25 GAUGE SETUPS

Your gauge contains 64 configurable preset locations in which you can store custom gauge setups,
each one optimised for a specific measuring application.
These gauge setups can save time when conducting routine inspections of the same job or project.
This feature also helps to eliminate error between two or more users during the setup and
calibration process.
The setups store:
Measurement mode
Transducer type
Gain setting
Scan mode setting
Alarm settings
Differential settings
Display type setting
As well as storing the setups in your gauge, you can also store the setups on a computer and
transfer them bi-directionally using the PC interface software included with the gauge.
The factory supplied setups stored in the gauge cover some of the more typical applications
commonly used with this type of instrument and may be modified freely by the user.
The PC interface software includes a default setup file that can be uploaded to the gauge at any
time to restore factory settings. However, you should consider saving modified setups to an empty
location rather than overwriting the factory setups in your gauge.

It is sometimes necessary to rename a previously saved setup, or add additional comments about
a particular setup. The other comments about the project may also be required for additional
documentation purposes.
The following procedures outline the necessary steps for saving and editing a setup:
