10. APPLICATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
10.1 Probing
The measurement precision is directly linked to the quality of contact between the probe and
the part to be measured (⇒ probing). The instrument offers all tools allowing an optimal
probing:
Probing indicator
Situated on the left of the measured value, it views the
probing zone (1).
If the probing zone has been passed, the display shows
-.- - -and an acoustic signal rings out as long as the
indicator remains out of the probing zone.
Probing direction indicators
Besides the acoustic signal, the measurement is visually
confirmed by the indicators of the probing direction (2)
and by the probing symbol (3).
Acoustic signal
An acoustic signal confirms a correct measurement
probing movement (measuring force set) and that the
value has been taken.
10.2 Air Cushion (V4 ÷ V8)
The use of the air cushion facilitates the displacement of
the instrument on the granite plate. The activation of the
air cushion lifts the instrument at some µm. The air
cushion is not only used for the displacement of the
instrument in general but also when performing
measurements (e.g. diameters). The main application is
found particularly in industrial fields with large heavy
parts. Small parts can be moved without activating the air
cushion. This allows to significantly increase the
autonomy of the instrument.
The air cushion force can be adjusted in the set-up menu
(§ 9). It should be set on the minimum value allowing a
comfortable displacement of the instrument.
When using the air cushion displacement for measurement procedures, all
functions e.g. zero or preset setting of the display should be done with air cushion
to take into consideration the lifting amount of the instrument.
