  • Page 49 Operation Any changes in settings using the web-based GUI are not made until the "Save to Device" button is pushed and the current software configuration is transferred to the hard- ware unit. In the Calibration menu, the 6x6 hexapod calibration matrix for maximum sensor accuracy and crosstalk com- pensation can be assigned to the connected RoaDyn WFT.
  • Page 50: Preparing A Measuring Drive

    KiRoad Wireless HDR, Type 9813C... and Type 9822A... Preparing a measuring drive Before any measurement is started, the WFT system must have been switched on for at least half an hour and the WFT must have cycled through at least two full revo- lutions to synchronize the angular measurement and to correct angle counting.
  • Page 51 Operation Live data from the connected RoaDyn WFT can be monitored on the Measurement Display. The refresh rate is limited by the web-browser display capability and sufficient for quasi-static measuring data check. This is strongly recommended for all Main Channels of each connected WFT before starting the real measurement and data capturing.
