3.2.3.2 EC Method for Eccentricity Test
The aim of the EC Method (Eccentricity Test) is to ensure that any deviation due to eccentricity is within the tolerances required by the
user’s SOP. The result is set equal to the largest of the 4 calculated eccentricities (4-7).
Method Sequence:
1. Zero
2. Load Test Weight (Center)
3. Tare
4. Reposition Test Weight (to Front Left)
5. Reposition Test Weight (to Rear Left)
6. Reposition Test Weight (to Rear Right)
7. Reposition Test Weight (to Front Right)
8. Unload all weights
9. Zero
“Test Weight”: A pre-defined test weight and its corresponding test tolerances can be selected here (see section
3.2.3.1).
Note: The tolerances T1 and T2 apply to the individual weight measurements and not to the eccentricity
calculation.
Note: If you require the eccentricity test to be fully executed the test weight tolerances should be set
to 100 %.
“Tol for Eccentricity Dev”: The EC Method uses two result tolerances (method tolerances) EC T1 and EC T2 which are applied to
the calculated standard deviation of the Test Sequence and functions in the same way as described for
T1 and T2 in section 3.2.3.1. If Tolerance EC T1 is exceeded the Eccentricity Test will Pass with Warning.
If Tolerance EC T2 is exceeded the Eccentricity Test will Fail.
A complete list of the settings can be printed out by pressing the «F» key while the Test Sequence menu is open.
