The Power-  on/ Power-  off key  3-6 has to be pressed  and not released until `CAL` 
appears on the display. It lasts about 5 seconds from the last key operation until CAL 
will appear. 
The sensor 3-1 has to  be placed carefully onto the respective base material. Then 
the Zero key 3-3 has to be pressed, accompanied by a “beep” sound 
If now NF:H  (or  F:H)  is shown on the display, the  sensor has to be lifted for more 
than 5 cm. Then the Zero- key 3-3 has to be pressed and the instrument returns into 
measurement mode. Now factory settings have been finished.  
Comment: This procedure should always be done within 6 seconds. Otherwise it will 
be automatically cancelled and restoration is invalid. 

10  Notes  

 
The linearization of the instrument, which is given by the calibration, can be changed 
with the 

Ln- function.

 

It is strictly recommended not to perform any changes of the 

value of LN, 

as these 

changes can lead to deviant measurement results. 
 

Any adjustment or changed value of LN will seriously affect the accuracy. This 
value should only be adjusted by professional persons. 

 
Generally said: 
The bigger the value of Ln, the smaller the reading on the display for the same coat-
ing  thickness. Only a small change of the value of LN  causes a big change in the 
reading of the upper measurement range (at 500µm/20 mil). 
 
The 

value of LN

 has to be adjusted as follows: 

By pressing the Power-key: It lasts about 11 seconds from starting to press this key. 
This value can be changed by pressing the Plus- / Minus- key after `LN` appears on 
the display and the Power- key is released. This value is stored and afterwards the 
Zero- key has to be pressed.    
A: The reading value at low end has to be adjusted by pressing the Plus-/ or the Mi-
nus- key. 
B: The value of

 LN

 is enlarged if the reading value at low end (e.g. 51µm) is o.k., but 

the reading value at high end (e.g.432µm) is too big. 
In contrast with this, the value of LN has to be decreased, if the reading value at low 
end (e.g. 51µm) is o.k. but at high end (e.g. 432µm) it is too small. 
C: Procedures from A to B have to be repeated until the reading value for every cali-
bration foil is satisfactory in its accuracy.
