Setting Gate Alarms
The alarm settings allow you to indicate the material thickness readings above which and below which (MAX and MIN) the instrument will
signal alarms. The thickness value at which an alarm will appear changes from one test application to another, any time that the acceptable
material dimensions change.
Note:
Once a data file is saved, the MIN and MAX alarm values used when that data was recorded will become effective whenever that
data file is reactivated.
An alarm can be set for either the minimum or maximum thickness. If the value goes below the minimum value or above the maximum
value, the displayed value on the screen flashes red, and the Alarm icon flashes in the icon bar at the upper left (Figure 26 below).
