TRANS CAL Model 7280 1. General 1.1 Application The portable digital indicator model 7280 is a universal checking device for instrumentation examination mechanical components like press, equipment of torque and so on. The employment takes place in the ranges quality assurance, start-up and process monitoring. By high measuring rates very fast reactions to the measuring signals are possible.
TRANS CAL Model 7280 2. Preparation for use 2.1 Unpacking the device The device weights approx. 0.5 kg and due to this it is packed shockproof. Unpack it accurately and check the completeness of the delivery. This normally includes: 1 TRANS CAL model 7280 1 copy of this manual Verify accurately, that there is no damage on the device.
TRANS CAL Model 7280 2.3 Mains operation Mains operation: A plug-in power supply with controlled 6 V DC must be employed with min 1.5 A. For discharged batteries the charging current will be approx. 290 mA. In this way, the accumulators are also loaded simultaneously, also in the case of switched-off 7280.

TRANS CAL Model 7280 4.6 Operating and function principle of the date logger in 7280 measuring amplifier The data logger can, if the 7280 measuring amplifier is not in the measuring mode, be read by the menu option 2.7 LOGG - SENDING or by the command „A“ via the interface. Outside of the measuring mode the data logger is deleted only by the menu option 2.7 LOGG - DELETION.
TRANS CAL Model 7280 4.7 Adjustments in the LOGG mode LOGG OUT Here the data logger is switched off. the logg mode in the measur- ing mode is switched to “LOGG OUT” as soon as the entire data logger has been edited. HAND In this mode a measured value is written into the data logger when the enter key was pressed at the 7280.
USB interface. The PC manages the USB interface as a virtual COM port. For the use of the USB interface, must have a windows operating system (2k, XP, Vista, 7) and the burster präzsionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg USB driver must be installed (see chapter 3 - further documentation). After the driver installation, the virtual COM port can be used as described below.
