Page 5: Introduction
1.1. General information on the device function The Chronoskop CHR-9 timegrapher is an electronic measuring and testing device for the production, repair and service of mechanical watches. The Timegrapher allows as well an acoustic as a light barrier measurement with an external light barrier. Values such as Rate, Beat Number, Beat Error and the average duration of a half-wave can be determined. - Page 6 (about 9cm x 9cm x 4cm) that gives the device manageability, it is easy to transport and can be used in battery mode in many places. For further actual information, please refer to the user manual, which you can download from our website. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com...

In battery mode, the Timegrapher is operated with a 9 V block. In order to increase the battery life, the display illumination can be switched off in the settings. It may happen that when the battery power drops, the display contrast must be readjusted when switching to battery operation. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com... -
Page 9: Theoretic Basics
If the balance oscillates asymmetrically around the zero position, the period duration of consecutive beats is unequal. The beat error is calculated from the difference between the half-wave durations and given in miliseconds. – Beat error is calculated as follows: Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com... -

λ Based on the known lift angle (mostly 50° - 52°) and the measured lifting time of the balance (time interval between the first (1) and the third (3) impulse), the amplitude determined. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com... -

Please note: Piezo discs are very sensitive. When measuring with the built-in microphone you should even avoid the use of the display during the measurement, as this can generate noise too. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com... - Page 12 "Time axis" display mode. Noisy noise (such as fan noise in the PC) should be avoided. This noise is not visible in the time scale display, but reduces the sensitivity of the amplifier electronics significantly. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com...

Accordingly, a beat that arrives too late is set lower. The line of dots on the display will therefore go up or down . The diagram shows not only the rate deviation but also other temporal irregularities in the clockwork, e.g. Waste error (Repère), defective escapement wheel teeth etc. Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com... - Page 18 Clock is to fast Light beat error Larger beat error Beat error with delay Periodic error Noise Swing-into of a clock Wrong beat number selected Selected beat number to small Selected beat number to big (2x) Chronoskop CHR-9 Timegrapher User manual www.CHRONOSKOP.com...
