Table of contents

The D70 display uses 1 or 2 sensors to carry out any kind of measurement testing. Basic
measurements (using a sensor) can be carried out, as can measurements of sums and meas-
urements of differences.
The screen can be split to show two displays. The D70 can make direct (static) measurements
or dynamic measurements (min, max, etc.)
Measurements can be made in comparison to a reference level, i.e. a benchmark.
The D70 has a large number of customisable functions, making it suitable for a vast range of
testing applications.The D70 display can be connected to a PC using its RS-232 and USB ports.
A multifunctional pedal can also be connected to the device.

Connectivity
The D70 has four M5-thread holes, meaning that it can be affixed to a worktop, or the base can
be removed in order to place it anywhere.
Note: The four anti-slip pads need to be removed before the D70 can be affixed to a worktop.

The D70 has an RS-232 port, which means that it can be connected to a machine or external
system. The speed, parity and format can be adjusted by the user.
Connector pins
Equipped with a 9-pin SUB-D female connector.

Mini-USB connector
The mini-USB connector has two functions:
1. Powering the display via the adapter. This adapter supplies a regulated constant voltage of
5V/1A.
2. Transferring measurements. If you connect the D70 to a PC, it will be detected as a keyboard
using the standard drivers for the operating system. When you transfer a measurement, the
number will be «written» to the PC as if you had typed it in on a keyboard.

The second part of the display (measurement screen) can be launched by tapping the measure icon.
tThis part displays the results of measurements so that they can be used. The D70 starts up
on this screen In order to access the icon panel, tap the menu icon on the measurement
screen.
Windows message confirming that the D70 has been correctly detected and installed:
The graphical interface of your D70 has been designed for easy use. This chapter gives an over-
view of the various screens and commands available.
The two main parts
The graphical interface of your D70 is made up of two main parts:
tOne part where you can configure the device and the measurement.This screen is made up
of icons that open other windows on top of the icon panel.

The following information is visible at the top of the screen:
General details
Name of the active piece
and calculation formula:
Here, it is piece 1,

Static or dynamic (max,
min, etc.) mode
Unit: mm, µm or
inch
You can open configuration windows by tapping the icons in the icon panel.

The information is then recorded in a variety of ways and saved for re-use when the window
is closed. The following ways of recording the data are available:
tMultiple choice box.Tap the black arrows to cy-
cle through the values.
tInput box. When you tap the input box, a virtual
keyboard appears.
tClosing a window. All windows can be closed
by tapping the white X with a red background
in the top-left of the window.

This chapter sets out the various windows that can be launched from the icon panel. As a re-
minder, the icon panel can be launched by tapping the appropriate button on the measurement
screen.
You can fully configure your D70 (language, communication, etc.) from this screen. The meas-
urement (precision, tolerance, etc.) can also be configured from this screen.
The following six sections describe the six icons that appear on this screen :

Definition
Tapping the « definition » icon launches the following window.
In this window, you can define the precision, unit, formula, tolerance, and benchmark of
each of the two available configurations for the piece.
This window has two areas allowing you to configure two pieces, and three screens that you
can access using the scroll bar on the right:
Choose piece 1 or 2
Move to
screen
1, 2 or 3
Area 1
Static meas-
urement,
i.e. direct
reading, or
dynamic
measure-
ment:
Max, min,
range, mean
average or
median.
Choice of calculation formula C(1) / C(2) / C(1) + C(2) / C(1) - C(2) / -C(1) / -C(2) / -C(1) + C(2) --> C = sensor
You can apply a coefficient to each sensor from the «settings» menu
