Humboldt 5000 BLU Light Weight Deflectometer - Manual (Page 33)

After placing the loading device on the metal ball in the centre of the sensor
dome, unlock the transportation lock of the drop weight by pulling the orange
knob. The transportation lock should only be unlocked immediately prior to
a test being performed, as uncontrolled movements of the weight may cause
injury or damage to the device or its surroundings.
Ensure that the transportation lock is unlocked before each drop.
In case of improper use, i.e. if the weight is dropped while the transportation
lock is still pushed in, damage to the device may occur. Damage caused by
improper use is not covered by the device warranty.
If no text input is desired, select ‘NO’ by pressing the ‘START’ button. You
will automatically be forwarded to the measuring mode.
By pressing the ‘SELECT’ button you confirm the data input function with
‘YES’. You can now enter up to 23 characters of text.
Select the desired characters with <= or =>. Confirm each character with
‘ENTER’ by briefly pressing the ‘START’ button.
Select and overwrite characters already entered by pressing ‘TEXT’ (to
delete, use space character).
To confirm data input, press and hold down the ‘START’ button. You will
be forwarded directly to the measuring mode. Your data input is saved to
both the internal memory and the external media (if in use).
Every entry remains saved, but will only be stored on either the internal
memory or external media and printed on the protocol printout if the data
input mode is confirmed with ‘YES’.
If choosing ‘NO’ by pressing ‘START’ when asked for ‘DATA INPUT?’, the
last entry will remain in the memory of the data input mode, but will not
be saved to either the internal memory or external media, and will not be
printed on the protocol.
The confirmed entry will be shown in the ‘TEXT ENTRY’ field of the
protocol printout and in the ‘Comments’ field of the ‘TERRATEST 2.0’
software.
If you precede the text entry, e.g.
‘PROJECT JOE BLOGGS’, with a slash ‘/’,
the test will be saved under this file
name, e.g. ‘PROJECT JOE BLOGGS’,
when loading the data to a PC. This
facilitates managing and searching of test
data. See also chapter ‘Edit / Save
Protocol’ on page 76.
