Setting working parameters
NOTE:
what described in this procedure allows to modify or set measurement system calibration,
Pitagora instrument plus TSS transducer, by defining a new set of LO and HI reference values for
the system (these references allow the conversion of the measured data in engineering units).
By executing this procedure and storing in the instrument a new set of reference values, these will
substitute the existing ones that will be lost in an irreparable way.
Note that the DP parameter defines the decimal point position, with reference to the rightmost digit
of the display. If DP=0 decimal point is not shown. Decimal point has an “aesthetic” function,
since the calibration of the measurement system is performed (LO and Hi parameters) already
considering values expressed in the engineering unit and in the required resolution of interest for
the application.
The ADSPD parameter is set by Factory to 9, in order to obtain a displayed measure with the
highest stability (strong filtering) and resolution. If it is needed to measure faster change in
tensioning, the measure has to be read through the serial connection to the Pitagora instrument,
setting the desired ADSPD value, as required by the application.
