1. 38 Extensometer 1 Since this is a typical test requiring the use of an extensometer the MICRON is selected At the moment of selection you can see a table with the characteristic extensometer data and in this case also the selection of the control mode for knives opening is possible To exclude it act on Options function The negative load gradient of phase 3 with a parameter of 220 N s is selected among the three available modes negative load gradient from phase number Negative load tendency time This selection allows to identify the beginning of the reduction of area Considering that at the moment of the reduction of area the specimen elongation is concentrated in this portion only it is no longer necessary to measure it by means of the extensometer but it can be granted by the crosshead stroke The opening avoids to cause unusefull shocks at the rupture to the extensometer and avoids to make A measuring errors in case it occurs inside the measuring base In the format of the extensometer characteristic data it is also possible to set the measuring base that is adjustable and the value of software filter 39 Extensometer 2 No extensometers are foreseen 40 Saving The test program has been completely established and can be saved with a code MICRON and a little description Chapter 3 Operating pag 17
