Calibrating to a Known Thickness (CALIBRATE)
This method of calibrating the gauge is more accurate than using a
standard velocity value as the gauge calculates the velocity of
sound for the sample material.
You can use this calibration method for both Multiple and Single
Echo modes.
Calibrating to a Known Thickness
1
Accurately measure the thickness of
your sample material
2
Place the Probe on the sample…
3
…the gauge should be displaying a
thickness value.
4
Select CALIBRATE from the Main
Menu
5
Press the Left Button to decrease the
thickness value.
Press the Right Button to increase
the thickness value.
Holding down either button will fast-
change the value.
6
If the probe looses contact with the
measurement surface during
calibration the screen will display the
10.80 mm
