4.8 SELECTING THE MEASUREMENT RATE & RESOLUTION
Three user selectable measurement repetition rates are available;
4, 8 and 16 Hz - the gauge will take 4, 8 or 16 readings per second
depending on the rate selected.
To select the reading rate, press Menu/Setup/Reading/Reading Rate.
When in 'Scan Mode' - see Section 9.3 'Taking a Reading in Scan
Mode' on page en-19 - the reading rate is set at 16 Hz (16 readings
per second).
The gauges have a user selectable reading resolution of 0.1mm
(0.01") - 'Low', or 0.01mm (0.001") - 'High', which gives more precise
readings when measuring on thinner materials.
To select the resolution, press Menu/Setup/Reading/Resolution and
select 'Low' or 'High' as required.
5 SETTING LIMITS
Limits are acceptable tolerance levels as defined by the user allowing
the user to compare readings to pre-defined values. The Elcometer
307 can store up to 40 pre-programmed limits.
Limits can be created on the gauge or via PC using ElcoMaster , and
saved into the gauge memory for future selection. Using ElcoMaster ,
saved limits can be transferred to other gauges.
Each Limit can consist of a nominal or target value (x:) - required for
'Readings & Differential' - a low (
Limits can either be created for individual readings or when a new
batch is opened, see Sections 5.1 and 5.2. Different batches can have
different limit values.
When created, limits are stored in the gauge limit memory and are
available for future selection, see Section 5.3.
Saved limits can be renamed and the values can be amended at any
time, see Sections 5.4 and 5.5.
