8. Taking measurements
Prerequisites:
– The device is connected to at least one sensor (
– You have created at least one product (
– The machine has been calibrated to analyze the product to be measured (
Taking measurements
1. If the device is off, turn it on.
2. Select a product.
3. Start measuring.
4. Read the values.
The measurement process differs depending on the type of application:
– Single measurement (solid product in the laboratory)
Following an empty sensor adjust, the product is placed in or on the sensor. The measurement
is started. The measured values (moisture, density, temperature) are displayed.
– Multiple measurements (bulk material in the laboratory)
Following an empty sensor adjust, a measuring cup is placed in or on the sensor. The measure-
ment is started. If necessary the position of the measuring cup is changed, e.g. by rotating it. The
measured values (moisture, density, temperature) are displayed. A new measurement is trig-
gered.
For more information, see:
Taking measurements in the laboratory (Details on page 46)
Displaying values
You can display multiple measured values together and in different ways. Each of the displays
can be adapted to the requirements of the application environment.
There are the following display options:
– Displaying values as a table (
– Displaying measurements for moisture, density, or temperature
– Displaying an analogue depiction of the value at the cursor position or of the selected value
(

– Displaying the statistics for a measurement series

Reference (Details on page 65).
