F505H COLUMN END CAP ASSEMBLY
The end cap is shipped in a separate box within the main box for the Model F505H test frame. Line it up with the right end of the column, then install with the four included screws, as shown at left.
Set up
Place the test frame on a clean, flat and level work area free from vibration. Ensure that the rear of the column is easily accessible to connect the power cord and connection cables. To prevent tipping, especially if a column extension is installed, it is suggested to mount the test frame to a work bench via screws fastened into the underside of the base. Connect the power cord to an outlet.
INSTALLING A FORCE SENSOR
Series FS05 force sensors mount directly to the crosshead. Match the gold-
plated pads on the top surface of the load cell block with the pins in the
underside of the crosshead, as shown at left.
Tighten the screw that joins the crosshead to the force sensor. Optionally
cover the screw head with the included black plastic cap.

Test frame part numbers ending in “-IMT”, for example Model F305-IMT, include
a Windows tablet with attached ball mount and mounting bracket, packaged
separately. The mounting arm is pre-installed into the front right slot in the
test frame column via two screws.
Loosen the knob sufficiently to slide the ball, mounted to the rear of the
tablet, into the arm. Orient the tablet horizontally, with the USB-C port
positioned on the left side. Adjust the viewing angle as desired, then tighten
the knob.
Connect the included USB cable between the USB-C port and the USB-B port in
the rear of column, and connect the AC adapter connector.
Plug in the AC adapter and press the Power button, in the lower right corner
of the tablet. The tablet will boot up directly into the IntelliMESUR
application. If not, select the IntelliMESUR icon in the Windows home screen.
