Operating the TT01 involves placing the sample, performing the torque test, and interpreting the results from the digital display.

3.1. Performing a Torque Test

1. Place the bottle securely between the adjustable posts.
2. Ensure the display is zeroed before starting a new test. Press the 'ZERO' button if needed.
3. Twist the cap until it loosens. The display will show the peak torque value achieved during the loosening process.

3.2. የማሳያ አመልካቾች

The TT01 features a clear digital display with various indicators:

• Primary Reading: Configurable to show live or peak torque values.
• የመለኪያ ክፍሎች፡- Selectable units include lbFin, ozFin, lbFft, Ncm, or Nm.
• Set Points: Programmable upper and lower set points define the acceptable tolerance range.
• Pass/Fail Indicators: Visual cues on the display indicate whether the reading is within range, too high, or too low.
• ከፍተኛ ማወቂያ፡ Features 1st/2nd peak torque detection, useful for measuring slip and breakaway torques in tamper-evident closures.
