is taking place, the diameter and the cover are automatically corrected.
This is possible for rebar spacing from 50 to 130 mm / 2.00 to 5.20 inch

Minimum Cover
2)
A
Minimum Cover
value from 10 to 142 mm / 0.40 to 5.56 inch can be
set in 1 mm / 0.04 inch steps (see Appendix 3). In the Single-Line, Multi-
Line and Cross-Line Mode/View rebars with less cover than minimum
cover will be shown in red color. In the Single-Line View and Statistical
View a horizontal, respectively vertical dotted line in red indicates the
Minimum Cover value set.
NOTE! To get smooth color intervals the Minimum and Maxi-
mum Cover should be set in 5 mm / 0.20 inch steps.
Maximum Cover
2)
A
Maximum Cover
value from 20 to 190 mm / 0.80 to 7.48 inch can be
set in steps of 1 mm / 0.04 inch (see Appendix A3). In the Single-Line,
Multi-Line and Cross-Line Mode/View rebars with cover more than Maxi-
mum Cover will be shown in grey color.
NOTE! The Maximum Cover must be at least 10 mm / 0.40
inch higher than the Minimum Cover. If not, the instrument
will correct it automatically.
The Maximum Cover should also be set for different files measured on
the same surface to get the same color range for comparison purpose.
Cover Offset
2)
When a
Cover Offset
value is set the measured cover will be reduced by
this value; e. g. when a wooden or plastic plate is used to measure with
the probe cart on rough surfaces (see “3.7 Practical Hints”). In this case
the plate thickness must be set as Cover Offset value). A value from 1 to
50 mm / 0.04 to 1.92 inch can be set.
Display Inclined Rebar
By setting this feature the inclined rebar is displayed in the Locating Mode
when all four wheels of the cart have passed over the inclined rebar. In
the Single-Line and Multi-Line Modes it is only shown in the cart symbol.
NOTE! In areas with small rebar spacing this feature may not
work properly.
Sharpen
2)
With this setting the signal strength color spectrum of the Multi-Line and
Cross-Line Views can be sharpened.

The respective curve or
no curve is displayed in Single-Line View.
Align Rebar Positions
2)
When measuring in the Multi-Line or Cross-Line Mode along at least two
lines of at least 55 cm / 22.00 inch length, the rebar positions of the last
line are aligned to the rebar positions of the two previous lines.
NOTE! This feature should only be set, if the rebars are running
parallel to the Start line (X- or Y-line). It is not activated during
the measurements (activated only when storing the data).
