Operation Hardness measurement
3.3 Hardness measurement
If you intend to measure on low-alloy or unalloyed
steels, no adjustment to the instrument setting is re-
quired because the DynaPOCKET is set to this mate-
rial group as default setting.
When measuring on high-alloy steels as well as on
other materials, such as nonferrous metals, you have
to select the required material group before carrying
out the measurement.
Switch-on
– Briefly press either key to switch the DynaPOCKET
on.
Immediately after activating, the instrument carries out
a self-test and displays the installed software version
(e.g. 100 for software version 1.00) on the display. Af-
ter that, the DynaPOCKET is ready for measurement.
Switch-off
The DynaPOCKET is automatically switched off if not
used for approx. 1 minute (single value) resp. for
approx. 3 minutes (measurement set).
This limits unnecessary battery drain to extend the
operating time.
H Note:
When switching off, the displayed reading (or the com-
plete set with measurement sets) is deleted, the se-
lected settings are retained.
If you remove the batteries from the instrument,
the individual settings are lost after about 3 minutes
(e.g. measurement mode and hardness scale).
Carrying out a measurement
– Check that the test attachment is suitable and that
the required settings (e.g. hardness scale) are
selected.
– Position the DynaPOCKET and carry out the mea-
surement. The measured values are digitally dis-
played.
