Begin the standard count by pressing the 〈ENTER/START〉 key.

After taking the standard count, the gauge displays the results:
Troxler recommends that the operator keep a daily log of the
moisture and density standard counts (see Appendix D). To verify
gauge stability, compare the daily standard count to a reliable
reference as follows:
♦
During the first four days of operation of a new or recalibrated
gauge, compare the daily standard count to the factory-
calibrated values (which are shown on the calibration report sent
with the gauge).
♦
After the first four days of operation (or after taking four
standard counts), compare the daily standard count to the
average of the last four counts. Acceptable standard count limits
are:
±1.0% for DS (density standard) and
±2.0% for MS (moisture standard).
If the standard count passes, record the standard counts, then
press the
〈YES〉 key. The gauge returns to the Ready screen.
NOTE
The factory standard count values should be used as a
reference if the daily standard counts are ever in
question. Be sure to refer to the most recent calibration
report for the gauge in question.
