NAVIGATINGTHROUGHTHE LCD CONTROLUNIT
• Using the LCD control unit, to perform tests,to calibrate and to
adjust the settings of the machine provides an easy and userfriendly experience.
PERFORMING THE TEST ACCORDINGTO ASTM STANDARDS
• Simply navigate through the LCD control panel by selecting“TEST (ASTM)” from the main screen.
• Choose the diameter of the cylinder (in inches) or specify the custom dimensions of your sample.
• Choose the mode from the main screen by selecting either AUTOMATIC or MANUAL.
• Press “Start” to begin the test.
PERFORMING THE TEST ACCORDINGTO EN STANDARDS
• Simply navigatethrough the LCD control panel by selecting“TEST (EN)” from the main screen.
• Choose the sample size (in millimeters) or specify the custom dimensions of your sample.
• Choose the mode from the main screen by selecting either AUTOMATIC or MANUAL.
• Press “Start” to begin the test.
THE DESIGN
• The rigid frame provides stability and firmness to the machine. Choosing the best components to build-up the machine
gives the machine more strength and longer working-age.
CALIBRATINGTHE MACHINE
• Calibration can be easily done in 1 or 2 or … 5
points
• To view the Calibration Procedure, kindly navigate
through the menu [MENU > CALIBRATION
MANUAL]
▪ The tests and calibration can be done and monitoredwith a computer by connecting it to the machine.Using the state-ofthe-art software provided by Elipslab with the machine will help performing and managing the tests in a very easy and fast way.
▪ By performing the tests via computer,the results can be saved and recalled when required. Reports can be generated
automatically by the software and sent to printer.
