4.4 Tracking
The FGV-XY uses a load cell and strain gauge as its force sensor. The sensor is affected by environmental changes such as temperature and
humidity. The Tracking function, which is active by default, helps to negate the effects of these changes. Tracking can cause errors when
measuring very small forces. It is recommended that you turn off the Tracking function when measuring these smaller forces. With the gauge's
power off, hold PEAK and UNIT. Press POWER, and keep holding PEAK and UNIT until "oFF" is displayed. Repeat the process to turn Track-
ing back on. Instead of "oFF", "SEt" will be displayed.
