1.Select the Zero menu option.
2.Press (+) to select the number of readings to be used to obtain
an average, typically 3 to 10 readings. The greater the variation
between readings, the more readings should be taken to obtain
an average.
3.Repeatedly measure the uncoated part. The Gage will wait 2
seconds between readings to allow the user to correctly position
the probe on the surface. After the last measurement the Gage
will calculate and display "0" which represents the average of all
the Zero readings taken.
(3) Simple Adjustment to a Known Thickness
It is sometimes desirable to adjust the Gage to a known thickness,
such as a shim, rather than adjusting it to zero.
Measure the object. If the expected reading is not obtained (within
tolerance), lift the probe from the surface and adjust the displayed
reading down (-) or up (+) to the expected thickness. Hold the
button down to increase the rate of adjustment.
(4) Average Adjustment to a Known Thickness
On rough or curved surfaces a preferred method is to take several
readings on the known thickness and average the result.
1.Select 1 Pt Adjust from the Cal Settings menu.
2.Press (+) to select the number of readings to be used to obtain
an average, typically 3 to 10 readings. The greater the variation
between readings, the more readings should be taken to obtain
an average.
3.Repeatedly measure the known thickness reference. The Gage
will wait 2 seconds between readings to allow the user to
correctly position the probe on the surface. After the last
measurement the Gage will calculate and display the reading
which represents the average of all the measurements taken. If
the expected reading is not obtained (within tolerance) lift the
probe from the surface and adjust the reading down (-) or up (+)
to the expected thickness and press .
