4.9.1
Reading the display screen
From here press the START button to begin. This brings up the empty page.
Fig 4.1 Page with a grid of 150/150 mm.
The XY- coordinates are displayed in meters. The display has 16 points x 15 points (240 points) for
displaying the measured values as a grey scale. This constitutes a “page”. With the XY-grid set to
150/150mm, as in the example here, this represents a total area of (2250mm x 2100mm).
A total of 980 pages can be stored in the memory. The number of pages that are still available for
use is shown in the top right hand corner of the measuring screen (Fig 5.1). (e.g. 491 P indicates 491
pages are still available.)
The number of pages contained in an object is not limited except by this.
1 – The cursor shows the next measurement location
2 – The arrow shows in which direction the cursor will move. This can be altered to match the meas-
urement direction by pressing the arrow keys.
3 – The measured value.
4 – The Object number.
5 – The meter value. E.g. a 10 will be shown here if we have travelled 10m in the X-direction.
