Configuring Thrust Measurements
Thrust measurements are configured using the controls in Figure 63.

Parameters Values Comments
Units Select from
displacement units
When units are changed, the Calibration Offset value is converted to the selected units.
IMPORTANT: It is possible to lose precision when converting to/from various EU selections, particularly when converting from a small
range, such as a “mil” to a large range such as “m”. When you change units, verify that the converted offset is as expected.
Time Constant 0.1…60.0 seconds The time constant calculation effectively smooths the measurements as it behaves similarly to a high pass filter.
The smaller the time constant the more responsive the measurement is to rapid changes (or noise).
