Model DFG-RS3 Digital Force/Torque Indicator

6 SET POINT INDICATORS

6.1 General Information
Set points are useful for tolerance checking (pass/fail). Two limits, high and low, are specified and stored
in the non-volatile memory of the instrument and the primary reading is compared to these limits.
6.2 Configuration
To configure set points, select Set Points from the menu. The screen appears as follows:
SET POINTS
Upper Disabled
* Upper Enabled
5.00 lbFin
Lower Disabled
* Lower Enabled
3.50 lbFin
Either one, two, or none of the set points may be enabled. To toggle between the tension and
compression (or clockwise and counter-clockwise) directions, press the DIRECTION key.
If two set points have been enabled, they are displayed in the upper left corner of the display. If only one
set point has been enabled, the word "OFF" appears in place of the value. If no set points have been
enabled, the upper left corner of the display will be blank.
When set points are enabled, the following indicators are shown to the left of the primary reading:
Note: Set point indicators reference the displayed reading, not necessarily the current live load.

7 OPERATING MODES

Caution!
In any operating mode, if the capacity of the instrument has been exceeded by more than 110%,
the display will show "OVER" to indicate an overload. A continuous audible tone will be sounded
(if beeps are enabled) until the MENU key has been pressed or the load has been reduced to a
safe level.
Three operating modes are possible with the DFG-RS3 indicator. To cycle between the modes, press
MODE while in the home screen.
7.1 Real time (RT)
The primary reading corresponds to the live measured reading.
– the displayed value is greater than the upper
load limit (NO GO HIGH)
– the displayed value is between the limits (GO)
– the displayed value is less than the lower load
limit (NO GO LOW)
