Figure III-19
Note: When this mode has begun, a press of the MOTOR ON/OFF/ESCAPE key
will cancel the Timed Stop sequence and return the user to the screen of Figure
III-14. Also note that data will be displayed in the currently selected method
i.e. CGS or SI units. Pressing the SELECT DISPLAY key allows display of
alternate data values such as Shear Stress, Shear Rate or Torque.
The seconds display will decrement from fty-nine (59 ) to zero (0) in one (1) second intervals.
When seconds reaches zero (0), the minutes value will decrement by one (1) minute. This
will continue until all of the time has elapsed at which point the viscometer will display the
following screen:

TIMED STOP DONE
Figure III-20
At this point the viscometer will stop the motor and continue to display this screen until any
key except the UP or DOWN ARROW key, the PRINT key or the SELECT DISPLAY key is pressed. The
user can, while this display is current, press the UP or DOWN ARROW keys to view the torque
and speed that were current at the time the display was frozen. The display would appear as
follows:
%=76.4 RPM=100
TIMED STOP DONE
Figure III-21
The display will switch between that of Figures III-20 and III-21 for each press of the UP
or DOWN arrow keys. A press of the PRINT screen would send one standard print line to the
attached printer for each press of the PRINT key. Pressing any key (except the UP or DOWN ARROW
keys, the PRINT key or the SELECT DISPLAY key) will cause the viscometer to exit the Time To
Stop mode and resume operation with the screen of Figure III-18 displayed awaiting another
Timed Stop run.
The user can press the PRINT key while in either of these two screens (Figures III-20 and III-21)
to send one standard print string to the attached printer as many times as the user presses the
PRINT key. In addition, the PRINT key can be pressed during the actual measurement to obtain
instantaneous data. Pressing any other key will exit this mode and return the viscometer to
normal operation.
