Sensitivity The drift of the weight value divided by the causing load drift.
Sensitivity Test Checking of sensitivity.
Task Tasks define when the test sequence should be executed, how it should be started and for XP balances,
which user should do the test sequence. Before a task can be defined, the test sequence should already
be defined.
Test Collective term for the checking of a single function or a whole device.
Test Sequence Describes the manner of test (method) and with which weight this test should be executed. Furthermore,
you also define the behaviour of the balance if the test fails. It also describes the tolerances for the
test weight.
Test History History of internal and external tests. It is a record of the test results that have been recorded in a
memory that is specially secured against power failure. The options in the test history allows you to
choose which results you want to view or print out in the documentation.
Test Tolerances Tolerance that defines how much margin of error is allowed for an individual weight measurement in
a test.
Test Weight An external weight piece which is used as reference measurement.
Testing of Adjustment Corresponds to the sensitivity test in accordance to GWPExcellence™ Nomenclature.
Warning Limit Tolerance of a process relative to its target value. Violation of this limit is not in itself an infringement
of the quality requirements, but indicates drift of the process and therefore requires more intensive
monitoring of the process.
Weight Tolerances a) Tolerances of external weights that are specified on the certificate, or
b) Tolerances that pertain to a measured weight (Ex. Tare weight).
