Allvis – Manual (EN 2021-05-25)
Since the measures are given in coordinate they don’t give the actual measure between point A and
B, but the coordinate according to the drawing. This means that it is impossible to control a given
measure from such a Datasheet with traditional tools like gauges etc. For that reason Allvis
measuring system is equipped with the ability to triangulate and automatically calculate the
coordinated length measures.
How it is done:
1.
Collapse the measuring arm. Start the tool by pressing the
button. The display is now
750 mm.
2.
Briefly press the button
, the display is now showing 0. Pull out the tool until the display
reaches the stated difference in width measure on the Datasheet between point A and B.
Press again briefly on the button
3.
Measure between A and B.
4.
The stated measure shown in the display is the straight length measure in coordinate
between point A and B. (The so-called projected measure.)
5.
To resume normal mode, press
.
Note!
At measuring operations like the one above it is also important to ensure the measuring tool’s level
with the vehicle concerning the height. For that reason the difference in height between point A and
B should be adjusted between the tool’s front and rear rod.
“Hold” Feature:
The Allvis “Hold” feature will freeze (hold) the digital reading during any measuring operation –
extremely useful when it is difficult to see or read the display in awkward situations.
•
At any time during a measuring operation push the
HOLD
button once to hold the reading.
•
Push the hold button again and the reading will return to normal.
Quick Check Comparison Feature
This feature eliminates the need to compare actual length measurements allowing instead an exact
and very quick differential reading.
•
Measure between 2 selected points and push
ON/0
button once to memorize the reading
and to zero the digital display.
•
Move the measuring arm to the opposite side and its corresponding measuring points.
•
Now the display shows only the difference in length, in millimeters compared with the value
from the opposite side. The reading registers plus or minus values to indicate long or short
conditions.
•
Push the button and hold for 2 seconds to return length measurement.
