Checkline TI-CMX - Manual (Page 3)

2.0 Q UICK -S TART G UIDE
Turn the TI-CMX on and off using the switch located on the bottom right corner of the keypad.
When TI-CMX is initially turned on, a flash logo and blinking lights are displayed. Then the
gauge attempts to identify the currently attached transducer (probe). The TI-CMX has an “Auto
Probe Recognition” feature that attempts to identify special transducers with feature built in . If
the TI-CMX doesn’t find a transducer so equipped, the user must select a transducer from the
Probe Type list. The following sections outline each scenario.
NOTE: This section is primarily written as a basic startup guide only.
2.1 TI-CMX Overview
In order to understand how to operate the TI-CMX, it’s best to start off with an under-
standing of what it is we’re looking at exactly. The TI-CMX has a lot of great features
and tools that will prove to be a huge benefit for the variety of applications you’re con-
stantly facing on a continual basis. Let’s have a brief look at the screens you’ll be look-
ing at most often:
A. Repeatability/Stability Indicator – This indicator should be commonly used in con
junction with the digital thickness values displayed. When all the vertical bars are
fully illuminated and the last digit on the digital thickness value is stable, the
TI- CMX is reliably measuring the same value 3 to 200 times per second, depending
on which measurement mode and features are enabled.
B. Battery Icon – Indicates the amount of battery life the TI-CMX has remaining.
C. Velocity – The material velocity value the TI-CMX is currently using or calibrated
for. Displayed in English or Metric units, depending on the what units the gauge is
set for.
D. Feature Status Bar – Indicates the features currently enabled and in use in the
following order:
• Measurement Mode
• Differential Mode
• High Speed Scan Mode
• Alarm Mode
• Gain Setting
E. Digital Material Thickness Value – Extra large font size for viewing ease.
