elongation mode, the measurement consists of a difference equation only
(Loaded Length – Unloaded Length =  Length). Therefore, it doesn't matter if
the ultrasonic length is different from the actual physical length, because the 
Length will be the same. Example: 2.0080" physical loaded length – 2.0000"
physical unloaded length = 0.0080"  Length which is equivalent to 2.1080"
ultrasonic loaded length – 2.1000" ultrasonic unloaded length = 0.0080" 
Length.

3.4 Creating a New Group to Store Measurements

Now that the MiniMax is all setup, this section will explain how to get started
measuring unloaded initial lengths. In order to do this, we need to create a group
that contains bolts. A group can have up to 250 bolts, each bolt containing 1
reference length (L-REF), and up to 51 elongations. Keep in mind that the MiniMax
uses a group to store measurements and all gauge settings at the time of
measurement.
