3.5.6 Cal. Adjustment
By performing a calibration adjustment, you can adjust a material characteristic
calibrated for a particular material to a different material or diameter without creating
a new material characteristic.
Requirements
:
- Prepare the measuring setup as shown in Fig. 3.5.6a.
- Make sure that the thumbpiece is in the adjustment position (chapter 3.5.3).
- Set the material thickness as described in chapter 3.5.1.
- Select the desired material (chapter 3.4.1).
- Move the tension meter into the desired measuring position and carry out a zero
adjustment, if required.
Adjusting
:
- Select the „Cal. Adjustment“ menu item from the main menu (Fig. 3.5.6b)
- Insert the material to be measured (chapter 3.5.3) and push the thumbpiece into the
measuring position.
- Press the or key to perform the calibration adjustment until the value on the
display corresponds to the weight suspended to the material.
The adjustment can be performed in 1 % steps within the range from + 10 % to - 10 %.
- Press the
button to save the determined value.
Please note that this is a general value. So determine it separately for each mate-
rial characteristic and note it down for later reference. It is not possible to save it
per material characteristic.
To disable calibration adjustment, reset the value to 0 % in the „Cal. Adjustment“
menu.
3.5.7 Peak value
During a measurement cycle, the tension meter automatically calculates the Peak Mi-
nimum and Peak Maximum values. If these values should not be displayed in the bar
graph or in the statistics, disable their display in the main menu. Regardless, the Peak
values will be used and shown always in the software
