4. MEASURING PROCEDURE 4-1 Pay attention for the measurement 1) Compression measurement, the display will show the " - " mark automatically. Tension Compression 2) During the measurement, the SENSING HEAD along the adapter has to be on a line with measuring object. ( ref.
3) Rotate the SENSING HEAD is prohibited. Some certain angles between SENSING HEAD & measuring object are not allowed. 4-2 Normal Measurement Power on/off Power on : Press " Power Button " ( 3-3, Fig. 1) once. Power off : During power on, press "...
5) Start measurement by giving force (push or pull), then the LCD will display the Average reading value. Note : * During the measurement, if intend to change the display direction, just push the " Reverse Button " ( 3-7, Fig. 1 ) once. * There are two kind sampling time of display, FAST and SLOW.
4-4 LCD Back Light On/Off During the measurement, press the " BACKLIGHT Button " ( 3-3, Fig. 1 ) once the LCD Back Light will be ON. During the LCD Back Light ON, press the " BACKLIGHT Button " once again, the LCD Back Light will be OFF again. 4-5 Alarm beeper If the measuring value over the 100.00 Kg, the internal buzzer will sound for warning.
d. Decimal format setting The numerical data structure of SD card is default used the " . " as the decimal, for example "20.6" "1000.53" . But in certain countries ( Europe ...) is used the " , " as the decimal point, for example "...
b. Pause the datalogger During execute the Datalogger function , if press the " Logger Button " ( 3-9, Fig. 1 ) once will pause the Datalogger function ( stop to save the measuring data into the memory circuit temporally ). In the same time the indicator of "...
Remark : During execute the Manual Datalogger, press the " ▲ Button " ( 3-4, Fig, 1 ) or " Button " ( 3-7, Fig. 1 ) to ▼ set the measuring Location no. ( 1 to 99, for example room 1 to room 99 ) to identify the measurement location , the lower Display will show P x ( x = 1 to 99 ).
* When the peak value is got, the LCD indicator " DATA RECORD " will be disappeared . The indicator will show " PEAK " indicator only, in the same time the peak value will freeze on the Display * Following the bottom LCD will show the data record no.

2) If the first time to execute the Datalogger, under the route FGC01\, will generate a new file name FGC01001.XLS. After exist the Datalogger, then execute again, the data will save to the FGC01001.XLS until Data column reach to 30,000 columns, then will generate a new file, for example FGC01002.XLS 3) Under the folder FGC01\, if the total files more than 99 files, will generate anew route, such as...
6. Saving data from the SD card to the computer ( EXCEL software ) 1) After execute the Data Logger function, take away the SD card out from the " SD card socket " ( 3-20, Fig. 1 ). 2) Plug in the SD card into the Computer's SD card slot ( if your computer build in this installation ) or insert the SD card into the "...

7-8 Decimal point of SD card setting The numerical data structure of SD card is default used the " . " as the decimal, for example "20.6" "1000.53" . But in certain countries ( Europe ...) is used the " , " as the decimal point, for example "...
8. POWER SUPPLY from DC ADAPTER The meter also can supply the power supply from the DC 9V Power Adapter ( optional ). Insert the plug of Power Adapter into " DC 9V Power Adapter Input Socket " ( 3-12, Fig. 1 ). The meter will permanent power ON when use the DC ADAPTER power supply ( The power Button function is disable ).
11. RS232 PC SERIAL INTERFACE The instrument has RS232 PC serial interface via a 3.5 mm terminal ( 3-10, Fig. 1 ). The data output is a 16 digit stream which can be utilized for user's specific application. A RS232 lead with the following connection will be required to link the instrument with the PC serial port.
Polarity 0 = Positive 1 = Negative Decimal Point(DP), position from right to the left 0 = No DP, 1= 1 DP, 2 = 2 DP, 3 = 3 DP D8 to D1 Display reading, D1 = LSD, D8 = MSD For example : If the display reading is 1234, then D8 to D1 is : 1234 End Word...
