position' and the position at which a 'touch-on' is detected (see [1], [3], [3],
[7]). This calculation is either 'on' or 'off', i.e. it needs no parameters.
The absolute zero position can be set from the 'live screen' by:
•
using the [Jog Dn] key to drive the crosshead down until the fixturing is close
to the anvil plate of the MultiTest-x then,
•
pressing the [0/Touch] key to display:
•
pressing [Start/ENT] and entering a touch-on speed (see above),
•
pressing [Start/ENT] and entering a touch-on load (see above),
•
at the
will start immediately.
•
The absolute zero position will be reset to the position at which the touch-on
load is detected.
•
The crosshead will subsequently be driven to the 'home position' (see [1], [3],
[3], [5]).
Note that, no matter what calculation command is currently being displayed, if the
[Start/ENT] key is pressed, the screen displayed will be that associated with the first
active command. For example if a load set-point has just been activated to add a third
calculation to two calculations already active (e.g. a peak load and an average over
time calculation), although the screen associated with activating the third calculation is
on the display, pressing the [Start/ENT] key will display the screen associated with
the specifying the parameters of the first active calculation (i.e. the peak load
calculation). It is only after the parameters of the first and second calculations have
been confirmed or changed that the parameters of the third calculation can be
specified.
