12. The Sonic

1200S/HR is now calibrated for steel from 0.100 inch to 0.500 inch This

method provides an accurate test over this range.

Instrument Calibration - 1.0 to 10.0 Inches of Steel

Use the same procedure as the previous 0.100 to 0.500 inch steel test, but adjust the controls
using 1 to 10 inch steel step blocks as the thin and thick steps. After calibrating at 1.0 inch and
10.0 inches, check at 5.0 inches for accuracy.

To select and change the following parameters, press the

menu soft key

below the selected

menu box, then rotate the SmartKnob™ or press the INC/DEC arrow keys to change the value.
