D. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Wagner FDV Digital Force Gage is an economical full function
electronic force gage. Before using the FDV, take time to become
acquainted with its many features described in this manual.
1. The FDV is equipped with a 9V Lithium battery, which provides up to
300 hours of operation. The long battery life is possible because of
the power conservation features of the advanced circuit design and
the high storage capacity of the Lithium battery. The automatic shut-
off feature further extends battery life by allowing pre-set shut-off
after 1, 5, 10, 20 or 30 minute intervals. (See Section F.4.3) When
the “LO BAT” indicator appears on the LCD, a limited amount of
power is still available from the battery.
The Lithium battery is recommended but may be replaced by any of
the following 9V batteries: alkaline, carbon zinc, or NiCad recharge-
able, with a reduction in operating time.
2. If the FDV is to be used in a stationary application, the battery
eliminator (FDV/BE) may be preferred over a battery. To use the
battery eliminator, connect the contact strap to the FDV battery strap
and replace the battery cover after connection. A small slot is pro-
vided allowing the battery eliminator cord to pass through.
3. The FDV features a reversible Force Cell Module, allowing the gage
to be used on a test stand with the shaft down or hand-held with the
shaft up. To change the orientation, remove the four screws in the
rear housing and carefully pull the front and rear halves apart. After
rotating the halves 180°, carefully align the top and bottom housings
and the center connectors, press the two halves together, and
replace the screws.
4. The FDV features a programmable microprocessor with an internal
sampling rate of up to 100 times per second. This sampling rate
enables the gage to capture important peaks during testing. Varying
degrees of filtering are also available to reduce the effects of elec-
tronic or mechanical background “noise” present in the test environ-
ment (See Section F. 4.4).
