Activating continuous mode with stable values
Procedure:
1. Press Arrow Down key three times until “Measuring mode” appears on the display
2. Press OK key; “Autom. Detection FN, F, N” appears on the display
3. Press Arrow Down key twice; “Continuous mode” appears on the display
4. Press OK key
5. Press Arrow Down key several times until “Conti-mode with stable values” appears on the
display
6. Press OK key. “Conti-mode with stable values activated” appears on the display for a short
time, followed by the start screen with the four dashes – – – –
Continuous mode is used only for the measuring method (Ferr, Non-Ferr) which was activated
last. When the base material changes, continuous mode has to be activated again, if desired.
Deactivating continuous mode
Procedure:
1. Press Arrow Down key three times until “Measuring mode” appears on the display
2. Press OK key; “Autom. Detection FN, F, N” appears on the display
3. Press Arrow Down key twice; “Continuous mode” appears on the display
4. Press OK key
5. Press Arrow Down key several times until “Conti-mode deactivate” appears on the display
6. Press OK key. “Conti-mode deactivated” appears on the display for a short time, followed by
the start screen with the four dashes – – – –
8.4 Zero offset mode
With this mode, you can set a constant positive or negative value (zero offset value). This value
will be added automatically to the reading after each measurement. The sum of the original
reading and the zero offset value is then shown on the display. Moreover, the zero offset value is
always displayed at the top of the display as a reminder (OFFSET).
This measuring mode is useful when it comes to determining the upper layer in a coating system
consisting of several layers. If the lower layer(s) is / are known and show(s) an adequately uniform
thickness, the coating thickness of this / these layer(s) can be set as a negative offset value. After
measuring the total coating thickness, the thickness of the lower layer(s) is subtracted (addition of
a negative offset value) and the thickness of the top layer is displayed.
This mode can also be selected for measurements on coated rough metal surfaces. The influence
of the roughness is determined by measuring the uncoated rough metal surface and setting it as a
negative zero offset value. The gauge will then indicate the coating thickness across the peaks of
the rough surface.
Setting the zero offset value
Procedure:
1. Press Arrow Down key three times until “Measuring mode” appears on the display
2. Press OK key; “Autom. Detection FN, F, N” appears on the display
3. Press Arrow Up key; “Zero offset” appears on the display
4. Press OK key; “Zero offset setting” appears on the display
5. Press OK key
6. “Set zero offset value” appears on the display. Use the arrow keys to adjust the zero offset
value; by pressing and holding these keys, the
set value increases or decreases more quickly
