2.2.1.3 CROSSHEAD SPEEDOMETER The crosshead speedometer is used to control crosshead speed when in manual control. The speedometer has two speed sets: Normal and Slow. When in Normal speed, the pointer points to the right and has a green dot. Normal speed means the crosshead will obey the Motion setting. Pressing the jog key will cause the crosshead to ramp up to the maximum speed set in the Motion setting. When in Slow speed, the pointer points to the left and has a green dot. Slow speed means that when you press the jog key, the crosshead will only move at the slow speed rate for the FMM digital tester frame. This speed rate is 0.002 in/min (0.05mm/min). NOTE The Slow speed rate should be used with setting up the fixtures for your test. It is especially recommended whenever you are manually positioning the crosshead in the compression direction. 2.2.1.4 TEST FRAME MODE The FMM Test Frame only operates in Normal mode as depicted by the mode symbol.
