After completing a measurement, the
measurement results are displayed.
Performing the measurement requires
some practice. The following error
messages are especially likely to
occur during the first trials.
A warning signal is heard and the light
diode flashes at a rapid rate. At the
same time, a message appears in the
display indicating the type of error:
Speed
You have moved the measurement unit
too quickly or unevenly over the
sample. Confirm this information by
pressing the operate button and
repeat the measurement.
Scan length
The required scan length has not been
reached completely.
Repeat the measurement, moving the
device until a short audio confirmation
is heard.
Small areas can be measured by
moving the instrument back and forth.
Acceleration
The instrument was accelerated too
fast across the specimen or the scan
direction was changed too fast.
Confirm the message by pressing
“operate” and repeat the
measurement.
