always 01)

If the torque is below 10‰ (scale is 0‰ to 1,000‰), the measurement results may not be

as accurate as desired. In this case the user defined parameters should be changed so the

torque is higher than 10%.,

If the display field for the torque indicates: “Mlow!”, these values are below the range of

resolution of the rheometer.

If the temperature is not displayed, the measuring sensor is not connected and will show as

“1000.0°C” on the printout.

The display is updated with every new measuring point. The current measurement can be
cancelled at any time with the

ST

key.

After a measurement is completed or if the

ST

key is pressed, the display field for Step

indicates “END” or “BREAK”. The display alternates at intervals of about four seconds

between the last displayed measuring point and information about the measurement:

Program end

Pressing the

key stops the alternating display and returns the user to the menu.

Note: The last selected program parameters remain in the memory even after switching

off the Rheometer.

VI.5.3 MAIN Menu Run Program

This function begins a user defined measurement program. With a Program Measurement,

the user can also set values as a linear function of time, such as D[s

-1

] = f(t). It is useful

to use “Run Program” when doing repeat measurements involving the same preset values

and the same measuring system. The user only needs to run the program rather than select

parameters each time they need to run the test. Four standard programs (and more optional

ones) may be defined. Section VI.6.2 Utilities Edit Program describes how to prepare or

modify such a program.
