Wet/dry indicator
12
In addition to the measured value, a moisture evaluation will be displayed
by the wet/dry indicator in the display. This indicator is tuned by the mate-
rial characteristics (A, B, C; 01, 02, 03, 04) stored in the measuring device.
This evaluation is subdivided into 5 steps and it makes an evaluation of
the measured material easier. The display is to be considered as a
general indication and not a nal evaluation.

Index mode
Index mode is used to rapidly locate moisture with comparative mea-
surements, without a direct output of material moisture in %. The out-
put value (0 through 1000) is an indexed value that increases as mate-
rial moisture becomes greater. Measurements made in index mode are
independent of material type and particularly useful with materials for
which no characteristics are stored. When comparative measurements
reveal strongly deviating values, the course of moisture in the material
can be localized quickly.
In addition to those materials with characteristics stored in the measuring
device, index mode makes it possible to measure other building materials
(05 ... 19), refer to the table at the right. The displayed value (0 through
1000) serves as the basis. Activate index mode in your measuring device
(Step 13b). In order to determine the degree of moisture in a type of
building material, rst nd the material number for the building material
to be measured. Following this, read the measured value from the scale
displayed on the measuring device for index mode. Now determine the
value for the corresponding material number in the table. If this value has
a dark grey background, the material is to be classi ed as „wet", values
without coloured background are considered to be „dry".
Programmable wet/dry indicator in index mode

The wet/dry indicator can be programmed to the already prede ned values especially for index mode. This
produces a new setting for the „wet" and „dry" threshold value (see arrows).
