Click the "Start" button on the load cell's MAX window to get the value of voltage measured by the load cell at the instant of button clicking.
-
This method of acquiring the voltage output by the load cell would be used when calibrating the load cell.

-
Click the "Start" button on the inclinometer's MAX window to get the value of voltage measured by the inclinometer.
-
Unlike the load cell's data, the inclinometer's MAX window gives continous voltage readings until the "Stop" button is pressed.
