15. The test is performed and the cotton sample ejected from the
micronaire chamber. The cotton sample can be re-used up to three
times.
16.
The number of times a cotton sample is tested is determined by the
selections made in Configuration
;
the test results displayed on the
screen are an average of the observations.
As the tests are completed for the cotton sample, the results are
displayed on the screen and transmitted to the host
(if testing online)
.
5.2 Retesting
Once data is collected and the summary of data is displayed, a bale
with discrepant data (or data that appears to be incorrect) can be
retested by re-entering the Bale ID and repeating the testing cycle. Initial
information from a retested bale will be overwritten when transmitted to
the host, or when it becomes part of the testing report.
Discrepant data includes any combination of side limit or lot limit results.
Side limits are indicated by a
RED background. Lot Limits are indicated
by a BLUE background.
Note:
Discrepant means the bale has had one (1) Lot Limit or Side
Limit result.
If the Length/Strength, Color, or Trash test results indicate that the
measurements from the two sides of the bale are not within the tolerance
limits, an error message is displayed beside the measured value for the
field out of tolerance. A window will launch and ask if you want to
Accept or Retest .
After retesting, the system automatically accepts all additional testing.
If, after the cotton sample is retested, the values are still outside the
tolerance limits, this is an indication that the cotton sample came from a
"between-sides" bale.
