To access the Density Offset functions, press 〈1〉 at the Offset
menu.
The gauge displays the current density offset on the second line.
 To enable the displayed density offset, press 〈1〉. The
gauge enables the offset, displays a brief confirmation
message, and returns to the Ready screen.
 To disable the density offset, press 〈2〉. The gauge
disables the offset, displays a brief confirmation message,
and returns to the Ready screen.
NOTE
The density offset is also disabled when the gauge is
turned off for more than 10 seconds.
 To enter a new density offset, press 〈3〉. The gauge
prompts for the density offset as shown:
The density offset value is determined by calculating the
difference between the gauge wet density result and an alternative
wet density measurement (Ex. Sand cone or drive cylinder)
performed on the particular soil being measured.
To change the offset, select the sign (positive or negative) using
the up and down arrows, enter the density offset value (in lb/ft
3
or
kg/m
3
), and press 〈ENTER/START〉. The gauge enables the new
density offset and returns to the Ready screen.
