Model 5i Digital Force / Torque Indicator

User’s Guide


13

When set points are enabled, the following indicators are shown to the left of the primary reading:

– the displayed value is greater than the upper

load limit (NO GO HIGH)

– the displayed value is between the limits (GO)

– the displayed value is less than the lower load

limit (NO GO LOW)



Set point indicators and outputs reference the displayed reading, not necessarily the current live load.


Interactions with External Trigger Mode
Even if set points have been enabled, they are inactive when the indicator is in External Trigger
mode.

7.3 Using Set Points to Control Mark-10 Motorized Test Stands
When using set points to stop/cycle 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 lbFin of clockwise torque, program the upper set point to 20 lbFin clockwise, and the
lower set point to a counter-clockwise value such as 10 lbFin, or any other value in the counter-clockwise
direction that will not be triggered during the course of the test.

8 DATA MEMORY AND STATISTICS

The 5i has a 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
presently in memory.

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
primary reading. Press DATA at any time to save the displayed reading. The record number will
increment each time DATA is pressed. If DATA is pressed when memory is full the message “MEMORY
FULL” will be flashed at the bottom of the display and a double audio tone will be sounded.

To view, edit, and output stored readings and statistics, select Memory from the menu. The screen
appears as follows:


8.1 View Data
All the saved data points may be viewed. The record number is displayed, along with the corresponding
value and presently set unit of measurement. Any readings may be deleted individually. To do so, scroll
to the desired reading and press DELETE. The letter “D” will appear to the left of the record number,
indicating that the indicator is in Delete mode, as follows:
