measurement method
Standard Thickness value
Measurement Ex.: 5.00 mm
F/ H appears on the extreme
right in Free / Hold mode,
respectively.
Aluminum Thickness value followed by A
Measurement Ex.: 5.00 mm_A
F/H appears on the extreme
right in Free/Hold mode,
respectively.
TI-44N provides two measurement modes depending
upon the nature of the test material (Standard and
Aluminum mode), which can be easily switched by
MODE switch operation:
Pressing and holding the MODE switch for longer than two seconds always
toggles back and forth between the Free and Hold modes.
Free mode is the correct choice for almost all applications. Select the Hold
mode when readings fluxuate and stable measurement cannot be obtaned.
