Alinement of planimeter with lens tracing assembly. Alinement of the
1.
planimeter provides information needed to make area and volume measurements. Using
the testing procedure provides values needed to check alinement with factory
determined values and provides a constant in determining additional measurements and
calculations. Test measurement is made with the test rule. Measurement with the
test rule traces a circle with a two inch radius. The area of that circle has a
factory determined area AT , found on the Calibration Records Sheet provided with
the equipment.
