Measurement process with single probing
Measurement process with double probing
The two examples above clearly show that in certain cases, it is better to go for double
probing. The first solution requires 3 measurement blocks (and therefore two different
measurements and a calculation) to get a result, while the second one only requires one.
It is important not to mix single/double probing and ST1/ST2 concepts.
Here is a summary giving the overview:
ST1 mode
•
Single probing only
•
Probing in reference’s direction only
ST2 mode
•
Single or double probing possible
On motorised MICRO-HITE+M height gauges, the number of probe contacts for measuring
an element is intrinsically linked to the activated key on the control panel (for further details,
see this
) or the action run with the rotary control handle (for further details, see this
For example,
corresponds to a up single probing, while
allows you to start a double
probing measurement going up and down.
On the other hand, the manual MICRO-HITE height gauges behave differently. Their
ST2
mode allows to choose the number of probe contacts after which a measured element
will be calculated: one or two hits.
