If the beeper sound is on and a QC limit is exceeded the DVPlus will provide an audible noise. To turn off the noise
during the test, press on the alarm bell. To turn it back on repress.
AMETEK Brookfield recommends you record at least both %torque and viscosity. Relevant test parameters might
include viscometer model, spindle, speed, temperature, container size, and test duration (Time). See the sample
Viscosity Test Report at the end of the Appendices.
•
Remove the spindle and guard leg before cleaning. Remember to secure the viscometer shaft and lift up
slightly while removing the spindle. Clean the spindles and guard leg after each use.

Interpretation of results and the instrument's use with non-Newtonian and thixotropic materials is
discussed in our publication
Measurements.
3.5 Communication with Optional DVPlus Connect
The DVPlus Viscometer can be used in conjunction with the AMETEK Brookfield software program DVPlus Connect
App. DVPlus Connect App will collect the data output from the DVPlus and allow for data storage and data printing.
The DVPlus Viscometer communicates to the PC through either a Bluetooth connection or a USB-B port. The
communication cable will be supplied with the DVPlus Connect App software. Communication can be established
once both the DVPlus Connect App software and the DVPLUS Viscometer are running. Use the Search or Connect
button on the DVPlus Connect App dashboard. Successful communication will be indicated by a message on the
App screen.
DVPlus Connect app provides means to connect to a DVPlus instrument via Bluetooth® or USB (Windows only)
connection. The app enables users to collect, view, and save test data. DVPlus Connect has no control over the
DVPlus instrument. Test setup needs to be done on the instrument side.
Live Data Page
The Live Data page reflects the instrument's "Running Viscosity Test" screen. The
Bottom of the page displays status such as instrument connection and running test.
Saved Data Page
The Saved Data page lists test data files saved from your device. The User can select
a file from the list and view it.
