Operating your UW-Calipers
Switching On
Simply press the blue button to switch on your UW-Calipers. The green
light will light up briefly and the current caliper measurement will be
displayed.
Switching Off
The calipers automatically switch off if the outer jaw is not moved for
5 minutes.
Taking a measurement
Open the outer jaw of the UW-Caliper wider than the object being
measured. Then gently close the jaws on the object.
The UW-Calipers are calibrated for measuring on a closing jaw action. If
the jaw movement directly prior to a measurement is in the opening
direction, then the accuracy of the measurement will be reduced.
Logging a measurement
By simply pressing and releasing the blue button, the current caliper
measurement is logged, together with the current time and date, and the
water depth if the calipers incorporate the optional pressure sensor.
If your caliper has 2 buttons, whichever button is pressed is logged in the
data file. This enables measurement differentiation. For example, you can
differentiate between 2 species, or length and width measurements.
