Interactions with External Trigger Mode
Even if set points have been enabled, they are inactive when the gauge is in External Trigger
mode.
7.3 Using Set Points to Control Mark-10 Motorized Test Stands
When using set points to stop/cycle crosshead motion on a Mark-10 motorized test stand, both set points
must be enabled, and each set point must be set to opposite measurement directions. For example, if a
test requires the test stand to stop at 20 lb of compression force, set the upper set point to 20 lb
compression, and the lower set point to a tension value such as 10 lb, or any other value in the tension
compression that will not be triggered during the course of the test.
8 DATA MEMORY AND STATISTICS
Series 5 gauges have storage capacity of 1,000 data points. Readings may be stored, viewed, and output
to an external device. Individual, or all, data points may be deleted. Statistics are calculated for the data

To enable memory storage, select DATA Key from the menu, then scroll to Memory Storage and press
ENTER. Then exit the menu. In the home screen, the data record number 0000 will appear below the
