7.3 Calibration
The durometer can be calibrated by hard flat plate, standard thickness
block or other rubber whose hardness is known.
1. To press indenter on the flat plate, standard thickness block or the
rubber whose hardness is known. Keeping the presser foot
contact the samples closely for a while to stabilize, the LCD
shows the hardness value.
2. Input the theory value (calibration value). If the flat plate is
applied, input “100”. When standard thickness block is applied,
please enter 50. If the rubber is applied, please enter the rubber’s
hardness.
3.
To press “
” to confirm the calibration. Or to press “
” to
abort the calibration.
7.4 Test setup
Under Test Setup, Test Mode, Test Times, Tolerance, Grubbs Error,
Workpiece, Dwell Time can be set.
7.4.1 Test Mode
There are three kinds of mode: average value mode (AVE), maximum
value mode (MAX) and maximum average value mode (MAX-AVE),
1. AVE: During one sampling process, the durometer will record 20
values and calculate the average value of this 20 value
automatically. The average value will show on the screen. Under
this mode, the statistic time can be set. After one measure
process is finished, the durometer will calculate the average value
and Range of the data until now automatically. If the statistic time is meet, the last average value
will be saved as the measure result.
2. MAX: During one sampling process, the durometer will record 20
values automatically and take the maximum value as the current
result. Un
der this mode, the statistic times can’t be set.
3. MAX.AVE: During one sampling process, the durometer will
record 20 values automatically and take the maximum value as
the current result. Under this mode, the statistic times setting can
be set. After one measure process is finished, the durometer will
calculate the average value and Range of data until now automatically. The average value of
maximum value of every measuring will be calculated and this value will be taken as the last
result
7.4.2 Test Times
The statistic times can be set under this menu. The maximum statistic times
setting is 9.
