EXAMPLE
This test would produce a first
peak result
The display will show % DROP OFF and SET. Press the ENTER
key to change % DROP OFF to % DROP ON. Press DOWN key
to move the arrow cursor to SET % and press ENTER key.
To determine what precisely is considered a break, you must
define the % drop of full-scale value from the peak load
observed prior to the break occurring.
To set the required % drop use UP and DOWN keys to adjust
the value and press ENTER key to confirm the selection.
The % drop value selected also acts as a threshold, below
which the % drop function will not be active.
To disable the % DROP function, press the ENTER key. % DROP
OFF will now be displayed.
Example: AFG 100N has % drop of 20 (= 20N). If the peak load
before sample break is 50N, the load must drop to 30N in order for
the AFG to detect a 1st peak of 50N. If load continues to be applied
above 50N (e.g. to 75N), the AFG will return 75N as MAX and 50N
as 1st peak.
