Set-Up
Connect all cables and power cords before applying
power to the test stand and force gauge. Apply power
to the force gauge before applying power to the test
stand; this is necessary so that the test stand will
recognize which Shimpo force gauge is being used.
To identify whether the stand is in metric or English units,
turn the power on (power SW is located in the back of
the unit); metric units will display one decimal place (0.0),
while English units display two decimal places (0.00).
To switch from English to metric units, push “SPEED” and
“RST/!” switches while turning the power on. To return
to English units, turn the test stand off, then push
“SPEED” and “TIME/$” switches while turning the power
back on.
