48  4. Balancing a Wheel  GSP9700 Series Road Force Measurement System Operation   
4.2 Using the Auto Dataset
®
 Arms 
Auto Dataset
®
 arms perform two functions: 
1.  Input weight position measurements for balancing. 
2.  Input wheel runout measurements for Road Force Measurements. 
Refer to “Road Force Measurement,” page 133. 
Auto Dataset
®
 is a faster and more accurate method to take rim measurements than 
traditional methods. Auto Dataset
®
 is used to input rim distance, rim width, and 
weight plane location automatically. The Dataset
®
 Arms of the GSP9700 are 
positioned on the weight plane and data is entered by depressing the foot pedal.  
Automatic Weight Position Measurement 
The Dataset
®
 arms can be used to enter weight position dimensions instantly and 
accurately. The arms are “triggered” when they are moved away from their home 
position. When the arms are triggered, a blinking graphic depicting the Dataset
®
 arm 
on the “Dimension Entry” screen identifies the plane currently being inputted.

ARM TRIGGERED
(BLINKING) 
 
In most cases, the Dataset
®
 Arms are used to input the exact weight position. 
The exact weight position is entered by holding the arm(s) stable in the desired 
location and depressing the foot pedal to enter the dimensional data. 
Manual Weight Position Measurement 
While on the “Set Dimensions” view of the “Balance” primary screen, the control knob 
can be used to enter rim dimensions manually.
