6. Testing the instrument
Due to the underlying measurement principle,
no calibration of the instrument is required. It is
recommended, however, to check the functionality
of the instrument at regular intervals (about once
every 3 months). The reference tile included with
delivery is provided for this purpose.
Select the “Standard” in the Measure menu. The
configuration of this organizer is fixed and cannot
be changed.
The unit then switches to the measurement mode.
Place the instrument on the test tile and perform
three measurements.
The values printed on the reference tile are the
corrected readings. If the values measured on
the reference tile are within the printed tolerance
range, the requirements are met.
If the mean value is not within the desired
tolerance range, try carefully cleaning the test tile
(see Chap. 16). If this produces no improvement,
please contact our Customer Service department.
Reference tile
To ensure a precise instrument test, only original
test tiles from the manufacturer should be used.
Their surface must not be touched and must be
protected against scratches. Due to environmental
influences, however, the values of test tiles can
change over the course of time even if they are
handled gently. For this reason, have the test tiles
checked by the manufacturer at regular intervals
(annual checks are recommended).
