Chapter 3. Setting Up the DM5E
26 DM5E Operating Manual
3.3 Instrument Calibration
Before using the DM5E, the instrument and the connected probe must be calibrated using one or more standards of known thickness. It is
important that the Setup file corresponding to the probe be selected prior to launching the calibration process. Then, the user can select
either 1pt, 2pt, or AUTO calibration mode in the LOCKOUT menu. To complete the calibration, follow the instructions on your instrument's
display screen and in Figure 10 on page 27 (1pt mode), Figure 11 on page 28 (2pt mode) or Figure 12 on page 29 (Auto mode).
Note: Proper calibration is essential for accurate operation of the instrument. The instrument should be calibrated if there is a change in
the type or temperature of the material being tested, if the attached probe is changed, after performing any parameter adjustment, or
at intervals specified in your test procedures.
