Operator's guide

UNLOCK

This command unlocks the sensor mass and prepares the instrument to

begin operating.

UNLOCK

is activated when the mass is already unlocked, the

processor will lock it and aiempt to unlock again. This is useful if you

suspect that the locking procedure has failed.

Again, you can use the

BUSY

LED to monitor the progress of unlocking.

1. The instrument checks to see whether the sensor mass is locked.

2. The instrument checks the sensor base.

3. The mass is unlocked.

4. The sensor base is unlocked. This process takes longer.

Afer u nlocking, t he i nstrument a utomatically p erforms a r ound o f

centring (see below).

CENTRE

This command re-centres the mass. If the mass is clamped, or if the
sensor mass position does not exceed ± 1.2 V, the

CENTRE

command

does nothing. Otherwise, it aiempts to zero the output of the sensor by

exerting small extra forces on the boom. A motor-driven adjuster presses

a small spring lever against the boom until the mass position sensor

indicates an ofset close to zero.
