Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 7.4.2 Configuration The configuration menu is represented in Figure 5. If you want to leave this menu, press the ESC button. Figure 5: Configuration menu 7.4.2.1 Select language Under the menu item „Language“ you have the possibility to switch between the lan- guages German and English.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 7.4.2.2 Select sensor type For the WeightWatcher mobile system three different sensor types for different rope diameters are available: - LSM1 diameter 6mm – 16mm - LSM2 diameter 4mm – 10mm - LSM-XL diameter 16mm – 24mm In order to enable the load meter to work correctly with the different sensors, the user must select the sensor used.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 Figure 8: Suspension ratio setting 7.4.2.4 Set date / time Under this menu item you can set the internal real time clock of the mobile rope load meter MSM12. The current time and the date are stored together with each storage of the measured values, so that later you can recognize when these measurements have been carried out.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 7.4.2.5 Delete storage Figure 10: Delete storage Press YES in order to delete the total measurement data storage. When pressing the NO button you leave this menu item without deleting the storage. Attention: After deleting the measurement data storage all data stored here (rope loads and rope load wizard records) is irretrievably lost.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 7.4.2.7 Set display units The rope loads and total weights can be displayed in two different units. The unit kilogram or tons respectively is preset. Alternatively you may change to the output in the English weight unit pound and here you can select between short tons and long tons.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 In figure 13 you see the connected sensors – in this case 6 sensors. The evaluation unit has determined rope 2 as the reference rope. (during the total adjustment proce- dure channel 2 will never display a deviation; If you adjust rope 2 this has on the dis- play only effects on the other measuring channels).
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 8 Carrying-out of measurements 8.1 Installation position of the sensors in the rope 8.1.1 General conditions The sensors must be mounted with a minimum distance of 200 mm to the cable joint as a not vertically running rope can distort the precision of the measured results.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 8.2 Rope adjustment On principle, take care that the sensors are mounted in that section of the rope in which the rope exhibits a maximum length without intermediate deflections or traction sheaves, as the ropes during stoppage cannot or only slightly balance between the rope sections.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 8.3 Weight measurement Due to heavy friction of the car or the counterweight in the rail guides the measuring result can be negatively influenced. In such a case it is better to de- termine the weight during a constant travel. This effect is found particularly frequently in the case of rucksack guides.
Mobile Rope Measurement MSM 12 9.2 Bluetooth pairing In order to use the wireless connection between the MSM12 and the computer the MSM12 must be paired with the computer. Here the pairing procedure under Win- dows XP with Service Pack 2 is described. For other operating systems the adjust- ments should be made correspondingly.
