Copyright 1991
This program is intended to demonstrate the use of the RS-232 command
set employed by the Brookfield Engineering Labs Model DV-III Rheometer
in its External mode. This program and/or any of the commands used
within may be freely used in your own applications.
Press any key to continue...
Please remove the spindle and press any key to begin the Auto-Zero process.
Auto-Zeroing...
Auto-Zero complete. Replace spindle then press any key to continue.
Enter model multiplier (See Table A.2 of Appendix A in the DV-III manual)
Ex: A model LV rheometer has a multiplier of 0.09373 ? 1
Enter the spindle SMC (See Table A.1 of Appendix A in the DV-III manual)
Ex: An SC4-31 spindle has an SMC of 32 ? 25
Enter the spindle SRC (See Table A.1 of Appendix A in the DV-III manual)
Ex: An SC4-31 spindle has an SRC of 0.34 ? .34
The DV-III will begin running at 10 RPM and will increment
its speed by 10 RPM every 10 seconds. At the end of each
10 second interval, a data point will be taken and displayed
on the screen. This will continue until a data point is taken
at 150 RPM at which point the DV-III will return to 0 RPM.
Press any key to continue...
