SPI 20-186-3 Operating instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the operation manual for the SPI Digital Height Gage and Digital Indicator Probes. This document details the features of these instruments, including their large LCD displays, inch/metric conversion capabilities, and SPC/USB data output. It also covers their absolute encoder technology and IP54 protection of the probes. I'm ready to answer any questions you might have about these devices and their operation.
  • What is the resolution of the height gage?
    What is the function of the Origin button?
    What is the purpose of the Preset button?
