PRECAUTIONS
1. WARNING!! Test samples and fixtures can break or shatter,
wear eye and body protection to avoid injury.
2. WARNING!! REGARDLESS of whether the unit is ON or OFF,
DO NOT exceed the capacity of the gauge or the load cell will
be damaged.Avoid shock load. At 110% of the rated capacity, the
overload LED indicator flashes to warn.
3. Make sure this gauge and all peripherals are powered down
before attaching any cables.
4. DO NOT disassemble the gauge. Disassembly voids warranty.

less than 5 lbf-in (–NG). GREEN lights
between 5–10 lbf-in (OK) and RED lights
over 10 lbf-in (+NG). Setpoint output is
available through the Communications
port (see page 14).

3.Tare and Zero
‘All Reset’ is the factory default that tares
and zeroes the display. Press ZERO before
clamping the sample in position to zero the
display and tare any preload.After clamping
do not tare.
If you need to zero without tare see page 41
‘Peak Only’.
1.Programming
Select unit and set the high/low setpoints if required, using the
steps on pages 6-8.
2.Measurement Mode
Real Time Measurement
Press ON/OFF to turn on the gauge.The gauge automatically
enters real time mode and displays transient torque values.
Peak Measurement
Press ON/OFF to turn on the gauge. Press PEAK to capture
peak measurements. In Multi display mode ‘P’ is displayed and in
Single display mode ‘Peak’ is displayed. Peak torque values do not
change until a higher value is measured. Press PEAK again to
return to real time.
page 9
OPERATION
6
When measuring, hold the torque
sensor inline not at an angle.
‘Or Peak’ is the factory default and captures either clockwise
peak or tension measured during a test.
‘And Peak’ captures both clockwise peak and counterclock-
wise peak (See page 34 for programming instructions).
When ‘And Peak’ is programmed press PEAK and ‘+P’ is dis-
played. Press PEAK again and ‘–P’ is displayed.
‘+P’ displays the clockwise peak captured during a test; press
PEAK to display the counterclockwise peak.
‘–P’ displays the counterclockwise peak captured during a test;
press PEAK to display the clockwise peak.

STORING AND COLLECTING DATA
During measurement in either Peak or Real Time mode, press
SEND to store data. Up to 1,000 torque values may be stored in
memory.
Connect the gauge and a PC with the included USB cable. Press
SEND and data is simultaneously stored in memory and transmitted
to the PC. Use included Force Logger (see page 20) or optional SW-1X
or other software to collect and display torque data.

3.Downloading Data from Memory
Choose between the following download methods.
1. USB Data Download from Memory
1) Connect the gauge and computer receiving data with the USB
cable.
2) Turn on the gauge and Force Logger.
3) Under the Data menu, select Import
Gauge Memory.The gauge memory
will fill the Data Table which can be
saved as a CSV file.
2. RS-232C Data Download from Memory
Connect the gauge and device receiving data with a CB-208 cable.
All functions can be duplicated remotely by using the RS-232C
interface. Commands must be sent in uppercase ASCII character
format followed by a carriage return [CR].
RS-232C Signal: 8 data, 1 stop, no parity. Baud Rate: 19,200 bps
Refer to the tables on pages 16-19 for ASCII commands.
3. Mitutoyo Digimatic Signal
Connect the CB-308 cable to the communications port and the
device receiving the data. Set up parameters as instructed from
the Mitutoyo processor manual.
4. ±2 VDC Analog Signal
Connect the CB-108 analog cable and
communications port receiving the
voltage signal.Voltage comes through
the D/A converter and resets to zero
when a tare function is performed.
5. External Power ON/OFF (Same as ON/OFF key function)
Connecting #24 (EX_Power) and #30 (GND) of the communications
port turns ON the gauge and connecting #24 (EX_Power) and
#30 (GND) while #29 (Shift) and #30 (GND) are connected
turns OFF the gauge.
Voltage ±2V
Update 2,000 times/sec
Zero offset 20mV maximum
Span error ±1%
Load Impedance 1KΩor higher
Specifications

page 13
Use contact closure only and DO NOT apply voltage
to #24 through #30 port pins.
6. External Zero (Same as ZERO key function)
Connecting #25 (EX_ZERO) and #30 (GND) of the communications
port resets the torque display. (Tare, peak reset, or peak reset only
are dependent on the Zero/Tare Reset settings, see page 39).
7. External Send (same as the SEND key function)
Connecting #26 (EX_SEND) and #30 (GND) of the communications
port stores up to 1,000 data into gauge memory.
8. External Peak (same as PEAK key function)
Connecting #27 (EX_PEAK) and #30 (GND) of the communications
port turns on peak mode.
