. When the force gauge is

connected to a computer, the programmes on the computer will

automatically disable the output function.

Change: A single output will take place when the measuring data

change.

Stabilize: A single output will take place when the reading stabilises.

Consecutive: The measuring data are transferred without interruption.

Auto Power Off

This function reduces the energy consumption. The force gauge will

automatically power off when it has not been used for a certain period

of time.

Max Charge V

This window shows the maximum voltage of the battery.

Clear Storage

Here, you can delete saved measurement reports and curves.

Important information:

When the memory is full, all data will automatically be deleted to

enable new data to be saved.

Factory Test

Only relevant for customer service.

S/N

This window shows the serial number of the device which cannot be

changed.

Capture Trigger

Here, you can set a value between -99999 and +99999. The range of

values depends on the set unit. This parameter stipulates the
