High-Accuracy Calibration
To achieve high-accuracy readings, it is advisable to log calibration values
(both zero values and calibration foil values) several times in succession.
In this way, the gauge will automatically establish a mean calibration
value. For more details see Calibration Tips. The high-accuracy calibration
is an obvious advantage when calibrating on uneven, e.g. shot-blasted,
surfaces.
Cleaning the Measuring Point
Before calibration the probe tip must be free from grease, oil, scraps of
metal, etc. The slightest impurity will affect measurement and distort read-
ings.
Calibration Tips
Basic Calibration should only be used for measurements on even sur-
faces, i.e. on steel components made of conventional steel (mild steel) or
on aluminum components. First select “Calibration Mode” via the Menu
(Menu->Calibration->Enable). The LCD screen will display “Cal n (or 1 - 2)
Zero n (or y)”. The “n” means “Not any point calibration and Zero calibra-
tion”, and “y” means “There is Zero calibration”. “Cal 1 - 2” means “There
is One or Two point Calibration”. After finishing all Calibrating, we advise
that you disable calibration via the Menu.
Preparing for Calibration
1) Switch the meter on, being sure the meter is at least 10cm (4”)
away from any metals.
2) Substrate sample and necessary foils (calibration standard).
3) Set the Measuring Mode to Continuous or Single via the Menu.
Zero-point Calibration
1) Vertically place the probe on an uncoated sample (zero coating
thickness).
