7.5 CHECKING THE CALIBRATION VALUE
To check the calibration value stored in the gauge:
1. Check that the gauge is set to shade mode - see "Setting measurement mode (Shade/Opacity)" on
page 23.
2. Place the gauge on the white calibration tile and take a reading by pressing the READ/SELECT key.
3. Compare the reading with the assigned value of the tile.
• If the reading value matches the value printed on the tile case, the gauge is within calibration limits
and is ready for use.
• If the reading value does not match the value printed on the tile case, check the value stored in the
gauge memory. See "Changing the calibration value" on page 19.

8.1 CHANGING THE CALIBRATION VALUE
The calibration value is stored in the gauge and it is used during calibration in automatic mode. This value
must match the value on the label of the white calibration tile.
Normally the value does not need to be altered before use, as it will be set before the gauge is delivered.
If it becomes necessary to change the stored value, for example if the tile is re-calibrated, or a different
calibration tile is used, then use the following procedure.
1. Press and hold the SCROLL DOWN key and the CANCEL key until
the display shows:
