cP 123e3 20.1C
6.0RPM % 15.6
Figure II-9
If the viscosity value exceeds 99,999 scientic notation is used. In Figure II-9, the viscosity
value is 123,000 cP.
The rst press of the SELECT DISPLAY key would display Shear Stress (SS) in Dynes/cm2
(or Newtons/m2), see Figure II-10:
SS 29.0 20.1C
6.0RPM % 15.6
Figure II-10
If the shear stress value exceeds 99,999, scientic notation is used.
The next press of the SELECT DISPLAY key would display Shear Rate (SR) in 1/Sec (Figure
II-11).
SR 40.0 20.1C
6.0RPM % 15.6
Figure II-11
One more press of the SELECT DISPLAY key would result in a return to the viscosity screen,
as shown in Figure II-9.
Notes:
1. You may step through the display at any time. This will not interrupt any Viscometer
calculations that are in progress.
2. Display of shear rate and shear stress requires selection of appropriate spindles.
Otherwise, values displayed will be zero (0).
Units of Measurement
The DV-II+Pro Viscometer can be congured using the SETUP option (Section III.2.2) to
display/print in either the CGS or SI system of units.

ENTER
AUTO
RANGE
Autorange
The ENTER/AUTO RANGE key functions as auto range and allows you to determine the maximum
calculated viscosity (full scale reading) possible with the current spindle/speed setting only when
in the default screen. Pressing the key at any time will cause the current viscosity display to
change and show that maximum viscosity. The screen area displaying % (torque) will now display
a ashing “%100.0” to indicate this special condition. This maximum viscosity and ashing
