That are batch templates with especially designed measurement tasks for specific coating thickness measurement applications. Template package contains following batch types:
Individual Batch template for free configuration: All metrological standard functions are available and calibration method Zero + 1 Foil is used Elementary Template with minimum configuration: No further metrological function settings (customiz-
able), only calibration method Zero is used Smooth Surface Preconfigured batch template for measurements on smooth surfaces: Settings of tolerance limit values (customizable) and calibration method Zero + 1 Foil is used. Rough Surface Preconfigured batch template for measurements on rough surfaces: Display and storage of the mean value of a given number (n) of measurements (customizable, single readings are also stored) and the calibration method Zero + 2 Foils is used. Template package containing batch types with especially designed measurement tasks for mea-
surements of corrosion-protective coatings. The template package contains following batch types:
Individual Batch template for free configuration: All metrological standard functions are available and calibration method Flexible is used IMO PSPC Preconfigured batch template containing 90/10 rule, calibration method and evaluation for coating thickness measurement according to requirements of "Performance Standard for Protective Coatings" of the International Maritime Organization (IMO PSPC), calibra-
tion method 2 Foils is used SSPC PA2 Preconfigured batch template with settings (partly customizable), calibration method and evaluation regulations for coating thickness measurement according to guideline SSPC-
PA2 of the Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC), calibration method 2 Foils is used ISO 19840 Preconfigured batch template with settings (partly customizable), calibration method and evaluation regulations for coating thickness measurement according to standard ISO 19840, calibration method 2 Foils is used AS 3894.3 Preconfigured batch template with settings (partly customizable), calibration method and evaluation regulations for coating thickness measurement according to Australian stan-
dards AS 2331.1.4 and AS 3894.3-B, calibration method 1 Foil is used SIS 184160 Preconfigured batch template with settings (partly customizable), calibration method and evaluation regulations for coating thickness measurement according to Swedish standard SIS 184160, calibration method 2 Foils is used Batch Template Packages Only available for gage variant High Industrial Corrosion Only available for gage variant High Metrological Standard Functions Measurement Tasks Batch Block creation Tolerance limits/Nominal thickness Offset value/Correction value Measurement reading acquistion File containing all metrological function settings and the linking to calibration necessary for the measurement task as well as the measured readings and evaluations Measured readings grouped in measurement blocks Adjustable, depending on the selected batch type for the gage variant High Adjustable, is deducted automatically from the measured reading. Thus, one obtains the thickness of the top coating if for instance the interim coating is known. Automatic upon placement of the gage probe 11 MMS Inspection DFT Metrological Standard Functions Measurement Tasks Measurement reading storage Measurement units Measurement modes On/Off switchable m/mm or mils/inches Single reading mode After each placing of the gage probe the measuring reading is displayed and stored automati-
cally. Free running mode After placing the gage probe the continuous display of the measured readings appears without automatic storage. Useful for quick checking of coating thicknesses over a defined surface area, e.g. in tank construction. Scan mode The Scan Mode allows a defined recording of the measurement acquisition while the probe is moving over the surface. You can set the number of measured values and the time interval for the measured value acquisition in the gage. Useful to determine the coating thickness over surface areas. Low (up to 1 decimal place), Medium (up to 2 decimal places), High (up to 3 decimal places) During measurement, the air reference value is used to reference the zero point determination. Regular measurement of the air reference value is necessary to achieve high measurement accu-
racy. Automatic capture of the air value always when the gage probe is lifted from the surface. For a correct measurement of the coating thickness, the gage must record the properties (per-
meability, electrical conductivity, geometry) of the test piece. This adjustment is carried out by a calibration. A calibration is specified by the reference specimen (comparable in shape, material, permeability/electrical conductivity to the test piece) and by the foil standards used (calibration method). Flexible Adjustment of the gage to geometrical form and base material of the test piece: Zero point determination and adjustment to up to two coating thickness values by using calibration foils. On recalibration, the individual calibration steps can be skipped. Zero Adjustment of the gage to the base material and the geometry shape of the test piece 1 Foil Adjustment of the gage to test piece: Adjustment to a coating thickness value by using 1 calibration foil (especially for measurement tasks in the corrosion field) 2 Foil Adjustment of the gage to test piece: Adjustment to 2 coating thickness values by using 2 calibration foils (especially for measurement tasks in the corrosion field) Zero + 1 Foil Adjustment of the gage to the base material and the geometry shape of the test piece:

ings themselves are saved in a file. Such a file is called a batch. In the batch, you define the measure-
ment procedure, e.g. whether the specification limits are to be moni-
tored during the measurement or whether the measurement readings are to be grouped in measurement block. In addition, you must assign a calibration (reference) to the batch in order to measure. 3 steps to the measurement 1. Switch on the gage,

ables:
Physical characteristics of the base material of the sample, such as mag-
netizability (permeability) or electrical conductivity. The geometric shape of the sample, such as the thickness of the base ma-
terial or curvature of the sample (e.g. cylindrical shape). The position of the measurement location on the sample: distance from the edge, hole, platform or step. Surface roughness To ensure the coating thickness is measured correctly, the gage records the properties of the Sample. This is done by means of a calibration (device cali-
bration based on a calibration method). The influencing variables are record-
ed using an uncoated reference part and one or two calibration foils in order to compensate the influences for future measurements. Please observe the following information Make sure that the measuring point on the reference part has roughly the same position as on the sample to be actually measured (curvature, dis-
tance from the edge, hole, platform and step). Generally, the base material of your sample will have different material properties than those that were taken into account in the factory calibra-
tion. For this reason, it is essential to perform the calibration with uncoated reference parts from your own production (respect batch)! Note that a ma-
terial from different batches can have different magnetic permeabilities!
If measurements are to be performed on both base materials (magnetiz-
able, non-magnetizable), the calibration must be performed using both base materials (FE and NF)!
Perform the calibration carefully! This is the measure for the accuracy to which the following measurements can be performed. - Measurements can never be more accurate than the calibration!
MMS Inspection DFT High 25 n 7.1 Calibration - When necessary?
o i t a r b i l a C When you have a new measuring application, the influencing factors must be recorded in order to compensate for them when measuring. Recalibration - When necessary?
When the correctness of the measurement is not assured 7.2 Selecting the appropriate calibration method A measurement can only be performed if a calibration using the appropriate calibration method is assigned to the batch in the gage. A calibration method is assigned to each batch type. Selection of the batch type and the associated calibration method is based on the requirements of the guideline/standard or the accuracy of measurement needed. You can find the associated calibration and calibration method in the batch information for the particular batch. Open the batch information: Main Menu > Batch Modify > Batch Infos. A calibration method guides you through the calibration procedure step by step. The following calibration methods are available in the gage:
Calibration methods Flexibel (Calibration steps Zero and up to two time Foil) The same routine as Zero + 2 Foils, but in this routine you can skip indi-
vidual calibration steps Zero (zero point, calibration step Zero) This is the simplest type of calibration and is used to adjust the gage to a reference point, the base material, also called Zero (zero point). The measurement is taken on a reference part that has the same material and shape as the uncoated sample to be tested. It utilizes only the sample's base material (magnetizable or non-magnetizable, depending on the test method used), i.e. without the coating material to be measured. Zero + 1 Foil (calibration steps Zero and one time Foil) A calibration with a calibration foil yields the best measurement accuracy in a narrow coating thickness range around the stated film thickness. The 26 MMS Inspection DFT High calibration method using 1 foil can be used only in the lower measure-
ment range of the gage. Foil thicknesses that can be used:
Measurements on Fe1 base material: max. 800 m (31.5 mils) Measurements on NF2 base material: max. 1150 m (45.3 mils) n o i t a r b i l a C Zero + 2 Foil (calibration steps Zero and two times Foil) On the one hand, a calibration with 2 calibration foils yields the best measurement accuracy in the coating thickness range delimited by the two calibration foils; on the other, however, 2 calibration foils are needed to calibrate the upper measurement range of the gage. To calibrate the upper measurement range of the gage, you need to use the following foil pairs:
Measurements on Fe1 base material:
Foil 1: 350 m, foil 2: 700 m Measurements on NF2 base material:
Foil 1: 750 m, foil 2: 1150 m 1 Foil (calibration steps (Zero and) one time Foil), in Enhanced gage variants, only available with corrosion batch template package upgrade The same routine as Zero + 1 Foil, but the zero measurement step will skipped when recalibrating. Useful for calibrations on rough surfaces, e.g. in the corrosion protection region. 2 Foil (calibration steps (Zero and) two times Foil) in Enhanced gage variants, only available with corrosion batch template package upgrade The same routine as Zero + 2 Foil, but the zero measurement step can will skipped when recalibrating. Useful for calibrations on rough surfaces, e.g. in the corrosion protection region. 1. Fe = FE = Ferromagnetic material, e.g.: iron, steel alloys 2. NF = Nonferrous, electrically conducting material, e.g.: Al, Cu, Ms, MMS Inspection DFT High 27 n 7.3 Performing a calibration o i t a r b i l a C Do not use the metal sheet (NF/FE or ISO/NF) supplied with the gage as a reference part! As a rule, the material properties will not correspond to the uncoated sample/reference part from your own production! The metal plates serve purely as a function check!
Calibration on NF base material (applies only to FE+NF gage types): The difference between the reference part temperature during the calibration and the sample temperature during the measurement should be minimal. Excessive temperature differences have an adverse effect on the measure-
ment accuracy. Be carefully with the calibration foils. Replace soiled, bent, scratched or cracked calibration foils or those with strong indentations. In particular foils with thicknesses of less than 50 m are subject to rapid wear. Recom-
mendation: Replace the calibration foils after no more than 100 to 200 measurements!
Before you start The gage is switched on The protective probe cap has been removed Reference part and/or calibration foils are ready. Which parts you need depends on the calibration method used.

In this regard, refer to the descriptions in the sections "Calibration step Zero", page 30 and "Calibration step Foil", page 32. Acknowledging (OK) the last calibration step exits the calibration routine automatically and the calibration is completed. If the Quick function (quick recalibration) is enabled, the calibration rou-
tine switches automatically to the next calibration step after 3 measure-
ments. A correction/change for the calibration foil used is not possible when this function is enabled. If measurements are to be carried out on both base materials (magnetiz-
able, non-magnetizable), repeat the calibration with the other base mate-
rial!
7.3.3 Fast recalibration A semi-automatic calibration routine for calibration is activated with the Quick function. If the Quick function is enabled, the calibration routine switches au-
tomatically to the next calibration step after every 3 measurements. Switching to the next step is announced by a long signal tone.

evant to measuring the coating thickness of a coated sample and the measure-
ment readings themselves are saved in a file. Such a file is called a batch in the gage. In the batch, you define the measurement procedure, e.g. whether the specification limit is to be monitored during the measurement or whether the measurement readings are to be logged in measurement block groups. The batch file is assigned to a Calibration method and the link to the Calibration to which the measurements are referenced is saved. Different preconfigured batch files identified as Batch types are available in the gage. Batch type Each batch type is assigned a certain Calibration method and contains some presets for the measurement procedure. The configuration of a batch type de-
pends on the requirements of the guideline/standard and required measure-
ment accuracy, which is determined by the calibration method. Calibration A calibration is a reference measurement during which the material properties and geometric shape of the Sample are recorded and saved in a calibration file, separate from the Batch. In order to measure, it is absolutely essential that a calibration has been assigned to a batch. Calibration foil see under Calibration standards Calibration method The calibration method is a predefined calibration procedure. This procedure determines the measurement accuracy for subsequent measurements. A cali-
bration method consists of one or a combination of both of the following cali-
bration steps:

MMS Inspection DFT High 47 s 11 Legal Informations n o i t a m r o f n I l a g e L In this chapter you will find all statements on country-specific regulations and directives 11.1 USA, FCC (Federal Communications Commission) FCC ID: 2ATFE-MMSINSPEC00 FCC Regulations This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment gen-
erates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interfer-
ence to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be re-
quired to correct the interference at his own expense. This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this de-
vice does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-
aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following mea-
sures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help 48 MMS Inspection DFT High s n o i t a m r o f n I l a g e L Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsi-
ble for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equip-
ment. Information about Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States. During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage near the body. Although the SAR is determined at the high-
est certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the Device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model Device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model Device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2ATFE- MMSINSPEC00. For this device, the highest reported SAR value for near the body is 0.001134 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government require-
ments. MMS Inspection DFT High 49 www.helmut-fischer.com Coating Thickness Material Analysis Nanoindentation Material Testing

ture and humidity to determine the dew point and the difference between sur-
face temperature and dew point. You can log all these climate factors over a prolonged period and emit an optical warning if specification limits are ex-
ceeded. The following factors are measured: air temperature (Ta), relative humidity
(%RH) and surface temperature (Ts) From the measured factors, the dew point (Td) and the difference between sur-
face temperature and dew point (Ts-Td) are calculated. All measured and calculated climate factors are saved simultaneously (manu-
ally or continuously). t n e m e r u s a e M Notes on measuring Measurement errors Measurement errors occur if ambient air cannot flow through the housing grille in the lower area of the gage!
Keep the housing grille in the lower area of the gage clear. Avoid covering with hands, mate-
rial or other objects. Allow ambient air to flow unhindered through the housing grille in the lower area of the gage. Observe the instructions for handling the gage during a measurement, described in Chapter
"Correctly holding the gage during the measurement" on page 21 Measured readings outside the specification limits are displayed in red and indicated by an illuminated red LED. The probes for air tempera-
ture und relative humidity are protected by the hous-
ing grille The gage vibrates during measurement acquisition if this is activated in the gage settings. MMS Inspection DPM High 19 t 6.1 Before you start n e m e r u s a e M The gage is switched on (

evant to the measurement and the measured readings themselves are saved in a file. In the gage such a file is called a batch. In a batch, you define the mea-
suring application and settings for the measurement procedure, e.g. specifica-
tion limit and alarm monitoring for certain factors during the measurement. Measuring application A measuring application is determined by requirements in directives/stan-
dards and according to customer specifications. In accordance with these re-
quirements, the measurement settings are saved in a batch in the gage. If the requirements and hence the measurement settings change, there is a new mea-
suring application and you have to create a new Batch. Coefficient of variation V [%]
Percent variation of a series of measurements, i. e. standard deviation in terms of the mean value. V [%] is a characteristic process constant. A sudden change in V [%] indi-
cates a change in process conditions. 28 MMS Inspection DPM High y r a s s o G l 9.1 Glossary - Display symbols Batches menu, contains a list of already created batches and the New function for creating a new batch.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment gen-
erates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interfer-
ence to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be re-
quired to correct the interference at his own expense. This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this de-
vice does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-
aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following mea-
sures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

ble for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equip-
ment. Information about Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States. During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage near the body. Although the SAR is determined at the high-
est certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the Device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model Device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model Device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2ATFE- MMSINSPEC00. For this device, the highest reported SAR value for near the body is 0.001134 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government require-
ments. 34 MMS Inspection DPM High www.helmut-fischer.com www.helmut-fischer.com Coating Thickness Material Analysis Nanoindentaion Material Testing

The SPG gages measure the peak-to-valley distances according ASTM D4417, Method B. Therefore, measurements of the depths of surface profiles by using the SPG gages are conform to many standards and guidances, e.g., SSPC-PA17. Ideal for onsite applications (outside and inside) due to the compact size and the robust and durable instrument design Probe integrated in the gage for single-handed operation IP65, dust-tight and water repellant and resistant A large touchdown table ensures a sure positioning on the surface Intuitive operation of the menu navigation and graphic display The measurement presentation flips automatically and thus allows optimum reading in dif-

ple1 and the measured readings themselves are saved in a file. Such a file is called a batch. In the batch, you define the measure-
ment procedure, e.g. whether the specification limit is to be monitored during the measurement or whether the measured readings are to be logged in measurement block groups. The batch is always assigned the cal-
ibration 001 as a reference. 3 steps to the measurement 1. Switch on the gage, 2. Open a batch or create a new one Opening a batch, see page 21 Creating a new batch, see page 20 3. Take a measurement on the sample, see Page 22 If the specified precision is not achieved during the measure-

In a batch, you define the measuring application and settings for the measurement procedure, e.g. specification limit monitoring or grouping of measured readings in measurement blocks during the measurement. The link to the Calibration 001, to which the measurements are referenced, is also saved in the batch file.

An adjustment to the corresponding profile height value is performed for each calibration foil thickness. y r a s s o G l Calibration A calibration is a reference measurement, which adjusts the gage to the two extreme values of zero and "maximum height" (air value). You can run the cal-
ibration with up to 2 calibration shims (from the scope of supply). Calibration method The calibration method is a predefined calibration procedure. This procedure determines the measurement accuracy for subsequent measurements. A cali-
bration method consists of one or a combination of both of the following cali-
bration steps:
Calibration zero: Measurements on the glass plate from the scope of supply Calibration foil: Measurements on the calibration shim, which lies directly on the glass plate. Required material: Calibration shims from the scope of supply. The hole in the calibration shim (foil) marks the specified measuring area. Measuring application A measuring application can be characterized not only by the measurement location or the Sample, but also by the measuring settings, e.g. limit monitor-
ing and measured reading grouping. If any one of these parameters changes, there is a new measuring application and you have to create a new Batch. Sample Large surface with several measurement locations Part of any size Specimen see under Calibration standards Coefficient of variation V [%]
Percentage scatter of a series of measurements, i. e. standard deviation from the mean value. V [%] is a characteristic process constant.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment gen-
erates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interfer-
ence to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be re-
quired to correct the interference at his own expense. This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this de-
vice does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-
aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following mea-
sures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help MMS Inspection SPG High 45 s n o i t a m r o f n I l a g e L Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsi-
ble for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equip-
ment. Information about Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States. During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage near the body. Although the SAR is determined at the high-
est certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the Device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model Device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model Device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2ATFE- MMSINSPEC00. For this device, the highest reported SAR value for near the body is 0.001134 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government require-
ments. 46 MMS Inspection SPG High www.helmut-fischer.com www.helmut-fischer.com Coating Thickness Material Analysis Nanoindentaion Material Testing

HELMUT FISCHER GMBH INSTITUT FR ELEKTRONIK UND MESSTECHNIK Industriestrae 21 71069 Sindelfingen Germany Phone: +49 (0) 70 31 / 3 03 0 Fax: +49 (0) 70 31 / 3 03 710 Difference between the following three variants MMS-Inspection DFT MMS-Inspection SPG MMS-Inspection DPM FCC ID: 2ATFE-MMSINSPEC00 To whom it may concern:
Date:
04.09.2019 This document is intended to indicate the differences between the three variants and why do all these devices share the same FCC ID. This is a modular platform which consists of a Display unit and a Measurement unit. The Display unit contains the communication interfaces (USB, WIFI, and BT) with output de-
vices. This Display unit is shared between all the three variants. That means that the same PCB in the Display Unit is being used for all variants. The Display unit communi-
cates over a digital interface (UART) with all measurement units which are fix integrated to the device. The measurement units of the SPG and DFT are the same regarding the electrical parts where DPM differs regarding the analogue part. Sincerely Hardware Development Dipl.-Ing.
