The gauge will then enter into the measuring mode and display:
● 0.0mm/0.00mm (0.00in/0.000in depending on the last used.)
● Velocity rate and selected probe
Backlight ON/OFF
● Press the [Change Setting/Calibration] key, the backlight is ON.

Measurement
There are three ways to go into the measuring mode:

Calibration
When the gauge is initially switched ON or if an error value instead of 4.00mm
appears (when velocity rate is 5920 m/s), or if you take a measurement of a test
block attached on the gauge (where the correct value should be 4.00mm) or on
another standard test block, then the gauge needs to be calibrated.
To calibrate the gauge, press the [Calibration] key. The gauge will display the same
information listed above, operate according to that information and then the gauge
automatically calibrate.
