7 SCAN MODE
In normal operation, your gauge performs and displays four measurements every second, which is quite
adequate for taking a measurement at a single point.
It is sometimes desirable however to examine a larger region, searching for the thinnest point. Your gauge
includes a feature, called Scan Mode, which allows it to do just that.
In Scan Mode, the gauge performs 16 measurements every second, but does not display them, instead the
display shows a moving series of dashes.While the transducer is in contact with the material being
measured, the gauge memorises the lowest measurement it finds. The transducer can be 'scrubbed' across
a surface, and any brief interruptions in the signal will be ignored. When the transducer loses contact with
the surface for more than one second the gauge will display the lowest value it found.
To switch Scan Mode on/off:
When the gauge is not in calibration mode, press the
arrow. A message will appear briefly in the
display confirming the operation.
