Step 2:
Next you will be prompted
ENTER WEIGHT 1.
Using
the
↑
or
↓
arrows select a minimum tension value. (
Do not use
zero
.) Press
ENTER
.
Select increasing weight values for
WEIGHT 2 THRU 4
(No. 4
being the maximum weight value). At each weight number se-
lect your weight value using the
↑
and
↓
arrows.
ENTER
each
selection.
Next you will calibrate the instrument to the weight values you
just selected. To simulate tension loads for calibration, take a
sample length of your material and suspend it from above.
(See Page 12, Fig. 1) Next hang weights from your material in
the weight values you previously selected in “enter weights 1
through 4”.
Your instrument will now prompt you
PLACE WEIGHT 0.
With
zero tension applied to the instrument press
ENTER.
Next you will be prompted
PLACE WEIGHT 1.
Suspend the
exact weight value from your material that you previously se-
lected. Engage instrument to the tensioned material and then
press
ENTER.
Next suspend weight value 2 from your material, engage the
instrument to your tensioned material and press
ENTER.
Repeat procedure for steps 3 and 4. Once you have entered
the value for
WEIGHT 4
you have finished the calibration and
will be returned to the Main Display. The Main Display will now
indicate the description of the calibration you just entered. This
signifies you have now selected the calibration you just per-
formed.
To change calibration use the
↑
or
↓
arrows until you reach
SELECT MATERIAL.
Follow procedures outlined in Section
3.6.
