Accidental Tripping During Gelation Measurement; Stopping During Gelation Measurement - Techne GT-5 Bedienungsanleitung

If the paddle switch is closed in the 'HOLD' state the timer is not stopped and the paddle continues
to reciprocate. This allows you time to place the sample under the paddle and get ready for gelation
measurement.
To commence gelation measurement once everything is set up, just press 'Start' button once and then
follow instructions shown above in 1.

ACCIDENTAL TRIPPING DURING GELATION MEASUREMENT

If the paddle is accidentally tripped during gelation, the timer can be restarted by pressing 'Restart' button
once. Note: that the timer is restarted from when it was stopped, therefore the elapsed time between
stopping and restarting the timer is not recorded.

STOPPING DURING GELATION MEASUREMENT

The instrument can be stopped during gelation by pressing the 'Stop' button once. The paddle stops
reciprocating, the LED is extinguished and the word 'STOP' is indicated on the display. To restart the
gelation process just press the 'Restart' button once. Note: While in stop mode, the timer will continue
to run, and when restarted will indicate actual gelation time. However, if the 'Stop' button is pressed a
second time, having just stopped it, the timer will reset and the instrument will enter the 'Hold' state,
(see 2. above).
