6-point calibration
This calibration is available in “P” measurement mode and is
required to be able to perform measurements on metals different
from supplied base metal plates.
In the new device, it’s equivalent to factory calibration.
For this type of calibration, base metal plate and 5 calibration
plates with known coating thickness are needed.
F-0 (Point 0) - Metal base with no coating.
F-1 (Point 1) - 80-300 μm (3-12 mil) calibration plate.
F-2 (Point 2) - 400-800 μm (15-31 mil) calibration plate.
F-3 (Point 3) - 900-1800 μm (35-70 mil) calibration plate.
F-4 (Point 4) - 1900-2500 μm (75-98 mil) calibration plate.
F-5 (Point 5) - 2600-3750 μm (102-147 mil) calibration plate.
Entering into calibration state
Switch off the device. Press and hold “MODE” for ferrous metal
calibration state or “UNIT” for non-ferrous metal calibration state.
The screen will display either “FCAL” or “ACAL” (depends on type
of metal) once in calibration state.
Wait until the screen displays “0”. You may begin the calibration
process now.
