COMPARE TOOL
The Compare tool is a quick method for comparing standard and sample measurements without
storing the data. After entering the mode, the first step is to set the standard. Each measurement
thereafter is compared to it. The standard can be remeasured whenever desired.
Measurement screen icons for the Compare tool appear orange in color.
NOTE
: This section covers the procedure for performing Averaging and Pass/Fail measurements
using the Compare tool. For additional information on the navigation and measurement screen
option icons, refer to the Measurement Tool Options section earlier in this manual.
