Calculate new balance solution to use only available locations and weights

Overview

The Adjust Radius option lets you enter a known (desired) weight and radius, and either an available radius or available weight. The program then calculates the new weight for the available radius or the new radius for the available weight. Adjust Radius is useful when you do not have the exact weight specified by the balance correction, or you cannot attach the weight at the radius specified by the correction.

Note: This is available only in Advanced Balance mode.

Procedure

  1. From the Balance main menu, press ALT > F6 Calculator Mode > F9 Adjust Radius.
  2. Set the following options as necessary.
    Option Description
    F2 View Balance Corr. View the last balance correction. This option displays only if the analyzer calculated a balance correction and you accessed Adjust Radius from the Trim Run Applied Weight menu.
    F3 Enter Known Weight Enter the desired weight between 0.00 and 10,000, typically the calculated correction weight, or import it from the Balance Correction screen. The default is 0. You cannot import discrete positions. This field is unitless. If you access Adjust Radius from the Trim Run Applied Weight screen, the units are as defined for the job.
    F4 Enter Known Radius Enter the desired radius between 0.00 and 650.00 inches or 0.00 and 1651 cm, or import it from the Balance Correction screen. The default is 0. You cannot import discrete positions.
    F9 Enter Available Weight Enter an available weight between 0.00 and 10,000. This field is unitless. If you access Adjust Radius from theTrim Run Applied Weight screen, the units are as defined for the job. An entry is not required if you enter an available radius. The default is Unknown.
    F10 Enter Available Radius Enter an available radius between 0.00 and 650.00 inches or 0.00 and 1651 cm. An entry is not required if you enter an available weight. The default is Unknown.
  3. Press F1 Calculate Solution or Enter.
    The Circumference Conv. Solution screen displays the solution as a continuous weight position. The Enter key is inactive on this screen.
  4. Press F7 Adjust Radius Calc. to exit and return to the calculation screen.
