- Weka Sensorer: Gently place the sensor's stylus tip onto the surface to be measured. Ensure stable contact.
- Anza Kipimo: Bonyeza kwa NGUVU ANZA button to initiate the measurement. The sensor will traverse the surface.
- View Matokeo: Once the measurement is complete, the results will be displayed on the screen, including numerical values and graphical profiles (Bearing area curve, Roughness profile, Primary profile).
4.3 Data Management and Connectivity
The AMT211 allows for calculation results, assessed profiles, bearing, and amplitude curves to be displayed. It can be easily connected to a PC or printer for data analysis and reporting.
- Uunganisho wa PC: Use the provided USB cable to connect the device to a computer. Data can be transferred for further analysis.
- Muunganisho wa Bluetooth: The device supports Bluetooth connectivity, allowing it to connect to a mobile phone via a dedicated app for data viewing and control. Enable Bluetooth in the "System Setting" menu (Figure 4.2).
5. Matengenezo
5.1 Kusafisha
Regularly clean the exterior of the main unit with a soft, dry cloth. For the sensor and stylus, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to gently remove any dust or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
5.2 Utunzaji wa Betri
Kuongeza maisha ya betri:
- Epuka kutoa betri kikamilifu mara kwa mara.
- Hifadhi kifaa mahali pa baridi, kavu wakati haitumiki kwa muda mrefu.
- Charge the battery periodically if stored for a long time to prevent deep discharge.
5.3 Stylus Tip Care
The stylus tip is a delicate component. Handle with care to prevent damage. If the stylus tip appears worn or damaged, contact AMTAST support for replacement options to ensure measurement accuracy.
