All the settings relevant to measuring
the coating thickness of a coated
sample
1
and the measurement read-
ings themselves are saved in a file.
Such a file is called a batch.
In the batch, you define the measure-
ment procedure, e.g. whether the
specification limits are to be moni-
tored during the measurement or
whether the measurement readings
are to be grouped in measurement
block. In addition, you must assign a
calibration (reference) to the batch in
order to measure.
3 steps to the measurement
1. Switch on the gage, , and
remove the protective cap from
the probe
2. Open a batch or create a new
one
• Opening a batch, see
page 21
• Creating a new batch, see
page 20
3. Take a measurement on the
sample, see Page 23
If the specified precision is not
achieved during the measure-
ment, you must recalibrate the
gage, see page 25.
1. In this manual, both a coated part of any
shape and size and a surface containing
multiple measurement locations are re-
ferred to as the sample.
After the gage is switched on,
the measurement view (exam-
ple) for the batch that was
open at shutdown appears.
