3. DISPLAYS AND KEY OPERATIONS
3.1.2.6 Measurement mode
This mode can be divided into the following operational states:
1) Measurement in the ready state
• This is the measurement mode that is entered immediately after the power is turned on
or if another measurement mode is aborted by pressing the
C
key (or by the “CL”
command from the RS-232C interface).
• It is used to establish setups for calibration and available functions, which are not part
of the basic setup items, or to enter another measurement mode including single-run
measurement.
• Usually GO/NG judgment will not take place for measurement in the ready state,
however, GO/NG judgment can be made in the basic setup mode.
• Measurements in the ready state are unavailable for statistical processing.
2) Single-run measurement
• If the
RUN
key (otherwise input “R” command via the RS-232C interface) is pressed,
one session of measurement is performed and the results will be automatically subject
to GO/NG judgment. In addition, the measured data will be outputted for the RS-232C
interface, Digimatic Output Unit interface, and printer. The measured data will be held
(latched for the specified period) in the display.
• This data will be available for statistical processing.
3) Continuous-run measurement
• If the
C.RUN
key (otherwise input “CR” command via the RS-232C interface) is pressed,
one session of measurement is started and repeated the specified number of times. The
measured data will be automatically subject to GO/NG judgment. In addition, the
measured data will be outputted for the RS-232C interface, Digimatic Output Unit
interface, and printer.
• Press the
RUN
or
C.RUN
key again to terminate the measurement and hold the mea-
sured data on the display. If the
C
key (or “CL” command via the RS-232C inter-
face) is pressed halfway, the measurement is aborted and the ready state is returned to.
• The measurements are available for statistical processing.
4) Zero-run measurement
• A measurement where the number of samples is set to “0” is called a “zero-run mea-
surement”.
• If the
RUN
key (otherwise input the “R” command via the RS-232C interface) is
pressed, single-run measurement is started and repeated until the
RUN
key is pressed
again (or the “STOP” command is inputted via the RS-232C interface). From the
measured data the calculation items (mean, maximum value, minimum value, and
range) that have been set for the sample measurement will be calculated and the
resulting data will be automatically subject to GO/NG judgment. In addition, the
measured data will be outputted for the RS-232C interface, Digimatic Output Unit
interface, and printer. The measured data will be held on the display.
• The measured data are available for statistical processing.
• This is suitable for run-out measurement and cylindricity measurement.
