Introduction - Check-line DC**-3000PS series Operating Instructions Manual

1.0

INTRODUCTION

Checkline's 3000PS Series gauges provide precise, non-destructive digital coating
thickness measurement on steel and non-ferrous metals.
Three models are available:
DCF-3000PS: For testing non-magnetic coatings such as varnish, paint, enamel,
chrome, copper, zinc, etc., on steel and iron.
DCN-3000PS: For testing varnish, paint and anodizing on non-ferrous metals and
on austenitic stainless steels.
DCFN-3000PS: Combines the ferrous and non-ferrous testing capabilities of the
DCF-3000PS and DCN-3000PS.
3000PS Series gauges employ the same familiar menu technique that is used in
cellular telephones.
There are 4 main menu sections:
- Calibrations,
- Statistics,
- Limit Values and
- Options.
All gauge functions are accessed from one of these main sections. The steps
necessary to reach and activate a particular gauge function appear on the display in
clear, easily understood language - place probe on Cal foil, for example. A
confirming message appears on the display as each step is completed.
Chapter 13 provides a diagram of the menu structure.
It will be helpful to take a few minutes to study this chapter while practicing using the
UP, DOWN, OK and ESC keys to move through the menus selections. The 3000PS
Series gauges are very easy to use. A few minutes spent familiarizing yourself with
using the keys to move through the menus is all the training required.

After turning on the instrument, press UP or DOWN repeatedly to move to the
desired main section (Calibration, for example). Next, press OK to access the
second level subsections within the main section. Press DOWN to scroll through the
second level subsections and OK to select one. Use the same technique of pressing
UP or DOWN and OK to access third level subsections; use ESC to move back to
the next higher level up to the - - - - screen, delete the last reading immediately after
taking it and interrupt a setting action.
