4.3.1.3 HOLD DURATION Use the Hold Duration when you are performing a constant load hold test for creep and relaxation testing. You may specify a duration of up to 99,999 seconds. When a Hold Duration is specified, the Load Limit test will finish once this duration has finished. The default value for the Hold Duration option is null. This means there is no hold at the limit. NOTE Long duration tests require a smaller sampling rate. The maximum number of data points that can be collected and saved is 100,000. Therefore, use a sampling rate of 1Hz for tests with a duration of 99,999 seconds. 4.3.1.4 TEST SPEED TheSpeedvalue is your test speed.This is the velocity youwant your crosshead to travel at from when you start your test to your Target Load setpoint. Speed units may be either in/min (inch per minute) or mm/min (millimeter per minute). You may specify the units of measure for speed using the Pre Test options. Your L1 System has a speed range from 0.001 to 40.0 inch per minute (0.02 to 1016 mm per minute). 4.3.1.5 EXCEPTIONS The optional exception rules for the Load Limit test are: • Distance • Break % and Minimum Break DISTANCE EXCEPTION Enter a Distance value. If the measured distance equals this value, and the load limit has not been achieved, the test will stop. BREAK EXCEPTION Enter the % Drop value and Minimum Break value to define a break event. Requires entering a Minimum Break also. If a break condition occurs, before the load limit is measured, the test will stop.

4.3.1.6 DATA STAGE The Data stage displays the default results for the test template type. And you may select optional results from a list, also based on the test template type.

Default and primary coefficients are automatically selected.

Shown: L1 LOAD LIMIT Test Data setup

The table shows the test method type and its associated primary and secondary results. The primary results are the default results always displayed. The secondary results are results that may be selected using the +Add Coefficient feature.
