Note: Since this is the 1

the Probe Zero Cal Bars, the cursor should be located on a cal standard in
column B. It’s also important to note that the L-REF stored in column A,
also contains all the MINI-MAX settings when the L-REF was initially
measured. These settings will automatically be copied to all the
columns B-ZZ, for each individual bolt. Therefore, no adjustments to
the MINI-MAX should be necessary.

Spec”, proceed to the next step.
11) Assuming the elongation is “Out of Spec”, Press the MEAS key once to
activate the measure menu items. Press the MEAS key multiple times
to move right and the ESC key multiple times to move left, until the
TEMP cell is highlighted.
