11 Saving/viewing/deleting measured data
This gloss meter has two functions which can be seen on the display.
M
The meter is in measuring mode
R
The meter is in memory readout mode
In measuring mode, each reding will be saved. A measurement is made as soon as the measuring
icon
is displayed. A maximum of 254 values can be saved. When the memory is full, the
oldest memory item will be replaced.
To enter memory readout mode, press the RD key. The display will switch from
“M“ to “R“. Use
the arrow keys to choose the saved reading you want to view.
With the DEL key, you can delete a single reading.
To return to measuring mode, press the MEAS key. The display will switch from
“R“ to “M”.
To delete the complete memory at a time, press and hold the DEL key for three seconds in
measuring mode.
Note:
If you try to enter memory readout mode
when no measuring data are available, the display
will show
“Err1“. Memory readout mode can only be opened if data have been saved.
12 Recharging the battery
To make sure you can still use the meter, it should be recharged when the battery icon
appears in the display. To charge the meter, use the charger that comes with it.
If the rechargeable battery needs to be replaced, please contact PCE Instruments.
13 What to bear in mind before and during a measurement
Before a measurement, make sure that no external light enters the measuring chamber as this
can affect the readings. When there are considerable temperature fluctuations, make sure the
meter becomes acclimatised to the new environmental conditions. Then re-calibrate the meter
before making a measurement. If the meter is used for a long period of time such as more than
an hour, regular calibrations must be made. Make sure to store the calibration reference safely
everytime it is removed.
