MicroFET2 Features 

The digital read-out of the microFET2 is shown in two Liquid 
Crystal Displays (LCD's). There are two displays: 
 
PEAK FORCE: 

 

real-time read-out of force during testing 

 

the maximum force applied during the test (peak force) is 
displayed after testing when the applied force is released 

 
DURATION/Secs: 

 

the duration of the test is shown in seconds. 

 

on the left of this display a 'H' (high) or a 'L' (low) is 
shown. Look under THRESHOLD. 

 
Next to the two displays there are two buttons and a switch 
with the functions: 
THRESHOLD  = red button 
RESET    

 

= orange button 

ON/OFF   

 

= red switch 

 
THRESHOLD: 

 

This sets a High (H) or Low (L) threshold for the minimal 
force to start the test with. 

 

Low Threshold recording of test data begins at 3,6 N. 

 

High Threshold recording of test data begins at 13 N. 

 

The default setting of the microFET2 is at High Threshold. 

 
RESET: 

 

by pressing the RESET button both PEAK FORCE and DURATION 
windows are set at zero and the until is reinitialized. 

 

RESET will not change the Threshold setting. 

 
ON/OFF 
The unit should always be turned off by sliding the power 
switch when not in use.
