DMTA-10022-01EN, Rev. C, January 2015Chapter 4504.6 Changing the Thickness ResolutionIt is possible to change the thickness-measurement resolution, meaning the number ofdigits shown to the right of the decimal point. The resolution selection affects alldisplays and data output of values with thickness units. This includes measuredthickness, differential reference value, and alarm set points. The highest thicknessresolution with a dual element transducer is 0.01 mm (or 0.001 in.). The velocity isalways reported with full four-digit resolution.The resolution can be reduced in certain applications where the extra precision of thelast digit is not required, or where extremely rough outside or inside surfaces makethe last thickness display digit unreliable.The Single Element including High Resolution software option (P/N: 45MG-SE[U8147022]) makes it possible to increase the resolution to 0.001 mm (or 0.0001 in.).High resolution is available for measured thickness smaller than 102 mm (4 in.). Highresolution is not active with low-frequency transducers, or when the High Penetrationsoftware option is activated.To change the thickness-measurement resolution1. In the measurement screen, press [SETUP], and then select MEAS.2. In the MEAS screen (see Figure 8-1 on page 142), set RESOLUTION to thedesired option:• STANDARD: 0.01 mm (or 0.001 in.) [default]• LOW: 0.1 mm (or 0.01 in.)• Optional HIGH: 0.001 mm (or 0.0001 in.)3. Press [MEAS] to return to the measurement screen.
