Introduction

The multiple-run capability enhances the measurement system by allowing you to collect repeated sets of readings across different runs. This feature supports complex measurement scenarios and hysteresis calculation.


Overview

With the multiple-run capability, you can:

  • Configure between 1 and 10 runs (default is 1 run)
  • Assign custom names to each run (e.g., "Down", "Up", "Down")
  • View readings organized in separate sections by run
  • Choose from multiple results calculation methods

Setting Up Multiple Runs

Configuring Runs

  • In the measurement system, set the number of runs (1-10)
  • Assign custom names to each run as needed
  • Confirm your configuration

Understanding the Visual Layout

  • 1-4 runs: The system displays one column per run
  • 5+ runs: The system uses a three-column layout with wrapping

Cursor Navigation

Navigation Options

  • Standard Navigation: Cursor moves left-to-right, top-to-bottom within a column, then to the top of the next column
  • Reverse Navigation: After completing a column, cursor moves to the bottom of the next column and proceeds upward

Analyzing Results

Results Calculation Options

  • All Runs Combined - Treats all readings as a single dataset
  • Odd and Even Runs Combined - Creates two separate result sets from odd and even numbered runs
  • Individual Runs - Each run produces its own separate results
  • Last Run Only - Only displays results from the most recently used run

Working with Multiple Runs

The multiple-run capability organizes your readings by run, allowing you to collect data under different conditions while maintaining structure in your measurement workflow. Use the results calculation options to analyze your data according to your measurement requirements.


Practical Use Cases

  • Stability Checks: Capture initial measurements, and then re-measure after a set period to ensure that the instrument remains within specification.
  • Drift Analysis: Perform measurements in both directions (up and down) to detect any drift in accuracy.
  • Multi-Condition Testing: Use multiple runs to capture data under different conditions, such as varying temperature or pressure.
