Joints
The set of parameters that controls a test process is within a joint. This section describes how to setup the joint parameters necessary to do a test.
The device can store up to 10000 joints into its own memory.
In the Home page, select Joints. The following is displayed:
A | Search button | B | Barcode button |
C | Command button | D | Play button |
E | List of Joints |
Below are the columns that define the list of Joints:
Name: it is assigned when the Joint is created. For more information about how to edit the Joint name, see “Editing a Joint".
Range torque: it is assigned when the Joint is created. For more information about how to edit the range torque, see "Editing a Joint”.
Range angle: it is assigned when the Joint is created. For more information about how to edit the range angle, see "Editing a Joint”.
To sort the columns that define the list of Joints: tap the column to be sorted, the up arrow (placed on the right of the column heading) lists the Joint Name (or Range Torque / Range angle) details in ascending alphabetical order; the down arrow lists the Joint Name (or Range Torque / Range angle) details in descending alphabetical order.
To customize the sequence of the columns that defines the list of Joints: tap the column heading to be moved (Name / Range torque / Range angle), then drag and drop it to the necessary position.
When enabled by external software, the Barcode button (
) allows to scan a barcode to search the corresponding Joint inspection(s) on the measuring device. If the search finds a single Joint inspection, it is automatically run; if the search finds multiple Joint inspections with the same barcode identifier, run the inspection of interest from the list.
The Play button gets active only after adding/updating the inspection(s) linked to the Joint. If enabled, tap Play to run the test.
