TIP: The Global Alarm sound can be turned off in the Sounds menu
of User Settings.
The Global Alarm is deactivated by choosing None in the drop down list of
available measurement parameters. You must press OK to confirm your
Global Alarm choice.
Spindle List:
The selection of Spindle in Configure Viscosity Test can be done by using
either a number pad or a scroll list. (This choice is selected through the
navigation button in the Set Spindle screen.) The contents of the scroll
list are defined in the Spindle List menu. Each spindle can be individually
selected or deselected through the use of a check box. Spindles, shown
with both their name and their number, are listed numerically according
to their spindle entry number.
The restricted spindle will not appear on the scroll list of available spindles
when choosing Spindle in Configure Viscosity Test. If the user selects to
enter the spindle by number, then the choice of a restricted spindle will
present an Invalid Input message and prevent the selection of the spindle
(see Figure IV-8).

TIP: To ensure that the correct spindle code is always entered, create a
test that is saved to the DV2T memory.
TIP: The selection of spindle can be restricted by User Log In. Use this
restriction combined with a saved test configuration to ensure that
the correct spindle is always used for critical tests. See Section
IV.4.2 for details of Users and Access.
A Special Spindle can be created when the user has developed a new spindle
geometry or when using a standard Brookfield spindle in a non standard
measurement container. The Special Spindle, once created, will be available
to users through the Spindle selection in Configure Viscosity Test.
