9.8 Creating new calibration
In the following cases, you have to record the influencing variables with a new cali-
bration in order to compensate for them when measuring.
When there is a new specimen, the material properties, geometry and coating
thickness range for which no calibration has yet been created.
You have determined during test measurements that none of the listed calibra-
tions is suitable for the specimen at hand.
Before you start
Refer to the notes on calibration, 56.
The probe with which the new calibration is to be performed is connected to the
gauge.
Reference piece and/or calibration standards (calibration foils) are ready.
The parts you need depends on the specifications in the directives/standards
or the measurement accuracy required.
Overview of calibration methods, page 55
To create a new calibration
1. Open the calibration menu New: > Calibrations > OK > New > OK.
2. Follow the routine and perform the desired calibration steps (Zero, Std. 1/2).
a "Calibration step Zero – Procedure", 59
b "Calibration step Std – procedure", 61
This completes the creation process for a new calibration. The calibration is stored
in the connected probe or in the DMP-F probe adapter under the probe identifier of
the connected probe.
Keep in mind that many calibrations involving different calibration methods for
different base materials can be stored in the probe/DMP-F probe adapter. A
unique name makes it easier to select and assign the desired calibration to a
batch.
