Page 7: Features Of This Model
Also, this model can be used for the measurement (the approximation with a similar figure of approximate 1/8.3) approximating to the measurement method of the durometer hardness type A/E (AO) [JIS K 6253/ISO7619], E2/F0 [TECLOCK standard] and OO [ASTM/D2240]. Additionally, this can measure with any setting fluctuating load value. - Page 8 Settable to a different value from the values in the HD S1 mode and HDS2 mode. By connecting a dedicated potable printer to the main unit directly, the measured data can be printed out. As for the software By installing the accessory software (GS-680 PC Application) in your PC, all of the operations are controllable from the PC side.
