ABS

REL
function:
Enables passing from an absolute to relative value; after pressing , the
displayed value is temporarily set to zero to measure a relative motion of the transducer. On the
display the
REL
icon indicates that the current display is relative to the reference point that has just
been created. Pressing again causes the absolute value to be displayed and the
ABS
icon will
appear.
mm/inch conversion:
Pressing
converts the measurement from millimeters to inches and
back. When in inch mode, the
INCH
icon will appear and the displayed value will have an additional
decimal place. When the parameter

=4 the mm/inch conversion is not available.
Offset:
This parameter is added to or subtracted from the displayed value to correct it in case, for
example, of a tool change or to compensate tool wear. After setting a positive offset value, the
displayed value will be the measured value plus the offset value. After setting a negative offset
value, the displayed value will be the measured value minus the offset value.

Adjustment of displayed value
After the installation of instrument on the machine and setting of all parameters, in order to
visualize on the display the correct value it is necessary to carry out the reset or preset.
Position the shaft in a point in which the correct measure that has to be visualized is known exactly
(for example the stroke end point) or measure the position in that point of the shaft. Program

with value 3 in the first digit on the right and exit programming.
Now press

and set the
correct value to display, then confirm with
ENTER

.
The display will now show the desired
value. If the required value is zero, instead of the preset function it is possible to use the reset
function by setting 1 in the first digit on the right in the
W$6W,
W$6W,

parameter so that pressing
ENTER
/
RESET
will bring the displayed value to zero.
Now that the instrument is adjusted, it is necessary to insert the desired

W$6W,
W$6W,

parameter to avoid
accidental reset/preset of the displayed value.
Battery replacement
The instrument is supplied with a ½AA 3,6V lithium battery, which assures a typical functioning of
approximately 4 years.
When the battery runs down, an icon appears on the display.
The instrument is protected against inversion of polarity and wrong insertion, and in this case will
not switch on.
Removing the battery from the instrument switches it off after a few seconds: at this point do not
move the shaft to avoid losing the correct displayed value. As soon as the battery is fitted, the
instrument switches on with the same value on the display which was present at the moment when
it was switched off. If the shaft has not be moved, the displayed value will be correct. In case the
shaft moved when the instrument was off, to re-establish the correct measure it is necessary to
repeat the adjustment process.
