rotation_control: (required) NX_CHAR

Qualitative statement how the revelation of the machine was configured. ...

Qualitative statement how the revelation of the machine was configured. If the rotation was controlled manually, e.g. by turning knobs choose manual and estimate the nominal average rotation. If the rotation was controlled via choosing from a fixed set of options offered by the machine choose fixed and specify the nominal rotation. If programmed use rotation_history (e.g. for automated/robot systems).

Qualitative statement how the (piston) force with which the sample ...

Qualitative statement how the (piston) force with which the sample was pressed into/against the abrasive medium was controlled if at all. If the force was controlled manually e.g. by turning knobs choose manual and estimate nominal average force. If the force was controlled via choosing from a fixed set of options offered by the machine choose fixed and specify the nominal force. If programmed use force_history (e.g. for automated/robot systems).

Any of these values: undefined | manual | fixed | programmed
