INTERFACE MODEL 9840 VER 6.0.2
Entering Numerical Data
At times you will need to enter numerical data into the Model 9840. The method is
consistent in all cases. A number is presented on the left side of the display with an
underline cursor.
• Left ( “<“ ) moves the cursor left one position. If you are on the leftmost digit a new
zero will be added. Thus 1
0.000 will become 010.00 where the cursor has moved
from the tens place to the hundreds place.
• Right ( “>“ ) moves the cursor right one position. If you are at the far right a new
decimal will be added if there is room. Thus 12.34
will become 12.340 where the
cursor has moved from the tenths to the hundredths place.
• Plus ( “+” ) increments the digit above the cursor. Thus 12
.34 becomes 13.34. Note
that 9 will “wrap around” to 0.
• Minus ( “-” ) decrements the digit above the cursor. Thus 12
.34 becomes 11.34.
Note that 0 will “wrap around” to 9.
• Plus and Minus (both “+” and “-” at the same time). This will change the sign of the
number. Thus 12
.34 becomes -12.34. Note that cursor position does not matter when
you change the sign.
• Enter accepts the currently displayed number.
• Esc escapes from numerical entry and discards any changes that have been made.
Entering Alphanumeric Data
When entering cell serial numbers, the option of using numbers and/or letters from A to Z
is available. This works in the same way as entering numerical data with the exception
that no decimal point exists in the display.
>User Data Entry
This menu is used to enter numerical constants used by the math options. These
constants are listed in a submenu that works exactly like the main setup mode menu.
Typical items in this submenu are:
>>Base Area Ch A/B
This is the area in square inches that is used to calculate load in pounds per square
inch (PSI) or Mega Pascals (MPa).
>>Base Length
This is the length in inches that is used to calculate position in percent.
>Analog Output
This menu is used to set up the standard analog output. Instead of a submenu there is a
series of selections. Pressing escape at any time will leave the analog output unchanged
and return you to the setup mode main menu. Note that when you change a cell type
(from load to torque or back again) these settings must be reset for the new cell. If the
unit is a 2-channel unit and the Analog Output B option has been enabled, the first option
asks the user for the Analog Output channel. Select A or B. Then begin selecting the
following settings.
