VI.6.3 Utilities → Print Programs
This function prints the parameters of defined programs in memory at the printer. Be sure that printer is connected to the Rheometer and ready for operation.
In the case, the printer is not ready for operation at launching “Print Programs” function, the error message will be indicated:
ERROR #1
Printer not ready!
<OK> cont. <ST> stop
In case, this error message appears, please ensure, that the printer is ready and its sheet feeder contains paper.
Press OK key to try printing again or push ST key to return back to the Menue.
VI.6.4 Utilities → Measuring systems
With this function you can create new measuring system or change already defined measuring systems.
Measuring systems are represented by following values. This values might be edited:
•Name of measuring system
•Shear rate factor Kγ [min/s](k_gamma)
•Shear stress factor τ‰ [Pa](tau_prom)
Only authorized personnel is permitted to change constants of the measuring system!
After starting the function you will be prompted to select the measuring system you want to edit. Select the list item “NEW” to generate a new measuring system.
