Taking readings
The start screen appears for about 3 seconds showing company
logo, gauge version and the type of connected sensor.
You will be requested to hold the sensor into the air for taking a
reference signal. Please check the transparent measuring surface of
the sensor tip. Make sure it is clean and free of dust, dirt, grease or
couplant residuals. If necessary, use a moist soft cloth for cleaning.
Lift the sensor and hold it in the air. Press OK to proceed on
acquisition of the reference signal.
Once the signal has been taken, the gauge will switch automatically
to measuring mode.
The gauge is ready for measurement and the measuring screen
appears. At this point, no reading is available.
The "
Direct mode“ (see section 6.3.1) along with the parameter set "Demo“ are preset. The
current setting is always shown in the status line. In this setting you can take readings at a
medium accuracy. It is not necessary to make further settings prior to measurement.
Take the test foil from the case. Open the bottle with couplant by raising the measure pourer.
Apply a small quantity of couplant on one side of the centre of foil.
Hold the grey spring-loaded sleeve of the sensor with one hand and place the sensor vertically
onto the measuring spot where you have applied the couplant. Push the sensor sleeve fully
down to the stop.
Measurement will launch automatically. This will take around one second.
