6 Measure the DUT.
Press [
Start
].
Slowly tap the device 10 times with the impact hammer at or near the accelerometer.
If your hammer taps consistently result in overloads, increase the input ranges in step 3
until overloads no longer occur.
Specifying a trigger delay in step 4 allows you to see the leading edge of the
hammer tap.
