OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS                                               TREND SERIES 

SETTING HIGH - LOW TOLERANCE LIMITS 

 
Every TREND system features tolerance alarms which are used to establish a “quality window” that the 
process will operate within.  These alarms are set as a percentage of the forming force and automatically 
adjusted each time a sample is taken or a new job is started. 
 
The ability to establish alarms in percent eliminates the need to re-adjust settings for each job change.  For 
example, with high and low tolerance settings of 10%, a 100 ton job has alarms automatically set at 110 tons 
high and 90 tons low.  A 40 ton job has alarms automatically set at 44 tons high and 36 tons low. 
 

 

 
There are two switches for each channel of monitoring; one to establish the LOW alarm setting and one for 
the HIGH alarm setting.  Each switch is selectable from 5% to 45%, in increments of 5%.  There is also a 
position to turn the alarms off. 
 
A tolerance setting of plus 5% on an individual channel will cause an alarm when the load level increases 
5% above the sampled load. 
 
A tolerance setting of minus 45% on a particular channel will cause an alarm when the load decreases 45% 
from the sampled load. 
 
 
 

ESTABLISHING OPTIMUM TOLERANCE SETTINGS 

 
A good baseline starting point is 25%, high and low.  With the instrument in Monitor Parts mode, watch the 
trend lights during a production run.  Begin lowering tolerance percents until the center green (GOOD) LED 
starts flashing one LED up and down from center.
