Gauge (BFG) instrument. With correct use and regular re-calibration it will give many years of accurate and reliable service. The Mecmesin BFG is a member of a series of highly versatile display units. By using the latest integrated circuit technology it has been... -
Page 4: Powering The Gauge
Immerse in water Solder anything to the battery terminals Reverse individual cell polarity Use alternative chargers other than those supplied by Mecmesin Use replacement parts other than those supplied by Mecmesin Never dispose of batteries with ‘normal’ refuse. Contact your local Environmental Authority to determine the location of your appropriate disposal facility. -
Page 5: Using The Gauge
Never fit any accessory without first sitting an extension rod. Mounting to a test stand On the rear of the gauge there are two M5 threaded holes, which can be used for mounting the gauge to a Mecmesin test stand. Each Mecmesin test stand is supplied with a dedicated ‘dovetailed mounting bracket’... - Page 6 Should the instrument have sustained a catastrophic overload, the symbol ‘OL’ will be permanently displayed and the instrument must be returned to Mecmesin or an approved Mecmesin distributor for repair. Forces greater than 120% of full-scale will produce an OL symbol which will remain on the display all the time the overload is present.
- Page 7 Zeroing the Gauge During the operation of the gauge it is often necessary to zero the display – e.g. when you wish to tare out the weight of a grip, so it does not become part of the measured reading. Press and release the ZERO key. The display will blink momentarily as the zero operation is carried out.
- Page 8 Max Compression Press the MAX key again and the display will show the maximum compressive force identified by the symbol. Fig. 3b Symbol for compression "Normal" mode Press the MAX key again and the display will show the current load applied to the loadcell in either direction, maintaining a “running”...
- Page 9 Data Output The BFG has RS232, Mitutoyo and analogue output signals. It is possible to transmit the displayed reading to peripheral devices (e.g. PC, printer) by pressing and releasing the TXD key. Displayed readings can also be requested individually from a BFG uses 9600 Baud 8 data PC via the RS232 interface by sending a "?"...

Page 10: Optional Settings
Optional Settings through Dual Function keys Auto-off To conserve battery power, it is possible to activate an Auto- off function so that the gauge powers down after 5 minutes since the last key press or remote request or load change greater than 2% of full scale. - Page 11 An overload is registered when the load exceeds120% of the rated capacity. Removing recorded overloads can only be undertaken by Mecmesin or an approved Mecmesin distributor. Page 9...
