During the test, the display will show live deformation and load.
TEST: SURIMI
DEFORMATION: XX.XX cm
LOAD: XXXX.X g
Figure III.33
As soon as the surimi gel ruptures, the result screen will appear.
PEAK LOAD: 465.0 g
DEF@PEAK: 0.81 cm
GEL: 376.65 g *cm
TEMP: 19.8 C
Figure III.34
The GEL result is the multiplication of Peak Load times Def@Peak in units of g-cm.
If a temperature probe is used with the CT3, the temperature at the time of the test is also shown.
The TEMP line will not be seen in the display if a temperature probe is not used. DO NOT insert
the temperature probe into the surimi sample being tested.

There are some parameters that affect every test screen. The speed of the probe prior to triggering
is the pretest speed, which is called Pre-Speed on the display screen. This may be set over the
range of 0.1mm/s to 2.0mm/s.

The return speed after the target is reached is the post test speed which is called Post Speed on this
screen. It may be set from 0.1mm/s to 10.0mm/s. For some tests, Such as TPA, the post test speed
is irrelevant because it will always be the same as the test speed. The two tests for which this is
the case are TPA and the Cycle test.
