Note

The 5 V value in A1 through A6 only applies to the LX 500. A7 and A8 only
applies to the LX 1500.

Al

Sets Range to:

0.1 in = 10 V (5 V) (for inch units)
2.0 mm = 10 V (5 V) (for mm units)

A2

Sets Range to:

0.2 in = 10 V (5 V) (for inch units)
5.0 mm = 10 V (5 V) (for mm units)

A3

Sets Range to:

0.5 in = 10 V (5 V) (for inch units)
10 mm = 10 V (5 V) (for mm units)

A4

50 mm = 10 V (5 V) (for mm units)

A6

Sets Range to:

5.0 in = 10 V (5 V) (for inch units)
100 mm = 10 V (5 V) (for mm units)

A7

Sets Range to:

10.0 in = 10 V (for inch units)
200 mm = 10 V (for mm units)

A8

Sets Range to:

20.0 in = 10 V (for inch units)
500 mm = 10 V (for mm units)

Tn

Target
Distance

Sets the target distance (that is, the distance from the front panel of the laser extensometer
to the front surface of the retro-reflective target on the specimen). This command depends
on which system of units was set via the Units command. The number after the command
specifies the target distance selection. The target distance selection is a numeric value.
The distance choices are:

LX500: T1 = 381 mm (15 in), T2 = 304 mm (12 in)

LX1500: T1 = 457 mm (18 in), T2 = 381 mm (15 in)
