8.6.4 Graphic Mode
If you select this option, you will be activating the function that creates graphic representation of
the values previously saved in the viscometer’s memory. The plots and their order of appeareance
depends on the type of analysis carried out.
For regular measurenents (no RAMP/MULTISTEP programming) the viscometer will first display a
plot with similar structure to the shown on the following screen:
This plot shows the viscosity and temperature values recorded over the previously programmed
storage time (as it is described in 8.6.1 Storage). Moreover, the number of samples of the analysis
is displayed on the top of the plot. Furthermore, the represented time scale (in seconds/division)
viscosity scale (mPa/division or cP/division) and temperature scale (ºC/division or F/division)
appears on the bottom area of the plot. In addition, the maximum values recorded for both
viscosity and temperature can be shown by pressing the the ‘
►
’ key. Press the ‘
►
’ key again to
return to the visualization of the viscosity and temperature scales. It should be noted that when the
temperature reaches the full scale value, of 300ºC, its plot is shown in solid red line. In most
applications, where the temperature of the sample is far below the full scale value, this would
indicate there is no temperature probe or it is not properly connected to the instrument.
One more plot can be obtained in regular measurements: the viscosity and speed values recorded
over the programmed storage time. Use the ‘
’ and ‘
’ keys to skip between plots. This plot shows
similar to the following screen:
