UNCTIONS IN DETAIL – 1 – ON/MODE Key Use this key to put the +CLINO PLUS+ into operation. The Key ON/MODE must remain pressed until all the display segments are visible. The +CLINO PLUS+ thereafter automatically changes to the previously set operational mode. The display will show until the first valid measurement value is available.

By multiple use of the key "ON/MODE", align the selection pointer with the position "ZERO". The selection pointer is flashing Use the key "ENTER/HOLD" to collect the first reading. The instrument may still be positioned correctly. A measurement is only collected after two identical values are repeated. (The +CLINO PLUS+ is able to detect when it is free from interference) As soon as a valid measurement is registered it will be displayed.

SERVICE ALIBRATION A reserved memory space incorporated in the +CLINO PLUS+ contains calibration data in predefined intervals. Prior to all displays this data is accessed applying a specialized interpolation and is used to compute the measurement value. Calibration data stored in this memory is initiated from an automatic calibration process based on a high accuracy dividing head, which is performed at the manufacturing stage.
