8-4. Time - The range and the high end of the scale on this horizontal "X" axis is determined
by the TIME SCALE and DIVIDE (TIME) values as set on the [SCALE] pulldown
menu. The low end of the axis scale is zero (0).
The TIME SCALE setting represents the number of samples (Torque/Time readings)
to be plotted for each fastening. A Time Scale setting of 200 will result in a Fastening
Curve with 200 points (Torque/Time readings) plotted on the graph for each
fastening.
The DIVIDE(TIME) setting represents the sampling frequency in milliseconds. A
DIVIDE(TIME) setting of "10" would result in a Fastening Curve with Torque/Time
readings plotted on the graph after every ten (10) milliseconds (.01 seconds).
The TIME SCALE (number of samples plotted) multiplied by the DIVIDE(TIME)
(length of time between samples) is equal to the range shown on the Time axis. To
use the axis scale to determine (approximate) Fastening Curve duration, the
beginning (Fastening Curve start) point must be subtracted from the value of the final
(Fastening Curve end) point.
