that begins with the “*” key, then the two digits that determine the option, and
then the ENTER key. The table below lists the available options and the
corresponding keystrokes. The default option setting is Mean.
STATISTICS
After readings have been taken, the statistics saved in each memory location can
be displayed. If a statistic is displayed while the gage is in the Regular Mode, the
statistic will remain on the display until the ENTER key is pressed or the probe is
placed on another sample. With the gage in Continuous Mode and with the
Capture Feature on, a statistic will remain on the display for three seconds after
which time the gage reverts to the Continuous Mode.
Viewing the Statistics
Measurements taken in each memory location are stored separately as individual
sets of statistics. Select the memory location from which you wish to display the
statistics. The statistic keys are located in the top two rows of the keypad. The
information associated with each key is listed below. When a statistics key is
pressed, a letter shown in parenthesis below, and the word STAT will show in the
lower left of the display.
Number (N) Number of Readings
MEAN (M) Mean or Average
S.D. (S) Standard Deviation
High (H) Highest Reading
Low (L) Lowest Reading
To leave the statistics mode and continue taking readings press the ENTER key
or place probe on the part. Upon leaving the statistics mode, the last reading
taken will be displayed. Any subsequent readings will be added to the statistics
in the memory location selected.
Clearing the Statistics
If the word “FULL” appears on the display and the unit error (long duration)
beeps while taking measurements, the statistics’ memory is full. To clear the
statistics, follow the procedure below. This can be done in Regular or
Continuous Modes.
1. To clear statistics from a memory location, select the desired memory
location.
2. Press any of the statistics keys so that the gage is displaying a statistic.
3. Press the CLEAR key. The word “STAT” will flash in the lower left of the
display.
4. To abort the clearing of the statistics, press the C/M key while the unit is
flashing “STAT”.
5. To continue the clearing process, press the CLEAR key again to confirm
that the statistics are to be cleared.
