8.6.5 Enable Cell Calibrations When the Enable Cell Calibrations option is YES, the system is in calibration mode and should not be used for testing. Enable Cell Calibrations must be set to NO when the system is being used for testing. WARNING Calibration should be performed by personnel experienced in calibrating a Starrett load cell sensor and test frame. Improper calibration will result in erroneous measurements and may cause permanent damage to the load cell sensor and test frame. 8.7 EXTENSOMETER CORRECTIONS Setting L3 Systems may be used with two extensometers for measuring strain. L3 systems are compatible with Reliant Technologies and Epsilon Technologies extensometers. The Extensometer Corrections setting is used for calibrating an extensometer that is connected to your testing frame. The procedures for calibrating the extensometer may be obtained through the extensometer manufacturer or through your Starrett representative.
8.8 Motion Setting The Motion setting is used to establish the highest test speed/velocity that the test system crosshead may travel. This value limits the crosshead velocity for test step setup and for the maximum speed velocity that is controlled by the jog switch. The default Motion setting is factory set at the maximum allowed speed for that Starrett test frame. Adjusting the Motion setting downward reduces the maximum allowed crosshead speed to this value.

8.9 Loads Setting The Load Setting is used to specify options and characteristics concerning load measurement.
