Diameter Error
There was a problem with the measured diameter of the setting
master.
Dark Ref failed

wrong position.
Illumination Dim / Uneven

E-Stop Hit

The most likely causes of faults are dirt on the setting master, poor location of the setting master in the
tooling or wrong setting master being used. Check that the serial number on the setting master
corresponds to that displayed on the computer SCREEN, clean the setting master and re-run the
calibration program. If the problem recurs, contact the SYLVAC SA Service organization.
4.6 Measurement Mode
In Measurement mode the measurement system will support the following functions :
 Measure a component placed in the gauging device
 Display the results of measurement on the SCREEN
 Update the statistics (if option available)
When accessing the 'Open Measurement' option after a successful calibration the data display window
will contain a blank screen with the Text display headings. The toolbar measurement control buttons
will become active. After each measurement has been completed, the data will be shown in the table
below their corresponding headings. Each screen full of information is called a page and if the number
of dimensions displayed exceeds the single page limit, the Page control will enable viewing of the next
set of dimensions.
