6.3. Adjust date and time 

By pressing the corrisponding button and the input of the password afterwards, you can adjust 
the date and the time. It is advisable to use correct dates within the control, as the test results 
and the sistem happenings are arranged after this criterion. 

The  date and time stamp is structurated in the form Year/MONTH/DAY/HOUR/MINUTE/SECOND. 
 

6.4. Report-Memory 

Within  the  report-memory  all  relevant  system  messages  are  recorded.  This  includes  next  to  the 
calibration  data  the  change  of  the  load  cell  and  all  happenings  in  which  the  device  specific  limits 

become exceeded. The information within the meldeste can by indicated within the display by 
pressing the corrisponding button and entering the password afterwards. 
 

 6.5. Canceling the result-memory 

The  result-memory  gets  canceled  after  pressing  the  CLEAR-button  and  entering  the 
administrator-password afterwards. Canceling the memory can be necessary, especially 
if the memory capacity is exhausted. Within most of the menues, the remaining memory 
capacity gets indicated within the info-line. Before cancelling the data, you can import them into Exel by 
the help of the Fmt_Connect_Software, in this way you can save them everlasting. 

 

7.0 Connection to the PC 

The  Force  Tester  FMT-310  can  be  conected  to  the  serial  interface  of  a  PC  by  the  help  of  a  9-p  D-Sub 
connection  cable  (Art.No.:  2054).  In  this  way,  by  using  the  software  programm  FMT-Connect  (Art.No.: 
FMT-972S)  it  is  possible  to  transfer  measurment  date  and  analyze  them  in  MSExcel.  In  adition  the 
Programm Fmt_Connecto PRO (Art.No.: FMT-972P) allows to ex-and import parameter sets as CVS data 
files and to edit parameter sets beyond the control. 
Futher information can be found within the operation manual of the software Fmt_Connect. 
The connection to a PC may be necessary to bring in Software Updates (see chapter 9.3). 
To  PC’s  or  Notebook’s  without  a  seriell  interface,  it  is  possible  to  connect  an  interface  adapter  with 
cable to the control by the help of the USB/RS232. (Srt.Nr. FMT-973USB)
