12.4 ST1 & ST2
philosophy
The two main modes integrated in the height gauge range are defined by the names ST1
and ST2 . These are the most frequently used modes. They can directly be selected
via the main menu of the measurement software, which can be displayed at any moment
by pressing key .
The major difference between these two measurement modes is closely linked to the
features (height, diameter etc.) that will be determined during one measurement sequence.
The determination of certain features does not require an inversion of the probing direction,
while others entirely depend on it.
• Lengths measurement in only one probing direction.
• The calibration of the probe is not necessary.
• Lengths measurement in two probing directions.
• The calibration of the probe is mandatory.
Each one of the two modes has been developed in order to best suit the different
application cases and possibilities of use. The flexibility of mode ST2 allows you to
measure any elements, while ST1 mode minimises the time of access to the measurement
(avoiding the probe calibration process) and allows you to use accessories that cannot be
easily calibrated with the master piece.
