By pressing “ENTER”, you will see the following screen:
The exit keys ‘MEM/CLEAR’ and ‘◄’ will continue to perform their normal functions, bringing you to
the viscometer’s main menu screen.
8.5.1 TTT (Time to Torque) and TTS (Time to Stop)
Select this function, pressing the ‘ENTER’ key when the ‘TTT and TTS’ option is highlighted and the
viscometer will show you the following screen:
This screen will allow us to activate and configure the ‘TIME TO TORQUE’ (TTT) and ‘TIME TO
STOP’ (TTS) options that we will currently explain:
Time to Torque (TTT): the ‘TIME TO TORQUE’ field contains the torque value (%) at which
the viscometer will stop the measurement. The viscometer gradually changes the speed of
the spindle in order to approach the selected torque. When this torque is attained the
viscometer stops the measurement and the viscosity measurement is displayed on the
screen.
Time to Stop (TTS): the ‘TIME TO STOP’ field is where we program the amount of time we
want the measurement or experiment to last. Programming this field with a time limit will
define the maximum duration of the viscometer’s measurement. When the viscometer stops
because the program is finished, the viscosity measurement will be displayed on the screen.
To select the field that we want to activate (TTT or TTS) we use the ‘’ or ‘’ keys to jump from
field to field cyclically. Then press the ‘ENTER’ key to activate the selected option. The options for
the two fields TTT and TTS can only either be ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’.
If the ‘Time to Torque’ or ‘Time to Stop’ fields are not activated (shows the ‘OFF’ status) the ‘Time’
and ‘Torque’ fields cannot be accessed.
Press ‘ENTER’ to activate the ‘Time to Torque’ field (‘ON’ position) and the ‘Torque’ field will be
highlighted. Press ‘ENTER’ again to proceed to the modifications. The following screen will appear:
