confirm the choice of a menu item, e.g.
Statistics 2/4
and then reach the corresponding
submenu, e.g.
Print out of statistics 1/6
close a setting action, e.g.

Gauge types and their applications
Depending on the delivery, you either have the standard instrument Pocket-Surfix
®
or the Pocket-Surfix
®
basic with
limited functionality.
The Pocket-Surfix
®
gauge has all the functions described in this manual. The Pocket-Surfix
®
basic gauge has a limited
number of functions; all statistics, limits, the zero offset and the backlight are missing.
Pocket-Surfix
®
is a coating thickness gauge for non-destructive coating thickness measurement according to the
magnetic induction principle and the eddy current principle.
The magnetic induction principle is used for all non-magnetic coatings, such as varnish, paint, enamel,
chromium, copper, zinc... coatings on steel and iron (F types)
The eddy current principle is used for all electrically insulating coatings, such as varnish, paint and anodising
coatings on non-ferrous metals, even on austenitic stainless steels (N types).
FN types are dual gauges for measurements on steel and non-ferrous metal (F = Ferrous und N = Non-Ferrous).
