Mix Calibration
As noted earlier, the PaveTracker Plus can be calibrated for a
specific mix using the
Mix Calibration
function. To use this
function, the operator takes gauge measurements at three to
ten locations across the material. The gauge compares these
values to values obtained by core analysis or another method
to determine a
slope
and
intercept
for that particular material.
The gauge can store up to four mix calibrations.
NOTE
In order for the gauge to calculate both a slope and an
intercept for the test material, measurements must be
performed at a minimum of three locations. Also, the
difference between the minimum and maximum reading
must be at least 3 pcf. For best results, Troxler
recommends taking measurements at seven to ten
locations.
To access the
Mix Calibration
function, press

existing mix calibration, create a new calibration, disable an
active calibration, or view a calibration.
