LANGUAGE
Choose your language.
UNIT
Choose units of measure:
for force measurement
F
:
N
or
lbs
for pressure measurement
p:
bar
or
psi
(choose between force and pressure measurement on the screen
PRESSURE/FORCE, see chap. 5.6)
for displacement measurement

µm
or
th
“ (thousandth inch)
for temperature measurement
T

PROGRAM SELECTION
Choose the measuring program selection:
internal
(default) means with the toggle wheel (necessary when working
with bus systems)
external
means by external hardware input at connector X57.
Choose the coding for the program number input/output:
BCD
(binary-coded decimal) or
BIN
(binary).
RENEW MAIN VIEW
Refreshing the main view takes time, so if you use external program
selection deactivate this feature in order to speed up the program
changeover.
Also deactivate this feature if you configure quadrant windows for SPC (see
chap. 5.4). These SPC quadrant windows have to be configured the same for
each program, otherwise the SPC chart will be reset.
Deactivation of this option is therefore advantageous when rapidly switching
programs and using the SPC charts, as the main display need only be
configured once.
LIST SEPARATOR, DECIMAL SIGN
The MG3 Hot Bar stores its data in a CSV (comma separated value)
compatible format.
So the used sign for the list separator and the decimal sign on the MG3 Hot
Bar must be the same as the one used on your PC.
Choose between semicolon (;) and colon (,) for the list separator and
between point (.) and colon (,) for the decimal sign.
Note:
You find the used signs on your PC in the system settings by the point
regional settings.
MAINS FREQUENCY
Select the used mains frequency:
~50 Hz
or
~60 Hz
.
Wrong settings will cause wrong measurements!
