“Preparation Instructions”: Choose between two settings:
“None”
8
: No preparation instructions will be included in your Test Sequence. This is primarily
suitable for Test Sequences that do not normally require user interaction, e.g. Test
Sequences using the SERVICE Method. For all other Methods, selection of “Standard”
is recommended.
“Standard”: The following preparation instructions will be included in your Test Sequence and
correspond to those typically found in any standard SOP. The user must execute the
instructions and confirm with “OK” before being able to continue with the rest of
the defined Test Sequence:
The Test Sequence “Name” has started.
Please carry out the following:
1. Clean the weighing pan.
2. Level the balance.
3. Connect and switch on the printer.
4. Make sure that the test weights are ready.
5. Make sure that the tweezers/weighing forks are ready.
When finished - press “OK” and follow the next test sequence instructions.
“Method”: The Method defines the type of test to be performed. Choose from a list of six different Methods. On
selecting the Method you will be required to define the test weights and tolerances to be utilized for
the test. This is described further in section 3.2.3.
Factory Setting: None
“Action if Failure”: Allows you to define how the balance should behave if a test fails or is aborted. Choose from the fol-
lowing three settings:
“None”
8
: The user can continue work as normal.
“Warning”: The user can continue work as normal but will receive a specified number of warnings
that the Test Sequence has failed and will be prompted to restart the Test Sequence.
If the specified number of warnings has been reached and the last restart of the Test
Sequence fails, the failed Test Sequence will cause the balance to be blocked.
Note: These settings are described further in section 3.2.2.
“Attempts”: Specify the number of attempts allowed to perform the test. When the number of
attempts has been reached and the test has not been successful, the balance will
be blocked.
In contrast to the Warning setting, it is not possible to continue working on the
balance until the test has passed.
Choose from 1
8
, 2 or 3 Attempts and Until Passed. Until Passed allows unlimited
number of attempts.
Note: When GWP History is enabled, only the last result and the number of attempts
are recorded.
