Brookfield Engineering Labs., Inc.Page 15Manual No. M03-165-F0612Note: TheDV-II+Prowill remember the Spindle Entry Code which was in usewhen the power was turned off.Pressing the SELECT SPINDLE key will temporarily display the current selected spindle codein place of temperature and cause the character S to begin to blink.
It will blink for about threeseconds. If the UP or DOWN ARROW keys are pressed (while S is blinking), the two characterspindle value to the right of the S character will begin to change (in either an increasing ordecreasing direction depending upon which ARROW key is pressed) for each press of the key.If the ARROW key is pressed and held, the display will scroll through the spindle codes for aslong as the ARROW key is depressed.
Virtual Key Codes. The following table shows the symbolic constant names, decimal values (in brackets), and mouse or keyboard equivalents for the virtual-key codes used by the system.
When it reaches the last item in the list (either at the toporbottomofthelist)thespindlecodedisplayedwill“roll-over”toeitherthefirstorlastspindlecode and the scroll action will continue.When the desired spindle code is displayed, release the ARROW key to halt further scrolling.Press the SELECT SPINDLE key once again. This will cause the S character to cease blinkingand the new spindle code will be accepted for use in viscometer calculations. After 3 secondsthe current spindle code will be replaced by the temperature display.Note: YouhaveapproximatelythreesecondsinwhichtopresstheSELECTSPINDLE key before the blinking stops.
If you fail to press the SELECTSPINDLE key before the blinking stops you will have to repeat the abovesteps and re-select the desired spindle.The DV-II+Pro will begin to calculate using the new spindle parameters as soon as theSELECTSPINDLEkey is pressed the second time.Note: The number 99 spindle is for use with special spindles when usingBrookfield’sRheocalccomputerprogram. RefertotheRheocalcoperatormanual for further information on using “99” spindles.TheDV-II+PromayalsobeprogrammedatBrookfieldEngineeringfor“special”userspindles.These “special” spindles will appear on the spindle scroll list starting with designation “AA”andcontinuingthrough“AZ”.

These speeds correspond to the standardLVT, RVT, HAT and HBT dial models (18 possible speeds altogether) plus 36 additional speeds.The DV-II+Pro comes with the Sequential Speed Set already selected (see Appendix G). Thespeed set will start at speed 0.0. It will then scroll up through the LV speeds, pass through speed0.0 again, and then scroll up through the RV speeds, pass through speed 0.0 again and then repeatthe above sequence.TheDV-II+ProcanalsobeconfiguredbytheoperatortointerleavetheLVandRVspeeds. SeeSection IV.2.3 on Setup for a description of how to install the Interleave Speed Set.A complete list of speed sets and custom speeds is included in Appendix G.
The DV-II+Pro can beprogrammed to select up to 19 of the 54 speeds for use at any one time. Speed 0.0 is automaticallyincluded as one of the nineteen (19) speeds.
