ASSEMBLY
Carefully remove the test frame/data acquisition assembly from the packaging and set it
on a sturdy bench top. Check the physical dimensions listed previously for the space
required for the instrument. As with any precision piece of laboratory equipment, it is
preferable to locate the Probe Tack Tester in an area where temperature and humidity
are controlled to standard conditions of 72 ± 2 degrees Fahrenheit and 50 ± 5% relative
humidity.
WARNING: Damage will occur if this unit is plugged into the incorrect
power supply. This is a dual voltage machine. Connect either 120 or 240
VAC.
Insert the annular ring in the test platform. Attach the probe to the threaded bolt on the
load cell.
Connect the power cord to its receptacle on the backside of the control cabinet.
Complete the connection by inserting the male end of the power cord into an
appropriate AC outlet. Notice that the on/off power switch is located directly beside the
power cord receptacle on the backside of the test frame.

SETUP SCREEN
Calibrate Load Cell – allows the user to calibrate the load cell.
Units – change the force units and/or the speed units.
Speed – set the test platform’s test speed. If the mode is set to D 2979 then
speed is set to 24 in/min (or 10 mm/sec) and cannot be changed.
Dwell – is used to select the dwell time. If the mode is set to D 2979 then dwell
time is set to 1 second and cannot be changed.
Mode – sets the mode of test operation. D 2979 will set the speed and dwell
time specified in the test specification and will not allow the user to change these
two settings.
