5 Operation

5.1 Description of the user interface

The main screen consists of several sections:

Below the title bar, there is a tool bar with icons that can be selected by a mouse click. These

icons are grouped according to their functions.

Below this bar, you can find an area where the measuring points are displayed graphically

(“Graphical evaluation”).

The next section below the graphic shows a chart with the measuring points determined on the

right and an area with statistical data on the left-hand side.

The lower edge of the main window shows two status bars containing important information,

directly above each other.

The lower bar shows the statistical settings of the program that can be defined in the settings

screen.

The upper status bar shows the dynamic settings or data of the PCE-FM 200 which are directly

taken from the connected device. These include the selected unit.

7 Operation

7.1 First use of the software

Before the PCE-FM 200 can work with the software, the assigned COM port must be set in the

software once. It can be set via the “settings dialog”

In addition to entering the connection data, the settings for the date and time format and for the

decimal format can be made here.

7.2 Connect to the PCE-FM 200

Note – the meter requires you to enable “print” mode or F-12 in the FM meter options menu for

data to be transferred to the PC. Configure F-12 for “conti” or continuous sending.

After the desired settings have been made and the settings dialog has been closed with a click

on the "Apply" button, the connection to the PCE-FM 200 can be established by clicking on the

icon.

If the connection has been successfully established, the term "Connected" is displayed in green

on the status bar for the dynamic data.

If, however, no connection has been established, the term "Disconnected" is displayed in red.

7.3 Disconnect from the PCE-FM 200

By clicking on the icon, an active connection to the PCE-FM 200 can be terminated.

If you exit the software while the connection is active, the connection will also be terminated.

7.4 Numerical display

In the lower part of the main window, all the measured values are tabulated.

The chart can be sorted by columns by clicking on the respective column heading

("Date", "Time", "Duration" and "Measurement value").

Note:

These data come directly from the PCE- FM 200; the time can thus deviate from the PC time.

7.5 Statistical data

The statistics include the number of measured points, the smallest and largest measured force

levels and the average value. Also, they include the date, start time, end time and duration of

measurement.

7.6 Graphical representation

In the area for the graphical evaluation, the selected unit ("N","kgf","lbf") is shown on the y axis

and the duration (in seconds) is shown on the x axis.

Moving the mouse cursor to a point on the displayed line makes a small information window

with the data (time and unit) of the currently selected measurement value pop up after a short

time.

A freely selectable part of the displayed graphics can be enlarged.

For this purpose, the corresponding icon in the toolbar (“Enlarge the graphics area ("Zooming")

or move the enlarged graphics) must be a magnifying glass .

Then, a rectangle can be drawn over a part of the graphics by holding the mouse button down.

When the mouse is released, the selected area appears as a new graphic.

As soon as at least one enlargement has been made, it is possible to switch from enlargement

mode to shift mode by clicking on the icon (“Enlarge the graphics area ("Zooming") or move the

enlarged graphics) with the magnifying glass icon.

Shift mode is represented by the icon.

If the mouse is now placed over the graphics area and then the left mouse button is pressed,

the depicted section can be moved by holding the mouse button down.

Another click on the icon changes back to enlargement mode, which is recognizable by the

icon.

The original graphics can be restored at any time by clicking on the icon next to the

magnifying glass or hand.

The background of the graphics and its representation can be changed via the icon to the

right. A click on the icon works like a switch:

A single click makes the division of the background finer and adds some more dots to the

graphics. A further click on the icon changes back to standard view.

The currently displayed graphics can also be printed.

A click on the icon opens the "Print" dialog.

7.7 Performing the measurement

If an connection to the PCE-FM 200 is active, a new measurement can be started.

After clicking on the corresponding icon in the toolbar ("Start a measurement"), a new dialog is

displayed, with the help of which additional options, relevant for the upcoming measurement,

can be determined.

An ongoing measurement can be terminated by clicking on the icon in the toolbar.

7.8 Export of series of measurements

Measurement series can also be exported. The entire content of one series of measurements

can be exported in CSV format by using the icon of the toolbar.

7.9 Loading and saving series of measurements

A series of measurements can be loaded and saved via the and the icon in the toolbar.
