Operation (continued)
Deleting Data (Single and Continuous Memory Mode)
While recalling data (see above) it is possible to delete one data reading at a time or delete the entire memory.
To cancel one reading at a time:
Press the RECALL button to scroll through the data in memory until the undesired reading is appears on the display.
Push the > button to delete that data reading. All higher memory positions will decrement one to fill the deleted
position. If the reading being deleted is the last one in memory, then the memory position will decrement one as there
is no higher memory position to take its place.
To delete the entire memory:
After recalling the memory using the RECALL button, press the RESET button while holding down the ON button; “CLr”
will briefly appear on the main display. This indicates that all data readings have been deleted and will automatically exit
from memory recall.
Standard Memory Mode
After selecting the “nonE” mode it is possible to store the maximum “+”, maximum “-”, minimum “+”, minimum “-”,
and last reading during a sampling period. After pressing the MEMO SET button, a flashing “M” will appear on the small
display; push the MEMO SET button again to end the sampling period.
Each time the RECALL button is pressed the DFS will scroll through the readings mentioned above. It is not necessary to
clear the memory before performing the next test as they will be cancelled when the MEMO SET button is pressed.
Recalling Statistics
While recalling data from memory in either the Single or Continuous Mode it is possible to also recall statistics. To recall
statistics:
1. Press the RECALL button. The last data reading entered and memory position will be flashing opposite each other
on the main display.
2. Press the PEAK button. The maximum reading will appear on the main display.
3. Each subsequent push of the Peak button will scroll to minimum, peak “+”, peak “-”, average, standard deviation
and return to maximum.
4. Press the RESET button to exit.
NOTE: Peak “+” and peak “-” will not be displayed if the data was stored in the Single Memory Mode.
Setting of Filter
Subtle vibrations are common in many testing environments. The DFS incorporates a filtering feature that “smoothes”
the force curve by eliminating extraneous measurements caused by these outside influences. Depending on how
severely these impact the sampling, a large or small filter is available. Set a filter as follows:
1. Press the PEAK button while holding down the ON button. The small display will show “dSP”.
2. Press the PEAK button eight times. The small display will indicate “Adf” and the main display will reflect the
current setting.
3. Each time the > button is pressed, the main display will scroll through “0” (no filter), “1” (small filter) and “2”
(large filter).
4. Press the MEMO SET button to store the selection and exit.
NOTE: To determine which filter (if necessary) is needed, first attempt to test without a filter, then proceed to filter 1 and
possibly to filter 2.
