4 Operating the Gauge

4.1 Display

The display shows the measurements in large numbers next to the unit selected (µm/mm or mil). The
display also shows the menu structure and instructions when working on jobs.

A few special signs and symbols provide additional information on the measurement and the state of
the gauge:
Measurement on ferromagnetic base material (iron or steel)
Measurement on non-magnetic base material (e. g. aluminum)
measurement recalled from the gauges memory (during measuring tasks with jobs)
Measuring error, improper base material, incorrect zero reference
Measuring mode, automated identification of base material
Active wireless connection
Acoustic signal deactivated

4.2 Menu Navigation

Most of the settings and operation features of the gauge are accessible via the menu structure
appearing on the display. Using the four buttons, you can navigate through the menu, select
parameters and activate functions.
The buttons usually have the following functions:
►
Switch to next menu level, activate feature, navigate to next Batch
◄
Back, cancel, navigate to previous Batch
▼
Open Main Menu
▲▼
Menu item, select parameter or option (dark background)
Placing the probe or pressing its tip briefly will close the menu. The last measurement will then
reappear in the display.
Note:
The gauge of the CarCheck System PLUS measuring system can operate in 2 different modes. The
memory mode is activated when a job is started. With no active job, the gauge is in standard mode.
The menus slightly differ in the 2 modes.
