If the gauge is not used for a long period, please remove the batteries
from the gauge in order to prevent leakage that could damage the unit.
In case of a malfunction of the instrument please do not try to repair it on
your own. Our customer service will be happy to assist you.
Starting up and changing batteries
The gauge is powered by two AA batteries alkaline. Instead, two
rechargeable AA batteries with 1.2V each can be used. Please note that
rechargeable batteries have a significantly lower capacity.
Low battery power is indicated in three steps:
Step 1:
Change of batteries is advised. However, several
measurements can still be taken until the gauge
shuts off. Backlight is on.
Step 2:
(small symbol) Measurements are still possible.
Backlight is off.
Step 3:
(large symbol in the middle of the display)
Measurements are no longer possible.
Note! Empty batteries should be disposed of properly. If possible, please
use the appropriate method.
Zero-Adjustment
A zero-adjustment is required when using the gauge for the first time or
after inserting new batteries, when working with different materials or from,
time to time. (e.g. when the ambient temperature changes). We strictly
recommend carrying out the reference check on the uncoated original
substrate in order to adjust for possible geometric or surface specific cha-
racteristics (ref. Technical Data). If this is not possible, please use the zero-
reference plates supplied with the case. Place the gauge on one of the
zero plates in the case. For the Fe-probe please use the steel plate; for the
NFe-probe use the aluminum plate, if you want to measure on aluminum;
or use a suitable uncoated Fe- or NFe-substrate.
Please make sure the probe is switched to the correct measuring mode
during zero-adjustment. Otherwise false measurements might occur.
Please make sure the probe tip is placed perpendicularly and evenly on
the surface . If measuring on a cylindrical body, you can use the v-groove
to ensure the position. If the value indicated is not within the range of the
accuracy, adjust the gauge as follows: Place the gauge on the zero plate
(substrate). Then press the button once. A control number appears on the
display and an acoustic signal sounds. Now lift off the gauge at least
10 cm (4 inches) from the zero plate (substrate). The acoustic signal
sounds again and another control number appears. The zero-adjustment
is completed.
When repeating measurements on the same spot, the reading may not
always be 0 µm or 0.00 mil, since surface roughness, dirt, scratches etc.
might cause variances.
Handling
Place the gauge evenly on the spot to be tested. Take care that the ring-
like bearing area connects completely with the measuring area around the
measuring probe. Use the grips near the measurement head to ensure pro-
per placement. The display immediately shows the reading accompanied
by an acoustic signal.
Together with the measuring result you will also receive information on
what probe, Fe or NFe, the gauge used. This is particularly important when
using the Dual-Probe.
t
When being zeroed on a non-metallic substrate or when operated in the
wrong way a "Zero Reference Error" appears. Readings exceeding the
measuring range are indicated with „INFI" (infinite) if the substrate has
been selected as fixed. If substrate selection is enabled, the gauge will
switch the substrate. The gauge switches on automatically when placed
on a surface and turns off when not in use for about 30 seconds.
The v-groove on the measuring tip helps measuring on rods or tubes etc.
Setting the measuring mode or unit (μm or mil)
Using the operating key while the gauge is switched on and not placed
on a surface will display the possible measuring modes and "Unit".
The current measuring mode is then marked on the display. When the
operating key is used, the gauge switches to the next measuring mode
which activates if the button is not used again for 2 seconds. If "Unit"
is marked and nothing else happens, a menu opens with the entries 'µm'
and 'mil' and the current unit marked. Using the operating key you can
choose the unit you want.
Measuring with the Dual-Probe (QNix® 4500)
The gauge offers several ways to select the measuring mode. One way to
do this while the gauge is switched on is the operating key as described
above.
Fe- or NFe-mode:
For applications with clearly indicated substrate, the Fe or NFe mode can
be set as a fix mode. The current measuring mode is then indicated at the
left hand side.
Fe/NFe mode:
When constantly changing between steel and non-iron substrate, activate
the Fe/NFe mode. In this mode, indicated as two round arrows on the
display, the gauge switches to semi-automatic operation. A change of
substrate is then indicated by a message prompting to take another
reading by lifting and re-placing the probe.
Please note that the NFe measuring method allows measurements on
ferro-magnetic substrate (e.g. iron, steel). However, due to the substrate's
magnetic characteristics, the gauge does not display a correct result.
Therefore check whether the substrate is ferro-magnetic when using the
NFe measuring principle, e.g. by means of an additional check
measurement using the Fe measuring principle.
When using the NFe measuring principle, measurements on the supplied
zeroing plate might result in an INFI message or a number indicated on the
display. This can not be changed and is not a quality defect.
If you find the measuring results to be inadequate despite zero-adjustment
(e.g. if no zero results are produced when zeroing on the plates supplied),
deactivate the automatic mode selection and zero the gauge in both
modes using the plates supplied.
Possible messages on the display
