Curve C. Corrects tests for curved specimens that are cylindrical or spherical.
②
User C. Performs multi-point correction and shift correction.
Tips
• Curve correction can only be set for Rockwell hardness tests.
• The correction that can be set for user correction varies according to each test.
Rockwell hardness test: Multi-point correction and shift correction settings are available.
Plastic hardness test, Brinell hardness test: Only the shift correction setting is available.
Indent depth Brinell hardness test, indent depth Vickers hardness test: No settings are available.
2.3.1 Curve Correction
Curve correction complies with the ISO (JIS) and ASTM standards.
The curve correction switches between [ON] (enabled) and [OFF] (disabled) each time the button is
touched.
If the curve correction is [ON], touch either the [ISO] button or [ASTM] button to set the compliance
standard.
If [ISO] is selected, cylindrical or spherical correction is available. If [ASTM] is selected, only cylindrical
correction is available.
The input range for the diameter of a specimen varies according to the type of curve correction.
