Selecting Operating Units
The units shown in Table 4-7 provide the scaling for the
Display Panel and recorder options, and are the units
that appear on a printout of test results.
Note
The units in use depend upon the selection of English,
metric or S.I. type, as described in the previous section.
The units shown for load and extension appear only if
the load cell and load frame, respectively, are self-identi-
fied.
Operating Units for Non-Self Identified Load Cells and
Load Frames
If the load cell (or load frame) in use is not self-identi-
fied, then the units for load (or extension and speed)
print as:
If the load cell in use is not self-identified, the scaling of
the load parameter for the LOAD display, recorder and
printer options depend upon the full scale value of the
cell; you enter the full scale value during the calibration
procedure. Also, if Area Compensation is not equal to
1.000, load is scaled by 1/Area and LD/A would be
printed.
4-34
When Area Compensation is not equal to
1.000, the load signal to the LOAD display and
recorder are scaled by 1/AREA (normalized).
A printout will show load units/Area, e.g., LB/A.
"LD" for Load
"EX" for Extension
"SP" for Speed
