“smart” load cell technology. Maintains accuracy even when force is applied o-

General SFG Tesng
To conduct a test, force in excess of the default threshold must be exerted on the gauge. The test begins
when either the ready me expires aer the threshold has been crossed or, if no ready me is set, the default
threshold force must be exceeded. A test ends when test me expires or the force on the gauge drops back
below the threshold. The display then indexes to the next repeon in the series. Aer all repeons for a test
are completed, the display indexes to the next sequenal test number. Connue tesng with this method unl
all tests are recorded in the Console’s memory.
Prior to beginning a test, ensure that the test defaults are set as desired (i.e. unit of measurement, number of
tests, number of repeons, etc.). Once test defaults are set, choose the “Test” opon from the main menu,
and follow these steps:
1. Select “SFG” from the Test Menu (Note: if you have purchased a new instrument and it is not on the list, see
page 18 for instrucons or contact customer service to register your new instrument).
2. Upon selecon, the Commander Echo Console will aempt to connect with the Stac Force Gauge.
3. Press the “On” buon for the corresponding Stac Force Gauge to establish a connecon with the
Commander Echo Console.
4. The Commander Echo Console will require a instrument zeroing prior to starng each exam. With the
instrument in a neutral posion (no pressure applied), press the Control Sck to set the instrument zero.
5. The Commander Echo will automacally advance to the next available test in the series. If no test data is
currently being stored for the instrument, it will begin with Test 1. If all of the selected tests already have
data stored, then the Commander Echo Console will display Message 2 on the LCD and not allow further
tesng unl the data has been erased, or the test sengs have been altered to allow for more tests.
6. Ready the paent and begin the test (Note: see the oponal Mulmedia Help System CD for further
informaon on specic tesng procedures).
7. Once you have completed the pre-set number of repeons for each side/test, the Commander Echo will
automacally advance to the next test in the exam.
8. Once all tests have been completed, the Commander Echo Console will display Message 2 on the LCD to
nofy you that there are no more empty tests available. Pressing the Control Sck will bring you back to the
main menu
 Note: In review mode, the Console dierenates between SFG push/pull by designang push values as
negave and pull values as posive. In test mode, SFG displays the magnitude as posive regardless of direcon
unl the value crosses the threshold. For the rest of the test, the values will be posive for the force direcon
that is in direcon of the crossed threshold and negave in the opposite direcon. The Console will only record
posive test values.
12” Cable (9AC007) – The cable can be used for dierent liing, pushing or
pulling, or stac strength tests.
4” Push Disk (9AC004) – The 4” Push Disk can be used for exerng force
against at items. The Push Disk oers more surface area for pushing
acvies, and greater exibility for various tesng applicaons than the Flat
pad. Aaches to the Force Input receptacle.
