1.9 The Sensor Head Dimensions.

The sensor head is a cylinder of size 27mm diameter x 55mm length.

1.10 Measuring the Thickness.

When the sensor head is at the desired measuring point pull and hold the orange trigger
and make small figure of eight movements of the Sensor Head to ensure that Transducer
Magnet is centrally located on the Sensor Head. Centring of the calibrated magnet will easily
occur on materials up to 20mm (0.78") thick but will also depend on the surface finish of the
material being measured.
On releasing the trigger the unit will display and transmit the minimum value measured to
the receiver. The data that are sent to the PC are the Date, Time, Mould Identification
Number, the Mould Position Number and the Thickness Reading.
If the receiver is not connected to the PC, a 'TX Error' will be displayed after holding down
and releasing the trigger. The unit is still operational and can be used to display on-screen
readings without the receiver being connected to the PC, however users should be aware
that a 'TX Error' indicates that the reading is not saved on the PC.

1.11 Deleting a Thickness Measurement.

If an erroneous thickness measurement has been made and transmitted to the PC then it
can be remotely deleted from the PC. To do this press the delete button; the display signals
confirmation. The Position Number on the PC will then be reduced by '1'.

1.12 Indexing Mould ID.

After the thickness measurements on a particular mould are completed the user has the
option to increment the Mould Identification number. This number is used as a guide to
indicate which moulds are being measured and recorded.
To increment the Mould Index number complete the following two steps:
Step 1. Move the magnet away from the sensor head so that O/R ('out of range') is
displayed on-screen;
Step 2: Hold the trigger down for 7 seconds.
