TemperatureistheinputvaluefromaconnectedBrookeldtemperatureprobe.TheDV3Tis
providedwithaDVP-94Yprobethatcanbeinsertedintothetestsampleorawaterbath.The
Cone/PlateversionoftheDV3Tcanbeutilizedwithasamplecupthatincludesanembedded
temperatureprobe.SomeBrookeldaccessoriesincludetemperatureprobes(Thermosel)or
optionalchamberswithembeddedtemperatureprobes(SmallSampleAdapter).Theunitsof
temperaturearedenedintheGlobalSettingssectionoftheSettingsMenu
.
Thetemperaturedisplaywillbe----whennotemperatureprobeisconnected.
SpeedistheselectedspeedfromtheCongureViscosityTestscreen.
TIP:SpeedcanbechangedbyswitchingfromtheRunningViscosityTestscreentothe
ViewTestscreenusingthecommandkeyatthebottomofthescreen.
TIP:WhenSpeedischangedintheViewTestscreen,theTestNamewillbechangedto
unsaved.
Thestatusofthetestcongurationisindicatedinthegreybarabovethedataelds.Aconguration
thathasbeensavedwillbeindicatedbyadisplayofthetestlename.Acongurationthatisnot
savedwillbeindicatedbyadisplayofUnsavedTest.
TheReal Time GraphisdisplayedatthebottomoftheRunningViscosityTestscreen.Thisgraph
showsallmeasurementsduringthelifeofthetest.TheY-axiscanrepresentanydataeld.The
dataeldrepresentedonthegraphisshownbythebluedot;forexample,inFigureIII-14,Torque
isshownonthegraph.Anydataeldcanbeselectedbytouchingthescreen.
TheRealTimeGraphwillindicatedatapointscollectedaspartofthetestwithabluedotonthe
dataline.Attheconclusionofthetest,theRealTimeGraphisdisplayedforreview.OncetheOK
buttonispressed,onlythedatapointscollectedaspartofthetestwillbeavailableforreview/save.
TheRealTimeGraphcannotbeseenagainoncetheResultspageisinview.
QCLimitswillbeindicatedontheRealTimeGraphwhentheselectionforY-Axisisthesameas
theselectionforQCLimits(seeSectionIII.9).
TwoCommandKeysareavailableontheRunningViscosityTestscreen:StopTestandViewTest.
Stop Test:Immediatelystopsthecurrenttest.Theuserwillbepresentedwithaconrmation
box.ThetestwillcontinuetorununtilYesisselectedintheConrmationbox.
Ifanydatahadbeencollectedduringthetest,theuserwillbepresentedwiththe
Resultsscreen(seeSectionIII.11).Ifdatawasnotcollected,theuserwillbe
returnedtotheCongureViscosityTestscreen.
TIP:  If the operator selects “Do not show this message again” within the
Conrmationbox,thentheConrmationboxwillnolongerbedisplayedwhen
StopTestispressed.ThisconditioncanberesetintheDisplaysectionofUser
Settings
.
View Test: Changetheviewfrommeasurementtotestparametersincluding:Spindle,Speed,
Temperature,EndCondition,DataCollection,QCLimits,Instructions,andDensity.
TheViewTestscreenincludesalivedisplayofTorqueandaTimeparameterthat
showsthetotalelapsedtimeforthetest(seeFigureIII-15).
