Control elements

5

The basic system consists of the
measuring device and the
protective holder.

The protective holder is used for
calibration and to store the
measurement unit. Calibration is
performed inside the holder
automatically at the touch of a
button. The gloss standard
required for this purpose is kept in
the holder and is positioned in
such a manner that calibration is
always performed at the same
point.

When the device is turned on
inside the holder, it performs a self-
test (autodiagnosis).
If you will not be using the
measuring unit, please store it in
the protective holder. In this way
the measurement optics are
protected from dirt and dust and
the calibration standard is always
readily available.

The operate button and scroll
wheel are used to control the
system. Pressing the wheel turns
the unit on and causes a menu to
be displayed. All settings within the
menus are made by turning and
pressing the wheel.

Pressing the operate button starts
measurements or performs
functions that are displayed. In
addition, you can return from the
various menus to mode with the
operate button. System operation
is supported by an autodiagnosis
test, comments and error
messages. Measurement values
and comments appear in the
display.
