- 8 -
An easy-to-remember small symbol indicates the direction of the force exerted on the sensor (
).
VAL 1: indicates the value displayed on line 1. You can effectively modify the information
displayed on this line. We will see on Chapter 4 part C how to change the displayed value.
NOTE: on lines 1 and 2 you can display the following values:
VLI: current value
MXI: maximum value
MNI: minimum value
CP: calculation (If calculation is used)

Reset function
Press on “ZERO” button to reset the force gauge.
This button allows for tare. The gauge will take into consideration the weight of accessories
(hook or plate) fixed on the sensor’s rod.
Pressing this button resets all memories and peak values.
NOTE:
When turned ON the CENTORMETER completes several self-tests to check the sensor’s
health. It is possible to leave tools fixed on the force gauge, but the total weight
must not
exceed 20%
of the sensor’s maximum capacity.

Measure unit
To change the unit of measure, just press “UNIT” button.
When the force gauge has an external sensor attached, it detects the type of sensor connected
and displays the corresponding units.
8.
Peak values
The CENTORMETER automatically calculates peak values (maximum and minimum) and
systematically displays them on line 2. Pressing “MAX” button makes max. Value, min. value and
current value successively display (as well as a calculation if it has been set).
To reset those values press the “ZERO” button.
9.
Backlight
You can turn on the backlight by pressing “O” button.
When using the force gauge on battery, the backlight automatically turns off after 3 minutes of
operation. The total battery life the CENTORMETER will be reduced when the backlight is turned
on.
When the gauge is used with the charger, the backlight does not switch off.
