5. Power ON/OFF
1) Turning the power on
1
Press the [DATA ON/OFF] key.
⇨ Power turns on.
2) Turning the power off
1
Press and hold the [DATA ON/OFF] key.
⇨ Power turns off.
Tips
• The product always starts up in measurement mode when the power is turned on.
• The measurement system when the power is turned on is the same as it was when turned off.
(Refer to "7. Switching Measurement Systems" for details about measurement systems.)
• If the power does not turn on even when the [DATA] key is pressed, the battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery.
• Turning the power off while making settings will cancel the setting and return the product to the
status before setting.
6. Operation Modes
This product is equipped with the following two operation modes.
• Measurement mode:
This mode is used for tasks such as normal measurement, calculation measurement, tolerance
judgment, holding displayed values, and outputting displayed values to an external device.
• Parameter setting mode:
This mode is used to set parameters.
Refer to "10. Setting Parameters" for details on how to set parameters.
7. Switching Measurement Systems
Measurement mode includes the following two measurement systems.
•
Absolute measurement (ABS): Measures the distance from a set (preset) reference point. The
reference point can be set to any desired value to support a wide range of workpieces.
•
Incremental measurement (INC): Zeros the displayed value with the master and measures a
difference between the master and a workpiece.

Tips
The displayed value is simultaneously reset to zero when switching the measurement system
from ABS to INC.

8. Switching Unit System
Press the [MODE in/mm] key to switch the unit system between in (inches) and mm (millimeters).
9. Measurement Method
When setting or presetting the origin, be sure to lift the
spindle at least 0.2 mm above the bottom dead center.
1) For absolute measurement (ABS)
For absolute measurement, first set (preset) the origin using the following procedure, and then
measure.
A preset value can be set for normal measurement and calculation measurement respectively.
1
Confirm that the product is in absolute measurement.
⇨
If in incremental measurement, switch the measurement system to absolute measurement.
(Refer to "7. Switching Measurement Systems" for details.)
2
Press the [SET] key to start the origin setting (presetting).
⇨
[P] will blink and the previous preset value
will be displayed.
⇨ Continue to step

preset value.

Setting the preset value
1 Press and hold the [SET] key.
⇨ The sign will blink and the preset value
can be changed.
2 Press the [MODE] key to change the sign.
⇨ Each time the [MODE] key is pressed,
it will switch the sign between "+" and "-".
3 Press the [SET] key.
⇨
The sign is confirmed and the neighboring
digit blinks.
4
Press the [MODE] key to change the number.
⇨ Each time the [MODE] key is pressed,
it will switch values in the order of
"0→1→2...→9→0".
5 Press the [SET] key.
⇨ The number is confirmed and the
neighboring digit blinks. Press the [SET]
key again to skip over the digit.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 above until the numbers
for all digits are confirmed.
⇨ Confirming the last digit will cause [P] to
blink.
Tips
If the preset value is incorrect, press and hold the [SET] key
and redo from step

2 Press the [SET] key.
⇨ Registered preset value is displayed (example: 30.000 mm).
3 Confirm the preset value, and then press the [SET] key
.
⇨
The preset value is set as the origin, and the product returns to absolute measurement.

Tips
• The set preset value and origin are retained even when the power is turned off. However, they
are cleared when replacing the battery and must be reset.
• The preset value is automatically converted when the unit system or resolution is changed. In
this case, however, a conversion error may be produced. It is therefore recommended to check
the preset value after changing the unit system or resolution.
• Press and hold the [MODE] key to stop or cancel settings midway through.
2) For incremental measurement (INC)
Incremental measurement is used to measure the dimensional difference between the master (used
as reference) and a workpiece.
1
Confirm that the product is in incremental measurement.
⇨ If in absolute measurement , switch the measurement system to incremental measurement.
(Refer to "7. Switching Measurement Systems" for details.)
2
Set the master to use for reference.
3
Press the [SET] key.
⇨ Displayed value is reset to zero.
4
Replace the master with the workpiece and perform incremental measurement.
