Calibration
Put some contact paste on the calibration standard and push the calibration button. The display will show
“CAL” now. Now press the sensor on the calibration standard. If the sensor is applied correctly you will
see “
((•))
” on the display. After that the display will show “CAL” and “5 mm”. If the displayed value is
stable press the calibration button again in order to accept the value and to return to the measuring mode.
You now finished the calibration and the measured value is stored.

Measurement
Push the power button to switch on the device and choose your needed unit (mm / inch). Make sure that
the sensor is correctly connected to the device. If that is the case, the device will show “
((•))
”
.
Give a bit
of contact paste on the upper side and press the sensor on the material you want to measure. The
measured data will now appear on the display. It is shown as long as a new measurement is made or
until the device is switched off.

Measurement with adjusted velocity speed
Push the VEL button and the device will show you the last chosen velocity speed. By pushing the plus
and minus buttons you will be able to adjust these. By pressing the button once, the instrument will
change the value by 10 m/s. If a button is pressed for more than four seconds the value will be changed
by 100 m/s.
Put some contact paste on the material you want to measure and press the sensor on it. The measured
data will be displayed.
In case you should not know what material is to be measured take a caliper, measure the thickness on
one side and note the thickness. Also note the velocity speed that is adjusted. Now take the thickness
gauge and change the velocity speed as long as the measured value is the same value that you wrote
down. Now write down the velocity speed for that material. If you are willing to perform additional
measurements you will have to change the velocity speed before those measurements.

Changing the batteries
If the voltage is to low, the thickness gauge will show a battery sign on the display. To change the battery
open the battery lid, and replace the old batteries.
