How to do a test?
In the current application there are different ways to use the DADS application and to do
Absorptometer measurements, depending on the preferences of the operator or the
philosophy of the test laboratory.
The following table summarizes different procedures the operator can use to run a
measurement.
Normal Absorption Test Procedures
All tests are started by pressing the "Enter" key on the DADS Terminal.
1.
Default
test
Default test can be done in the following situation:
Right after a new installation. No qualities and no test list
have been defined yet.
The operator chooses one of the "Test list" groups in the
group selection list of parameter section of the main frame,
but the test list is empty
The advantage of this procedure is the simplicity. The operator
doesn't need to work with the quality editor and test list editor.
The operator can run "default" measurements. The default
measurement parameters can be modified by the operator by using
the keys of the DADS terminal. Refer to Default test procedure for
more information on the procedure.
2.
Test from
quality list
By choosing one of the "Quality list" groups in the group selection list,
the operator can set the test configuration to one of the qualities of
the list. Refer to Quality list measurement procedure for more
information on the procedure.
The advantage of this procedure is to always have a fixed list of
qualities available. The operator is not forced to use the test list
editor to run measurements.
See also the
help for more information on how to edit
qualities.
3.
Test from
test list
By choosing one of the "Test list" groups in the group selection list,
the operator can set the test configuration to one of the test list files
contained in the list. Refer to Test list measurement procedure for
more information on the procedure.
By using this procedure the laboratory supervisor will be able to
prepare in advance a list of tests. These could contain for instance
special test conditions, and can be executed later by an operator.
Refer to the
help for more information about test list
files.
Of course all procedures can be mixed together. In the following sections some more
information about the absorption measurements will be given.
