sition is not optimal and the cover / diameter measurement becomes 
not reliable

•  Now move the probe cart horizontally until one of the Arrow LEDs F 

lights up and then move back until MC LED C or D lights up.

•  At this position you may also measure the diameter either by pushing 

B on the right side of the probe or 5 (see Figure 7) on the Touchscreen 
unit (e. g. when the probe is fixed to the telescopic extension rod).

•  If the spacing of parallel or orthogonal rebars is between 5 and 30 cm 

(2.00 to 12.00 inch), activate AI or NRC correction. If the cover is too 
small for diameter measurement “too close” is displayed.

•  In this case place a wooden or plastic board on the surface and set the 

board thickness as Cover Offset to measure the diameter.

Finally the measured diameter must be set. The cover reading will be cor-
rected according to the diameter set.

NOTE! A rebar is shown only within the cover ranges indicat-
ed in Figure 3; for more details about diameter measurement 
see “3.2.4. Practical Hints”.

• Tap 

6

 to store the diameter and cover measurement.

• Repeat this procedure at each rebar.
The saved data can be seen in the Snapshot and Normal Statistics View 
(see “3.2.3. Cover Meter Display Views”).
Whenever a rebar is inclined to the Cover of the probe, if Display Inclined 
Rebars is set, the angle will be shown on the display (minimum detected 
inclination is 6 degrees).

NOTE! Cover values are only saved for later viewing, if the 
diameter was measured and saved.

will be stored with this file name. If several measurements are made 
under the same filename, a suffix increments after each measure-
