III.7 Selecting Data Collection
TheDV3TRheometeroffersseveraloptionsfordatacollection.TheDataCollectionsettingis
showninCongureViscosityTestdirectlyundertheTemperaturedisplay.Thefactorysettingis
SinglePoint(seeFigureIII-8).Pressingthebluearrow,inthiseld,willpresenttheDataCollection

Single Point:CollectonlyasingledatapointwhentheEndConditionismet.
Single Point Averaging:Specifyanamountoftimeoverwhichtoaveragemeasureddata.
CollectasingledatapointwhentheEndConditionismet.This
datapointisanaveragedvalue.Ifthetimeforaveragingisshorter
thanthetotaltimeforthestep,thentheaveragewillbeperformed
forthespeciedtimeattheendofthetest.
  Example1:TheEndConditionisTimewithavalueof1minuteand30seconds,theSingle
PointAveragingDurationis30seconds,thesingledatapointcollectedfromthis
stepwillbeanaverageofthedatameasuredfrom1minuteto1minute30seconds.
Multi Point:Collect multiple datapointsbased on time.TheData Interval isspeciedin
Hours:Mins:Secs.IftheEndConditionissettoTime,thenthetotalnumberof
