1. BASICS / INTRODUCTION

The new BlueSYSTEM is a continuous further enhancement of the well known and well established measuring instruments MINILEVEL NT + LEVELTRONIC NT with or without wireless data transmission. A BlueSYSTEM normally consists of one or two measuring instruments BlueLEVEL and a display unit BlueMETER. Depending on the application the BlueMETER can also be connected to a PC with evaluation software allowing the online evaluation and presentation of the values.

The BlueSYSTEM is available with or without radio transmission. When using the system with cable connections it is possible to upgrade to wireless transmission at a later stage.

As its predecessor this newest generation of high precision electronic inclination measuring instruments is specifically suitable for the precision measurement of smallest angles. Applications are therefore in particular the measurement of flatness of surface plates or the measurement of the geometry of machine tools. The sensor itself, the heart of every

precision measuring instrument, has been further enhanced as well, to allow precise measurements even under critical environmental conditions.

The new measuring instruments of the BlueSYSTEM family can be used as individual instruments as well as combined in a set. Instead of using a BlueMETER it is also possible to use a BlueTC as an interface to the PC/Laptop. The functions are all the same with the exception of the LCD display which is only available with the BlueMETER.

The BlueSYSTEM also forms part of the WyBus. Therefore a wide variety of other WYLER sensors can be integrated in the BlueSYSTEM: For instance the BlueMETER can read the measuring values of ZEROTRONIC sensors or it can serve as a command and adjustment tool for ZEROMATIC sensors.

A set of instruments, also called ENGINEER SET, normally consists of one or two BlueLEVEL(s) and one BlueMETER, forming the ideal tool for measuring flatness and machines under work shop conditions. Furthermore the ENGINEER SET can be used for any levelling task or analysis of rotations.

General remarks:

 The instruments belonging to a measuring group as described below in Pt. 2.4 is already done at WYLER’s

when the instruments are delivered.

 When a group of instruments are shut off e.g. after a measurement is completed, the group set-up remains

saved. When started again, the communication is immediately ready, no additional set-up is required.

 When a group of instruments is extended e.g. by joining or replacing an instrument, this newly added

instrument must be joined accordi ng Pt.2.4 „Combine a group....“

First time start-up of a measuring group (BlueLEVEL and BlueMETER) with radio transmission (wireless transmission of the data):

1. Remove the instruments with care from the transport and storage case and insert the batteries

2. Place the instruments on a clean horizontally aligned surface and switch on the instruments (BlueLEVEL and BlueMETER). Keep the two keys <ON/MODE> and <ZERO/SELECT ±> (BlueLEVEL),

respectively the key <ON/MODE> (BlueMETER) pressed until all 5 LED’s are on. When the keys are released on the display is seen „SYST EM TEST“.

If the keys <ON/MODE> and <ZERO/SELECT ±> (BlueLEVEL), respectively the key <ON/MODE> (BlueMETER) are pressed longer than 10 seconds when STARTING the instrument all the LED’s

are beginning to blink and the automatic shut-off system is deactivated. In the standard mode the instrument is automatically shut off after 60 minutes.

3. The instruments are now communicating and after a few seconds the measured values are displayed. The battery power should be checked (see below)

4. The measuring task may now be started.

2.4 COMBINE A GROUP OF INSTRUMENTS USING THE FUNCTION "JOIN"

The function "JOIN" enables the grouping of instruments. The grouping prevents the accidental reading of measuring values from

instruments of another measuring group. The function "JOIN" can be performed using the cable connection or with wireless data

transmission. The function "JOIN" joins all the instruments connected to a group.

Previously used groupings are cancelled. For the function "JOIN" in wireless mode only one instrument can be added to the group at a time. No instruments must

be connected by cables at the same time.

2.4.1 PROCEDURE "JOIN" WITH CABLE-CONNECTION

1. Connect all instruments (BlueLEVEL and BlueMETER) to be joined to a group with the cables provided and switch on all the instruments

2. Select on the BlueMETER the menu "JOIN" using the <ON/MODE> key. Confirm with the <ENTER> key. All instruments connected are now searched and joined to a group.

3. After establishing the group a "REFRESH" will be performed.

4. After the grouping the command "SENSOR" will be performed. As the measuring mode is still to be defined, the message "not-defined" will be displayed

5. The measuring mode ("A", "B" or "A-B" must now be selected. Select the mode preferred using the <ZERO/SELECT> keys (corresponding to the menu [SENSOR]) and confirm with <ENTER>

It is also possible to execute any other function of the menu. For instance it is possible to integrate with further "JOIN" commands additional instruments with wireless connection into the group

6. The sensors must be selected. Select the sensors for A and - depending on the measuring mode - also for B using the <ZERO/SELECT> keys and confirm with <ENTER>. The measuring values are now shown in the

display according to the selected configuration.

7. After a successful grouping on both instruments the green LED "READY" will blink shortly as many times as instruments are joined in the measuring group (including the own address)

8. For using the wireless mode (the wireless mode must be switched-on on each instrument) the cables can now be removed. After removing the cables the measuring values will be "freezed" for a short while and replaced by

empty zeroes until, after successful connection, the measuring values will be displayed again

Remark: After successful connection the blue LED "LINK" will be lighting on all the instruments connected.

Seite 10 von 100

2.4.2 PROCEDURE "JOIN" WITH WIRELESS DATA TRANSMISSION

With the function "JOIN" an instrument can be added by wireless data transmission to an existing group. During this procedure no instrument must be connected by cables as otherwise the "JOIN" procedure for cables will be performed.

IMPORTANT: Only two instruments can be grouped in one procedure. If more instruments are members of a measuring group,

e.g. a BlueLEVEL "1", a BlueLEVEL "2" and a BlueMETER it is recommended to group first the BlueLEVEL "1" with the

BlueMETER and then the BlueLEVEL"2" also with the BlueMETER. The affiliation to the measuring group will be

communicated between the members. The two instruments to be grouped must be set to the JOIN-

mode. The <ON/MODE> key must be pressed repeatedly until the mode [JOIN] appears in the display. Confirm with <ENTER>

Searching

1. Both instruments are "searching" each other. During the searching procedure the green LED on both instruments

are lit continuously. The instruments remain in the "search" mode until they have detected each other.

During the search process the following picture will be displayed:

Remark: The searching process may go on for several minutes in bad communication conditions.

2. Group connection As soon as the two instruments have successfully detected each other the search process is stopped and this is

visual ised by a rapid blinking (4 to 5 times per second) of the green LED’s on both instruments.. The j oining can

no be activated by

- using the <ENTER> key on one of the instruments or

- the whole process may be cancelled by pressing the <ON/MODE> key.

3. After establishing the group a "REFRESH" will be performed.

4. After the grouping the command "SENSOR" will be performed. As the measuring mode has been cancelled during the JOIN procedure this mode must be selected again. The message "not-defined" will be displayed

5. The measuring mode ("A", "B" or "A-B" must now be selected. Select the mode preferred using the <ZERO/SELECT> keys (corresponding to the menu [SENSOR]) and confirm with <ENTER>

It is also possible to execute any other function of the menu. For instance it is possible to integrate with further "JOIN" commands additional instruments with wireless connection into the group

7. After a successful grouping on both instruments the blue LED "LINK" will be lit continuously. The green LED "READY" will blink shortly as many times as instruments are joined in the measuring group (including the own address)

Attention: If the LED "OFF" is blinking in red, a connection is not possible (see chapter 2.4.2 / special case)

Seite 11 von 100

2.4.3 SPECIAL CASES “JOIN”

In case both instruments are already joined in different groups of instruments they do find each other but they can not communicate together. The red LED “OFF” is blinking. The search process may be cancelled by usi ng the key <ON/MODE> or <ENTER>

If it is required to use one of the instruments in the new measurement group it is necessary to use the mode “LEAVE” to

cancel the existing connection.

2.5 UNHINGE AN INSTRUMENT IN THE RADIO MODE FROM A GROUP BY USING THE FUNCTION „LEAVE“

Each instrument may be unhinged from an existing group of connected instruments.

PROCEDURE „LEAVE“

1. If BlueLEVEL instruments are transmitting measuring values to a BlueMETER or a BlueTC, the keys on the BlueLEVELs are locked. To unlock a BlueLEVEL, the settings at the BlueMETER have to be changed in such a way it no longer communicates with this BlueLEVEL.

2. The instruments to be disconnected must be set to the mode LEAVE. The <ON/MODE> key must repeatedly be pressed until in the display shows the mode [LEAVE]. Confirm with <ENTER>

3. During the leaving mode the blue LED is blinking under “LINK”, the green LED “READY” is not blinking respectively off.

4. After the successful procedure the green LED is blinking once for approx. 1 second. With this the unhinge process is finished.

2.6 RENEWED CONNECTION OF A MEASURING GROUP

After a measuring group has been stopped e.g. after the termination of a measurement, the group of instruments remains intact. After the restart the communication is automatically activated and the communication is started. The process JOIN must not be repeated.

APPENDIX

A BASICS AND GENERAL REMARKS ABOUT BLUESYSTEM AND INCLINATION MEASUREMENT

A1 INTRODUCTION TO THE BLUESYSTEM

normally consists of one or two measuring instruments BlueLEVEL and an indication unit BlueMETER. Depending on the application The BlueMETER can also be connected to a PC with evaluation software allowing the online evaluation and presentation of the values.

The BlueSYSTEM is available with or without radio transmission. When using the system with cable connections it is possible to upgrade to wireless transmission at a later stage

the heart of every precision measuring instrument, has been further enhanced as well, to allow precise measurements even under critical environmental conditions.

The key features of these new series of instruments are:

 Compact and pleasant design which is functionally optimized for precision measurement  Wireless data transmission based on the internationally approved Bluetooth™-standard  Complete new sensor design  Sensor as well as amplifying electronic fully sealed and encapsulated in inert gas  Increased temperature stability  Increased long term stability  Large and well readable LCD display

 Display can be read from both sides since the handle can be rotated  Each instrument has its own specific address allowing the use of several independent systems in the same

room without interfering with each other

 Since each instrument has a built in IR receiver, the measurement can be initiated at any instrument  Compatible to existing measuring bases

 One range only in every instrument  There are three different BlueLEVEL types available

o BlueLEVEL 1 µm/m: Range ±20mm/m o BlueLEVEL 5 µm/m: Range ±100mm/m o BlueLEVEL 10 µm/m: Range ±200mm/m

 Linearity throughout the measuring range according to DIN 2276  All instruments are equipped with RS 232 / RS 422 / RS 485 interfaces  Powered by standard 1.5 V batteries type “C”  In compliance with CE regulations and other applicable EMC regulations

PC/Laptop. The functions are all the same with the exception of the LCD display which is only available with the BlueMETER.

A set of instruments, also called ENGINEER SET, normally consists of one or two BlueLEVEL and one BlueMETER, forming the ideal tool for measuring flatness and machines under work shop conditions. Furthermore the ENGINEER SET can be used for any levelling task or analysis of rotations.

Seite 51 von 100

Configuration with BlueMETER

Configuration with BlueTC

The ENGINEER SET is specifically adapted to the needs of the metrology specialist taking care of machine tool components. There is a broad range of applications due to the possibility to use differential measurement. The system is universally applicable for inclination and for rotational measurements Thanks to its outstanding features and to the special transportation case the ENGINEER SET can be used in-house or be taken along to customers.

A2 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CONFIGURATION WITH BLUEMETER AND BLUETC

Basically two configurations are possible. The instruments as well as the display (BlueMETER) or interface (BlueTC) components are available with or without radio transmission.

I. Communication from instrument to external display via cable.

This conventional type of communication uses cables between the various components (BlueMETER, respectively BlueTC).

II. Communication from the instruments to the external display or to the interface via radio

transmission. Using this type of configuration the data transmission is by radio module between the instruments and the BlueMETER or BlueTC. As a back-up system additional cables are also supplied.

Remarks:

For a surcharge it is possible to upgrade a set delivered with cables at a later stage to the radio transmission module.

Difference between BlueMETER and BlueTC:

The functions of BlueMETER and BlueTC are all the same with the exception of the LCD display which is only available with the BlueMETER. When working without PC/Laptop it is not possible to display the difference between two instruments on the BlueTC. When working with a PC/Laptop and the software LEVELSOFT PRO or MT-SOFT the BlueTC is used as interface. The use of a BlueTC makes therefore only sense in combination with a PC/Laptop or when the difference between two instruments is not important to measure.

A5 BASIC SETUP OF THE INCLINATION MEASURING INSTRUMENTS / PLUS - MINUS RULE

Inclined to the right: positive Declined to the right: negative

(Practical remark: positive values indicate that some material may be removed on the measured piece)

IMPORTANT:

 Touch the instruments only at the

handle (Temperature!!!)

 Measuring from left to right and from

close to far.

 Cable in measuring

direction

The instrument should always be placed in a way that the cable output is on the right hand side.

Before starting the measurement enough acclimatisation time must be allowed for the instruments. Place the instrument carefully to the required measuring spot. (Surface) and read the value on the BlueMETER or

on the integrated display of the BlueLEVEL. It is important to measure always in the direction of the cable connector, respectively the cable.

Example: Flatness measurement of a surface plate

A6 ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT / RELATIVE MEASUREMENT / DIFFERENTIAL MEASUREMENT

Position defined of the vertical spindle in relation to the machine table of a machine tool.

Measurement with WYLER- software MT-SOFT

Flatness measurement with

WYLER-software LEVELSOFT PRO

Absolute measurement

(Absolute ZERO) Condition for the absolute measurement is the performing of a reversal measurement

for determining the absolute zero (to the centre of the earth) After this procedure the instrument will display the effective deviation from the centre of

gravity. This means the value is an absolute angle of the measured surface.

Example: if the object to be measured is absolutely level, the display is "0" Practical example

Relative measurement

(Relative ZERO) A number of measurements do not require the absolute ZERO as described above.

Example: Angular deviation between two objects. (Lines, surfaces, guide ways) The

measurement instrument is placed on an object and the displayed value is changed to "0". Then the instrument is relocated to a second object and the displayed value of the angle is the angular difference between the two surfaces. If the display is also "0", then both surfaces are parallel.

Most important is that always the instrument is placed on both positions in the same direction.

Practical example

Seite 58 von 100

Differential measurement

Flatness measurement with

WYLER-software LEVELSOFT PRO

A differential measurement is a measurement with two instruments Measuring instrument (A) and

Reference instrument (B), measuring the angular

difference between the two. This means e.g. if the angular change in both instruments is the same the

displayed value (Difference A - B) does not change. In principle this is a special relative measurement.

In the following measuring tasks the differential measurement is especially used

Example: Measuring the flatness of a machine bed. The reference instrument is placed

Practical example

 Measurement on object with vibrations imposed.  Measurements on unstable systems or objects

on a stable part of the machine where the measurement is not interfered. With the measuring instrument the measurement is taking place without removing the reference instrument.

Seite 59 von 100

A7 GENERAL REMARKS ABOUT “ANGLES” AND “INCLINATION”

Every angle may be defined in different ways. The most popular way is a definition

in Degrees / Minutes / Seconds. This is shown in the graph.

Such a definition is especially useful for larger angles.

With an angular measuring instrument not only an angle may be measured but also the height of a certain point over a defined base length can be calculated. (for a profile of a line or a surface). Due to this simple and reliable method a number of tasks are possible, especially for measuring guide ways and surface plates definition.

Angle  = Height of the measuring point related to a defined

base.

Height of the measuring point = tan  x length of base

Example:

Angle = Height related to a defined base. e.g. 22 µm/m

Example: Because the relation µm/m is 1/1'000'000 the same

relation can also be applied to micro inch/inch Angle = Height related to a defined base.

e.g.

22 µm/m are equal to 22 micro inch/inch or 22 µInch / Inch

A9 ZERO SETTING BY REVERSAL MEASUREMENT (ABSOLUTE ZERO)

Reversal measurement for determining

I. Zero point deviation of the instrument Nm

II. Inclination of the measured surface Np

Zero point deviation of the instrument Nm:

Inclination of the measured surface Np

Using the reversal measurement is a simple way to determine the exact zero point deviation of the instrument (which can thus be compensated) as well as the exact inclination of the surface the instrument is placed

Practical procedure:

Prior to adjusting the zero point, the BlueLEVEL instrument should be allowed time to acquire the ambient, respectively the work-piece temperature. In addition the measuring system should be switched on for at least 1 minute (at least 3 minutes for instruments with sensitivity 1 µm/m

The reversal measurement can be done with the help of the BlueMETER or directly using the BlueLEVEL.

- Slide the instrument onto a flat, horizontally levelled surface (e.g. engineer's surface plate).

- The position of the instrument is to be marked on the surface.

- Use the key <ON/MODE> to get to the menu point [ABS.ZERO] and confirm with <ENTER> The following display is seen:

Seite 62 von 100

- Use the zapper or confirm with <ENTER>. On the display the progress of the collected values are visible in graphic form.

When the curve is getting a straight line confirm the first value with the zapper or with <ENTER>

- After the first reading the following display is seen:

This display means the first reading was successful. The instrument must be turned 180 degrees without lifting it and slid exactly onto the previously marked position

- Use the zapper or confirm with <ENTER>. On the display the progress of the collected values are again visible in graphic form.

When the curve is getting a straight line confirm again the second value with the zapper or with <ENTER>

- After the second reading the following display is seen:

With this the reversal measurement is finished and the instrument shows the true absolute value.

B APPLICATIONS

Picture:

Two BlueLEVEL and one BlueMETER

B1 MEASURING ABSOLUTE

Zero point is to be set by reversal measurement. Now the BlueLEVEL/BlueMETER will read deviations from absolute horizontal position.

Using BlueLEVEL with a BlueMETER the value of the display is shown in [Arcsec] or in [mm/m].

B2 RELATIVE MEASUREMENT

It is not always required to set the instrument to zero by reversal measurement (absolute ZERO). If e.g. the straightness of a line is measured most of the time only the

relative straightness is required. The same applies when lines, parallels, flatness is measured with the WYLER

LEVELSOFT PRO. These are relative measurements.

Using the machine tool software MT-SOFT an absolute measurement is important because different elements of a machine tool must be compared even at a later stage of

the measurement. E.g. the horizontal guide way must be compared to the vertical axis of the spindle. Only when the measurement is done in absolute mode such a

comparison is possible.

B3 DIFFERENTIAL RESPECTIVELY REFERENCE MEASUREMENT USING AN ENGINEER SET

Such a differential measurement, mostly done with an engineer set (two BlueLEVEL and one BlueMETER), is useful or necessary if some of the following cases:

 Measurement on objects with vibrations imposed  The inclination of the object to be measured will change by the weight of the instrument  The floor is unstable (heavy loads in the close surroundings  The relative pitch and roll on a machine must be measured

The Engineer set usually consists of:

Connecting the instruments performing a differential measurement

 One of the instruments is used as measuring instrument and the other as reference instrument.  The measuring instrument is connected to port "A" the reference instrument to port "B".  Both instruments must be placed looking in the same direction.

Examples for differential / reference measurement:

M = Measuring instrument, connected to port "A" R = Reference instrument, connected to port "B"

Rectangularity resp. parallelism of machine spindle in resp. to work table (Fig. 7).

For precise square measurements an angular model fitted with magnets in the vertical face should be used. (Elimination of deformation due to manual pressure).

Straightness of table motion (Fig. 8) in relation to the machine’s base. The table must be moved step by step and the measured value at each step should be noted/recorded after stabilization only.

Seite 65 von 100

Inspection of perpendicularity and parallelism on large structures (Fig. 9). Suitable instrument for outdoor applications.

To conduct high precision measurements of parallelism (Fig 10) (e.g. two or more guide ways) The reference instrument (R) will compensate for all changes in the objects orientation while measurements are made. Using this method the instrument (sensitivities up to 1 µm/m) allows determination of the exact shape of the guide ways.

Torsion in guide ways and work piece surfaces (Fig 11). The instrument (M) is moved step by step in direction of X, noting the reading at each step after allowing sufficient time for the instrument to settle. (Attention: Measuring

axis have to be parallel!) This procedure is also applied when fastening work pieces in order to see possible tensions.

Seite 66 von 100

B4 ANGULAR MEASUREMENTS

a) Small angles

The measuring instruments BlueLEVEL are especially well suited for measuring small angles. It is however to be considered that the larger the angle is getting, the larger the linearity error of the instrument is. It is therefore

important to level the object to be measured (e.g. surface plate) as well as possible in both axis.

b) 90°-angle (squareness)

For measuring 90° angles (square angles) instruments with an angular base can best be used. Before starting a precision measurement the angular error of the instrument must be determined by reversal measurement on a

suitable object. After the reversal measurement precision measurement with measuring uncertainty of 3 to 5 µm/m is possible. The determination of the instrument's angular error is done as follows:

In the WYLER LEVELSOFT PRO a new set-up allows the easy measurement of squareness of rectangular objects. This software offers a menu point "ANGLES / Measurement of perpendicular objects".

Principal procedure of a 90° measurement with WYLER LEVEL SOFT PRO

The angular error of the instrument must be determined (optional) The measurement follows the required set-up (Step length, number of measurements etc.)

After the measurement the respective lines may be adjusted according to different methods. For the following three methods the angular errors are computed and displayed:

 Method Endpoints  Method ISO1101  Method Linear regression (least square)

Ask your local WYLER representative for further information of the software LEVELSOFT PRO

Seite 67 von 100

B5 LINES AND FLATNESS MEASUREMENT (MANUAL PROCEDURE)

The picture to the left shows the

measurement of a line using a BlueLEVEL combined with a BlueMETER with integrated radio module for wireless data transmission

A principal procedure of a measurement of a line with WYLER instruments is described below:

Example:

 Sensitivity of the instrument 1 µm/m  Length of measuring base 200 mm/ step length 180 mm  The line to be measured must be divided in equal sizes according to the base available (calculated

step length) Overlapping of the steps is important, otherwise measuring errors are inevitable.

 Place the instrument at the begin of the line measurement  Slide the instrument step by step along the line to be measured. Note all the measuring results after

allowing enough settling time. Then the line can be drawn as shown below considering the base len gth and the sensitivity of the instrument.

Measurements on granite surface plates are done with instruments equipped with hardened steel bases with dust groves. The sharp edges prohibit dust particles to get between the plate and the base when sliding the instrument.

The manual measuring and the computing effort is quite big if possible at all and the source of errors large. Such a task is best done with the WYLER LEVELSOFT PRO.

Seite 68 von 100

C WYLER SOFTWARE LEVELSOFT PRO

The following measurements can be done with the WYLER LEVELSOFT PRO in combination with the correct

measuring instruments:

 Lines (straightness)  Lines with twist (torsion)  Parallelism  Rectangularity  Surface flatness  Partial surface flatness

 Measurement on machine tools

Measurement of line according to ISO1101

with and without twist (torsion)

Measurement of parallel lines according

to ISO1101 with and without twist (torsion)

Surface flatness according to ISO 1101

D SOFTWARE FOR THE DEFINITION OF MACHINE TOOL GEOMETRY

The following measurement tasks can be done by using suitable instruments and the WYLER MT-SOFT:

 GUIDE WAYS  ROTATING AXIS  ROTATION OF MACHINE TOOL ELEMENTS  CIRCLES

GUIDE WAYS

Measurement of guide ways using inclination

measuring instruments

ROTATING AXIS

Definition of rectangularity between the surface of the

table and the vertical rotating spindle

ROTATION OF MACHINE TOOL ELEMENTS

Measuring and defining the geometrical roll and pitch errors on a machine tool element moving horizontally

CIRCLES

Flatness measurement and defining the position in

space of circles as well as co planarity of circles.

MACHINE TOOL INSPECTION SOFTWARE MT-SOFT

MT-SOFT gives the possibility to measure individual elements of machine tools with standard inclination measuring

instruments. The measured results can be saved and - at a later stage - used for comparison and put together to receive a thorough result of the over all accuracy of the machine tool. E.g. the horizontal guideway must be

compared to the vertical axis of the spindle. Only when the measurement is done in absolute mode such a comparison is possible. The logical and clear structure of the software makes even the measurement of complex

machines an easy task.

I1 REPAIR OF MEASURING INSTRUMENTS AND DISPLAY UNITS

Normally any instruments requiring repair can be sent to the local WYLER partner (local distributor) who will take the necessary steps and make the arrangements for repair on behalf of the customer.

Express Repair Service, ERS

A large number of customers can not miss the instruments for a longer period as these are in daily operation. For these cases WYLER

SWITZERLAND has created a new service called "Express Repair Service, ERS". Employing this service the transport time from the

user to WYLER SWITZERLAND and back and thus the complete repair time can be reduced considerably.

A simplified description of this service:

 The customer announces the repair request to the local WYLER partner in his country.  The WYLER partner will inform the customer about the possibility of the ERS service outlining the

advantages and consequences of this service, such as e.g.

o reduced total repair time o required acceptance to repair without quote up to 65 % of the price for a new instrument o suitable packing for air transport o expenses of the ERS

 In case the customer decides to use the ERS, the customer informs the local WYLER partner or directly

WYLER SWITZERLAND providing the necessary data.

 The customer will receive all information and instructions necessary for a smooth handling, the customer

has just to pack the product suitably and to fill in a form for the TNT courier service as well as to announce the readiness to the local TNT office for pick-up. Everything else will run automatically.

 Products reaching WYLER SWITZERLAND under this service will be handled with first priority, and the

instrument will be returned using the same carrier.

 The invoicing will be through the WYLER partner in your country.

Please do not hesitate to make use of this service in order to have your WYLER instrument back at your disposal as soon as possible. In case of any questions please contact WYLER SWITZERLAND or your local distributor, we

will gladly help you to use the ERS successfully.

I2 SERVICE- AND MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS

Measuring systems are becoming more and more complex and are therefore subject to continuous supervision in respect of quality and reliability. For this purpose WYLER AG offers the option of a MAINTENANCE CONTRACT

with the purchase of new instruments.

Such a MAINTENANCE CONTRACT offers the following services to the customer:

• Complete inspection and re-adjustment of the instrument / system in a bi-yearly interval.

• The scope of delivery includes an internationally recognised Calibration Certificate

SCS for the entire system confirming the performance after the service intervention.

Traceable certificates SCS are issued according to our accreditation as a calibration laboratory by the Swiss authorities

• Highest priority for any repair works (actual repair work is not included and will be quoted separately)

• Technical enhancements and modifications published by WYLER, if considered suitable

• Costs for packing and transport of the instrument(s) from the customer to WYLER and back, either directly or through the WYLER distribution partner

• Extension of warranty period to 24 months: If a maintenance contract is signed within 6 months of the purchasing of a new instrument the warranty period is extended to 24 month.

Options:

Depending on the customers requirement the re-calibration interval can be shortened (every year) or be extended (every 3rd year)

The following services are excluded from all maintenance contracts:

• The contract does not include any repair work. If it is determined during the inspection or the re-calibration process that the instrument requires repair, such work will be quoted separately to the customer.

We help you to keep your valuable and important instruments always accurate and ready for use!

We would be glad to offer you a maintenance contract adapted to your specific requirements.

J STORAGE OF THE INSTRUMENTS / CARE AND HANDLING OF THE BATTERIES J1 STORAGE OF THE INSTRUMENTS

For storage periods the measuring instrument should be placed in a position in which the instruments are also used when measuring (upright position). Unsuitable storage may result in a longer period of zero creeping due to

overload of the pendulum system.

J2 CARE AND HANDLING OF THE BATTERIES BATTERY REPLACEMENT

BlueLEVEL: 2 pieces 1.5V, Size “C” ALKALINE BlueMETER: 3 pieces 1.5V, Size “C” ALKALINE BlueTC: 2pieces 1.5V, Size “C” ALKALINE

Read the instructions in your manual before installing batteries. Make sure to insert the batteries properly, following the symbols showing you the correct way to position the positive (+) and negative (-) ends of the batteries. Keep

battery contact surfaces clean by gently rubbing with a clean pencil eraser or cloth. Replace batteries with the size and type specified by the device's manufacturer. Remove all used batteries from the device at the same time, then

replace them with new batteries of the same size and type. Store batteries in a cool, dry place at normal room temperature. Remove batteries from devices that will be stored for extended periods. Don't dispose of batteries in a

fire - they may rupture or leak. Don't recharge a battery unless it is specifically marked "rechargeable." Attempting to recharge a normal battery could result in rupture or leakage.

Disposal of Batteries / Accumulators

You are required by law (Battery Ordinance) to return all spent batteries/accumulators. Disposing of spent batteries/accumulators in the household waste is prohibited!

Batteries / accumulators that contain hazardous substances are marked with the symbols on the side. These symbols indicate that it is prohibited to dispose of these batteries in the household waste.

You can return spent batteries respectively accumulators that can no longer charged free of charge to the collection points in your community, our outlets or everywhere else where batteries or accumulators are sold.

You thus fulfil the legal requirements and contribute to the protection of our environment!
