as well as the pulsator itself.
When using the Digimet 3000 in the Dual
Storage Mode, pulsator data is stored in
slots labeled 01A, 01B, 02A, 02B ... 30A,
30B. When both the A and B slots are
filled with pulsator data, the Digimet will
calculate the Limping data. The Limping
data is an item which appears in the
Option Menu of the Pulsator Ratio
Function. The Limping data will appear as
a percentage and in milliseconds.
The Digimet 3000 evaluates the A + B
phase of each side of the pulsator and
indicates the difference as a percentage
and in milliseconds. For example, Limping
data would appear as follows:
07AB Limping
0.1 %
2 msec.
The Limping data can be viewed on the
Digimet’s display, printed to the Digimet
Printer or uploaded to a computer for
viewing and/or printing. The printing of
Limping data from the computer is
available on the DigiData program version
3.4 and greater.
Timer Stamp
In conjunction with the Store/Recall
function, a clocking mechanism is built in.
The purpose of this clocking mechanism is
to provide an internal real-time counter
that is used to timer-stamp the stored
measurement data. Unless a label is
chosen the timer-stamp will appear in the
Store, Store Graph, Recall, Print/Upload,
Upload Graph and Print Graph screens.
When an item is printed or uploaded the
timer-stamp in addition to the label, if
chosen, will appear. The clock will
increment every second with a range of
12:00 hours. Thus when the clock reaches
11:59, the next increment will roll the clock
over to 00:00.
Labeling
When storing data or graphs, prior to
storage but after choosing the storage slot,
a screen will appear giving you the
opportunity to label your stored item. You
can use up to 16 characters. Use the up
and down arrows to choose the character/
number/symbol. Press the Enter key to
advance to the next character. Holding the
arrow keys down for more than two
seconds will advance the characters
automatically. When done with your label
pressing the Menu key will exit and save
your data or graph. Exiting, with the Menu
key, without entering labeling will attach a
timer stamp to your data. So, it is not
mandatory to choose a label.
Auto Zeroing
The Digimet 3000 has an auto-zero
capability. Due to temperature variations
which can affect certain components, the
Digimet 3000 is designed to auto zero.
This takes place any time the Digimet is in
the Vacuum Level Function or one of the
pulsation (vacuum) Functions with NO
VACUUM INPUT applied. At this time, the
Digimet displays all zeros for Avg Vac,
Max Vac, Min Vac, and Fluctuation. (Note:
If the unit has just displayed vacuum
readings, it may be necessary to reset
Max Vac before a zero reading is
obtained.) The Pulsation (vacuum)
Functions will appear blank when auto-
zeroed.
Therefore, the following procedure is
recommended: When taking Vacuum
Level of pulsation (vacuum) Function
measurements, periodically take a
reading with no vacuum input to allow
the Digimet 3000 to auto-zero.
