Operator Manual
Using a Mitutoyo Mini-Processor
The example used here is the Mitutoyo DP-1 VR, but other
Mitutoyo mini-processors may be used.
The DP-1 VR mini-processor is an easy-to-use instrument for
data analysis and statistical evaluation of
CAPTEST
data.
The integral printer documents both the
CAPTEST
data and
the results of analysis.
Before using the equipment, please read the DP-1 VR
operating instructions. Some aspects of operation with
CAPTEST
will differ.
The DP-1 VR [DATA] key is disabled.
CAPTEST
sends the
data to the DP-1 VR:
ON
>
ZERO
.
Time-controlled data acquisition by DP-1 VR is not
possible.
Connection and use
Ensure that both the
CAPTEST
and DP-1 VR are switched off.
Connect the
CAPTEST
to the DP-1 VR with the enclosed
special Mitutoyo printer cable.
First switch on the DP-1 VR [Power] and then the
CAPTEST
(
ON
key).
To clear any stored DP-1 VR data, press the [CL] key.
After you have taken a measurement, you can send
CAPTEST
data to DP-1 VR by pressing the
ON
key; data
will be stored simultaneously in the
CAPTEST
and the
DP-1 VR, so it is not necessary to transmit complete
CAPTEST
data to DP-1 VR at the end of a batch for the
purpose of later analysis.
