DRAMINSKI GRAIN MASTER Manual De Uso página 31

The Draminski GMS grain moisture meter stores
moisture curves for each species, determined on
the basis of results for normalised samples (bulk
density of grain and mass of 1000 seeds), which
guarantees accurate and repeatable results. How-
ever, it may happen that crop of a given year varies
from normalised seeds (due to various factors) and
departures may occur in moisture indications.
Such factors include:
1. seed formation and maturity,
2. specific features of a given grain,
3. degree of contamination and screenings,
4. degree of damage caused by pests and fungi.
NOTE!
Please remember, results of measurements should
be compared only with the laboratory drying-and-
weighing test, not with results of other moisture
meters, as they may be misleading.
30 SECTION 9 | MODIFICATION OF MOISTURE INDICATIONS
The Draminski GMS grain moisture meter enables
the user to modify (adjust) measurement indica-
tions.
In any case of modification, each grain type is
treated individually. When a modification is made,
an asterisk (*) will be displayed next to the grain
name, while during the measurement, a note will
be displayed in the upper right corner of the screen,
showing the value of adjustment of indication for a
given grain (the result will automatically reflect the
modification):
before

It is recommended to restore factory settings in
each following year and make another adjust-
ment of indications (modification) if required.
after
GMS mod: -0.3 %
