The Run Program function starts one of the available programs defined in the memory. If
there is no program available, the following error message is displayed:
No valid program
Enter program first!
In this case, the user has to define a program first (see Section VI.6.2: Utilities → Edit
Program). Use the
OK
key to return to the main menu.
If programs are available, a list appears to select from. Select the program to be started
(see Section VI.3: Selecting from Lists).
Select PROG to run
1) Prog xyz
2) Test
3) Prog oil 2000
If the
OK
key is used to select the program (in this example, the program named “Test”), this
operation is followed by the option to enter an ID (identification text of the measurement,
a maximum 15 characters - see Section VI.4: Input of Numerical Values and Alphanumeric
Texts
).

< >menu
Start a measurement by pressing the ST key or return back to the main menu with the
key.
In the above example, the measurement points will be saved to the memory and printed to
the printer connected to the rheometer. Options for output devices include a printer, the
RS232 serial interface or no output device. In Section VI.7.1: Configuration → Output
Mode, this is described in detail.
If the memory is full, you should consider cancelling the Run Program function, printing the
data from the memory or sending it to a PC (see Section VI.6.5: Utilities → Print Memory) and
then clearing the data from the memory (see Section VI.6.6: Utilities → Clear Memory).
