4. Scanning
The TQC Sheen Glossmeter starts the scan interface as soon as the device is
powered on.
Press the scan button shortly to make a single measurement or longer to make
several measurements. The TQC Sheen Glossmeter will emit a signal for every
measurement. The device stops scanning as soon as the scan button is released.
Note: Data scanned in this way is not stored in a batch. For more information on
storing scanned data in batches, see chapter 5.
To access the scan function after you have used other menu options, select the
Scan option in the main menu.
Scan angles
Based on the model of the TQC Sheen Glossmeter you are using, you can activate
one, two or three different scan angles in the start menu. A scan angle is specified
for various surfaces. The 60º angle is the reference angle and can be used for every
surface, from matte to mirror finish. The 20º scan angle achieves the best results on
high-gloss surfaces, whereas the 85º scan angle works best on matte surfaces.
For information on activating and deactivating scan angles, see section 0.
If necessary, scanning ranges can be set. For more information, see section 3.3.
