Page 11: Probe Connection
Probe connection A measurement probe must be connected to the instrument to make coating thick- ness measurements. This must be an appropriate probe suitable for the base ma- terial. Connect probes only when the instrument is off! To turn the instrument off: Press the ON/OFF key on the right side of the control panel. -

Instrument On/Off Turning the instrument on Detail of the LCD Explanation display Press the ON/OFF key to turn on the instrument. An audible signal will sound. A monitoring routine will run automatically. All display ele- ments of the LCD display will appear briefly at the same time ( Page 4). - Page 13 Measurement Method of the Connected Probe Display Explanation [ NF/Fe] Magnetic induction probe connected. [ NC/NF] Eddy current probe connected [NF/Fe NC/NF] Dual probe connected and dual method [both] set (i.e., in the open application, both measurement methods can be used to make measurements).

Page 14: Adjusting Instrument And Probe
Adjusting Instrument and Probe The following options exist after the instrument is turned on: The instrument recognizes the connected probe. The measurement screen appears on the LCD display. The display of the measurement method does not flash. In this case, you can start immediately making measurements. If the instrument is turned on and a probe other than the one used last is connected, the following display will appear: “W006 Probe changed”. -
Page 15: Normalization
Normalization With the normalization, a new zero point is established for the calibration curve and stored in the instrument. Required materials Reference part: Uncoated part from the production. Procedure Key sequ. / Detail of the LCD Explanation Action display ZERO Use ZERO to start the normalization. -
Page 16: Corrective Calibration
Key sequ. / Detail of the LCD Explanation Action display ENTER The new characteristic will be computed automatically and stored. The instrument is again ready to make measurements. Corrective Calibration Options One-point calibration with one calibration standard: A new zero point and one additional point are established for the calibration curve and stored in the in- strument. - Page 17 Procedure Key sequ. / Detail of the LCD Explanation Action display Use CAL to start the corrective calibration. CAL appears and remains on the LCD dis- play while the corrective calibration is per- formed. [s]: Standard deviation [n]: Number of measurements [base material (Fe/NF)]: Measurements should be performed on an uncoated spec- imen (Fe or NF display for the type of base...
- Page 18 Key sequ. / Detail of the LCD Explanation Action display Place the calibration standard 1 (in the ex- ample with a thickness of 23.7 µm) on the uncoated specimen and perform measure- ments. Make individual measurements at various points of the reference area. Displayed is the mean value of all measurements per- formed for this step.
-
Page 19: Reference Measurements
Reference Measurements Perform several reference measurements by measuring the thickness of a calibration standard placed on the uncoated reference area in order to verify a correct normalization or corrective calibration. The thickness of the stan- dard should be close to the nominal thickness value of the coating to be mea- sured. -
