Calculating the Difference Between 2
Measurements
There are multiple methods for determining the measurement difference. Use the method that matches
your application.
y
Difference with the previous measurement
The difference between the current and immediately prior measurements will automatically be
displayed in the bottom row of the LCD screen. For example, if the previous measurement was 25
mm and the current measurement is 45 mm, [20.000] will be displayed.
The difference with the previous measurement can be checked simply by reading the value
displayed in the bottom row.

(page 32)
y
Difference with a user-defined point
A user-defined point can be set as the comparison point for measurements. For example, set the
surface plate as the origin, and then while continually making measurements, the distance relative
to the surface plate will be displayed each time in the bottom row of the LCD screen.

Other Points" (page 33)
y
Difference between two measurements stored in memory
The two measurements are stored in the product's internal memory, and the difference between
the two values is calculated. This memory storage method is useful for when you cannot calculate
the measurement difference using the 2 previously described methods, such as obtaining a
measurement difference with a value obtained 2 measurements ago.
