Pay special attention when using this device to measure finished instruments. The probe tip is fabricated from
Delrin and may scratch or leave marks on finished surfaces.

slightly lift the probe before moving it. A good method is to lift the tip and place a piece of soft cloth under before
moving and removing the cloth at the new measuring location.
Some users prefer to use a rice paper or other thin protective paper. You can also calibrate MAG-ic probe with
the rice paper inserted between the magnet and the probe. In this way the zero (0.00) value would include the
paper thickness and all measurements must be performed with the paper included.
You can also use the OFFSET function in the MAG-ic Probe Software to compensate for a thicker protective
cloth if required

Each MAG-ic Probe is carefully calibrated to the magnets supplied with it. a Large chip may affect the accuracy of the device. The biggest cause of magnets chipping is when the 2 supplied magnets are allowed to SNAP together or to steel objects.

Page 8: Usage Tips
Usage Tips MAG-ic Probe BLE is capable of measuring very small distances to 1/1000th inch. It should make sense then that the probe should be absolutely square to the surface being measured and the opposing magnet. If the probe is slightly tilted, the distance from the center of the probe to the target magnet will be slightly increased giving rise to incorrect measurements.
