Bluetooth Function Indicator: The symbol indicates the base unit
and wireless probe are communicating properly.
Results Indicator: When the probe is in the proper position and good
samples are being taken, a solid DOT blinks on the probe display, the
base unit LED blinks green and emits a high beep. When samples are
inconclusive, an "X" blinks on the probe display, the base unit LED
blinks red and emits a low beep.
Distance Paddle: Graphically represents the distance to the target. It
rises and falls to indicate distance from the probe tip to the surface of
the powder.
Distance Target Bar: The optimum distance for measurement is 18
mm (3/4 inch) between the tip of the probe and the surface of the
applied powder. During measurement, keep the Distance Paddle close
to the Distance Target Bar.
Amplitude Indicator: Strength of the ultrasonic echo. A high position
indicates good probe orientation relative to perpendicular. The bar will
generally reach higher positions when measuring thin powder and when
the probe is at a 90-degree angle to the powder surface.
Maximum Amplitude Dot: Marks the highest position the Amplitude
Indicator reached during the current measurement attempt.
Predicted Cured Thickness Result: When a valid measurement is
calculated, the base unit BEEPS twice, the LED blinks green, and the
predicted cured measurement result is displayed on both the probe and
base unit. Continuing to hold the probe button will result in additional
samples being taken.
There are 4 types of displayed measurement results:
43 — Predicted thickness result.
0 — The collected samples have resulted in a good reading, but the
resultant predicted cured thickness is less than the minimum range.
++ — The collected samples have resulted in a good reading, but the
resultant predicted cured thickness is greater than the maximum range.
- - — An indeterminate or invalid reading.
