This parameter affects all measurement modes (in addition to Cross-Line) when-
ever Artificial Intelligence Correction is selected

Meauring Range
Select between
Standard, Large
or
Auto
ranges (see Figure 3).
The Standard range setting is the default setting and the most accurate.
Auto range setting automatically switches between Standard and Large
range; it is only available when in the Locating Mode. Spot range set-
ting should be selected for measurements of small areas, in corners
and where the distance between reinforcing bars is small. The Large
range setting should be selected when the concrete cover is deeper, to
provide more accurate results.
Rebar Diameter Scan X / Rebar Diameter Scan Y
Select the Rebar Diameter (6 to 40 mm / #2 to #12, see “10.1 Appendix A1:
Rebar Diameters”), either determined from the drawing or as measured.
Tap on the info button on top of the Settings page to view a graphical
overview of the above mentioned parameters.
Artificial Intelligence / Neighboring Rebar Correction
It compensates the influence of 1
st
and 2
nd
layer neighbor rebars (AI) or 1
st
layer neighbor rebars only (NRC) on cover measurement of 1st layer rebars.
If both a
1
and a
2
spacings are entered,
Φ
1
≤
Φ
2
and Standard Range is set,
then the Artificial Intelligence is automatically applied.
If only a
1
spacing is entered or
Φ
1
>
Φ
2
or Large/Spot Range is set, then the
Neighboring Rebar Correction (only taking into account 1
st
layer) is automati-
cally applied.
The user can enter the spacing value manually or choose the Auto function,
which redirects to a Single-Line scan where the spacing is automatically
measured and averaged.
The rebar size measurement is anyway only corrected with NRC.

view of the above mentioned parameters.
Cover Calibration
This correction is used for calibrating the cover measured by the instru-
ment (Measured Cover) to the actual value directly measured on a open
location (Reference Cover). The corresponding Rebar Diameter Setting is
also to be specified.
This correction can be used regardless of rebar geometry and Measuring

Cover and Distance.
Minimum Cover
A Minimum Cover value from 10 to 142 mm / 0.40 to 5.56 inch can be set
in 1 mm / 0.04 inch steps (see “10.3 Appendix A3: Minimum / Maximum
Cover”). In the Single-Line, Multi-Line and Cross-Line Mode/View rebars
with less than minimum cover will be shown in red color. In the Single-
Line View and Statistical View a horizontal, respectively vertical dotted
line in red indicates the Minimum Cover value set.
Maximum Cover
A Maximum Cover value from 20 to 190 mm / 0.80 to 7.48 inch can be set
in steps of 1 mm / 0.04 inch (see “10.3 Appendix A3: Minimum / Maximum
Cover”). In the Single-Line, Multi-Line and Cross-Line Mode/View rebars
with cover exceeding the Maximum cover will be shown in grey color.
NOTE! The Maximum Cover must be at least 10 mm / 0.40
inch higher than the Minimum Cover. If not, the instrument
will correct it automatically.
