1.0 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Check-Line CAP-T Torque Tester. We are confident
that you will get many years of service from this product.
The CAP-T can be used to test a number of different closure shapes and sizes,
along with other types of samples. To maintain normal functioning of the tester,
avoid repetitive overloads and shock loads.
Two models are available. The CAP-T-XX basic model and the CAP-T-XXRS
which includes an RS-232 and Digimatic output for connection to a PC or printer.
Before continuing, carefully unpack the CAP-T and check for any damage.
Inspect the contents to ensure that you have received a tester complete
with all accessories.
1.1 Included items
• CAP-T Torque Tester
• User’s guide (this booklet)
• 4 Sample gripping posts
• AC Adapter
1.2 Optional Items
• Sample Gripping Jaws:
See photo page 3. These jaws are
for use with square or or other
shaped containers, in addition to
round samples. The jaws are
reversible; one side has a V-groove,
while the other side is flat. These jaws
can be mounted to the inside or outside
of the sliders. Part # CAP-T-JAWS
• CAP-T-XX RS Version:
This model allows torque data to be transferred
to a PC, printer, or other device for data analysis.
The package consists of a serial connector and
data button to manually output data. For more
automated data collection, common software
programs such as WinWedge (available from
Electromatic) can be configured to automatically
request data from the CAP-T.

11.0 OUTPUTS
Outputs are available as part of the CTRS communication option. If installed, it
offers RS-232 and Mitutoyo BCD outputs on the 9-pin male connector. Please
refer to the pin diagram below for proper connection.
RS-232
The data transmission can be initiated by pressing the DATA button or by an
external device by sending ASCII "?" to the gauge. The gauge will respond by
sending the current reading in either full or numeric format, depending on the
configuration setting (see Section 3). Polarity sign indicates CW (+) or CCW (-)
torque. The transmitted string has the following format:
[POLARITY (SPACE OR -)][DATA][SPACE][UNITS (IF ENABLED)][CRLF]
Mitutoyo BCD
This output is useful for connection to data collectors, printers, multiplexers or
any other device capable of accepting Mitutoyo BCD data. The transmission is
initiated by the DATA button (see Section 3 about settings) or by the receiving
device.
1 RS-232 receive Input

3 Mitutoyo request Input
4 Mitutoyo clock Output
5 Signal ground
6 No connection
7 No connection
