3.3 TO MEASURE A LARGE SURFACE
The Elcometer 406L has a special feature which allows large surfaces to be checked quickly - ‘Move-and-
Read’.
1.
While taking measurements, press and hold the READ/SELECT key.
The gauge will start to take a measurement.
2.
Continue to hold the READ/SELECT key and slide the gauge carefully to the next area to be
measured.
The display updates in real time to show the measurement value under the aperture.
3.
When the READ/SELECT key is released the last reading will be displayed. This will be the value
stored in the memory.
Note: Sliding the gauge across a product may cause damage to the surface unless care is taken.
Note: A 30 second ‘Move-and-read’ mode can be selected using the Novo-Soft software included with your
gauge - see “Changing settings using Novo-Soft™” on page 21.
