•

When operating in a legal for trade application, the VMS5200-x MID also includes a
separate LFT display

•

To control the display, gently touch the respective button (touchscreen).

NOTE!

Only touch the display with your fingers. Do not apply pressure, and do not use

pointed objects.

•

Is used to display the measurement results during operation.

•

Allows the display of status information, firmware versions and the logbook (version
history) for market surveillance.

NOTE!

Measurement and system data cannot be edited.

Fig. 62: LFT display - display of the measurement results

•

Visualizes the results of the last measurement.

•

The length, width, and height are output with scale values in mm.

•

The status provides additional information about the measurement result. Valid
measurement results have the status

0 0 0 0

. Other numerical sequences indicate

the reason why a measurement was invalid.
