Mark-10 AFCOMP-H Complete Options Package for ESM303H Test Stand

Includes all functions listed below, plus 09-1252 interface cable and 09-1158 USB cable. Requires a Model M7i or M5i indicator.

• FollowMe (AF008) - Crosshead movement responds to manually pushing or pulling on the load cell. Increasing force produces greater speeds. Ideal for setups and quick positioning.
• Travel indication (AF009) - Travel is indicated on the control unit display, with output via USB. An internal scale utilizing Renishaw technology produces significantly higher accuracy than with conventional rotary encoder-based designs. Backlash and nonlinearity are virtually eliminated.
• Computer control (AF010) - The ESM303H may be fully controlled by a PC through a program written in any language supporting ASCII communications. Also responds to the legacy Chatillon TCD command set and legacy Nexygen TCD software (not available from Mark-10). This option is not required for MESUR™gauge Plus software.
• Programmable travel limits (AF011) - The stand stops at or cycles between programmable right and left travel distances.
• Overload protection (AF012) - Protects a load cell against overload. Program the desired percentage of full scale of the load cell. Adjustable analog voltage setting allows the stand to interface with virtually any instrument with analog output.
• Auto return (AF013) - The crosshead moves to a limit switch, force set point, travel position, or break, then stops and reverses direction at full speed to the opposite limit.
• Cycling/dwell time (AF014) - Same as auto return, but with the ability to program up to 100,000 cycles. Programmable dwell time for right and left limits (set independently) can be set up for up to 10,000 seconds.
• Independent right and left speeds (AF016) - Configurable speeds for right and left directions.
• Low speed extension (AF017) - Extends the standard speed range down to 0.02 in/min (0.5 mm/min).
• High speed extension (AF018) - Extends the standard speed range up to 45 in/min (1,100 mm/min).
• Break detection (AF019) - Crosshead stops at a sudden drop in force. Programmable percentage of peak force.
• Loadholding (AF020) - Dynamically adjusts the crosshead position to maintain a programmed load for an indefinite or specified period of time.
• Preload/sample touch (AF021) - Stops the crosshead and/or zeroes the travel display at an initial preload - useful in tensile, compression, spring, elongation, and other applications. Preload is programmable as a percentage of force gauge/load cell full scale. Three modes: (1) stop, (2) stop and zero, and (3) zero without stopping.
• Profiles (AF022) - Save and recall sets of test parameters, such as speeds, travel limits, preloads, etc. Up to 50 profiles may be stored.
