• If the rebars of the first layer run in a vertical direction
as shown in Fig. 5.14, the travel paths must
be positioned horizontally with the selected grid spa-
cing in direction y. Move the mobile probe along these
paths. In Fig. 5.16, pos. 7, the smallest concrete cover
measured in a grid field is displayed and stored auto-
matically as grey scale.
• After having finished one row, press the
↓
key. The
cursor jumps to below the last field and the arrow
direction changes automatically.
After every manual or automatic change of the
arrow direction, RESET must be pressed. See
also «RESET process», page 10.
• Once the second row at the edge of the measuring
area (y-axis) is completed, the cursor jumps to below
the last field and the arrow direction changes automa-
tically.
The indicating device operates in the same way if the
travel paths are positioned vertically, i.e. if measuring is
performed in direction y.
• If a hindrance prevents the measurements, you can
shift the cursor by the size of the obstacle.
• Individual values can be deleted by positioning the
cursor on the respective value and pressing the
PRINT/STORE key for two seconds.
• You can subsequently expand the object opened last in
the x and y-direction on new pages comprising 240
measured values.
• For all previous objects, measured values can only be
entered in pages that are not yet full.
• If the measurement cannot be started in the top left
corner (x and y = 0) you can move the cursor to the
starting position using the corresponding arrow keys.
• If you want to reserve pages that will be needed later,
each page has to be selected separately. To confirm
the reservation you can set a grey scale symbol in the
second row using the PRINT/STORE key. The grey
scale symbol can be overwritten or deleted at any time.
