Introduction
The osiTector 6000 hand-held, electronic instrument
non-destructively measures the thickness of coatings on
metals, quickly and accurately. It consists of a body
(Standard or Advanced) and probe.
This Quick Guide summarizes the basic functions of the gage.

The osiTector 6000 powers-up when the center navigation
button is pressed. To preserve battery life, the instrument
powers down after approximately 5 minutes of no activity. All
settings are retained.

Calibration, Verification, and Adjustment
The osiTector 6000 non-destructively measures the thickness
of coatings on metals.Three steps ensure best accuracy…
1. Calibration: typically performed by the manufacturer.
All probes include a Certificate of Calibration.
2. Verification of Accuracy: typically performed by the user on
known reference standards such as the included plastic shims
or optional coated thickness standards.
3. Adjustment: Adjustment, or Cal Adjustment is the act of
aligning the Gage’s thickness readings to match that of a
known sample in order to improve the effectiveness of the Gage
on a specific surface or in a specific portion of its measurement
range. 1-point or 2-point Cal adjustments are possible.
When powered-up, the osiTector automatically determines
which probe is attached and does a self-check.
To disconnect a probe from a body, slide the plastic
probe connector horizontally (in the direction of the
arrow) away from the body. Reverse these steps to
attach a different probe. It is not necessary to power-
down the Gage when switching probes.
The osiTector gage body accepts a wide variety of
probe types including magnetic, eddy-current and
ultrasonic coating thickness, surface profile, environmental,
hardness, salt contamination and ultrasonic wall thickness probes.
Probes are factory calibrated and perform an automatic self-
check each time a measurement is taken. For many applications
no further adjustment is necessary after a Reset (pg. 4).
ust check ZERO on the uncoated substrate, then measure.
However, sometimes readings can be influenced by changes in
substrate shape, composition, surface roughness or by measuring
in a different location on the part. That is why Cal adjustments are
made possible.The symbol disappears whenever a Cal
adjustment is made to the Gage.

Where a Cal adjustment method has not been specified, use
a 1-point method first. If measuring the included shims on your
surface reveals inaccuracies, use the 2-point method. Factory
Cal settings can be restored at any time by performing a Reset
(pg. 4), creating a NEW Cal setting (See Cal Memory, pg. 4),
or by DELETING the adjustments made to the Cal 1 calibration
setting (pg. 4). The symbol appears on the display
whenever factory Cal settings are in use.
With “FN” Gages, calibration adjustments are made only to
the “F” or “N” mode (stored independently under a particular Cal),
whichever was measured last.
Cal Settings Menu
1- t Cal Adjustment- Also known as an offset
or correction value, there are 4 ways to perform this:
(i) Simple Zero Adjustment- Measure your uncoated part. Lift
the probe and adjust to "0" using the (+)and (
-
)buttons.
(ii) Average Zero Adjustment A preferred method
to (i) is to average 3 to 10 measurements on the uncoated part.
(iii)
Simple Adjustment to a Known Thickness-
Measure a shim
of known thickness placed on the uncoated part. Lift the probe
and adjust to the shim thickness using the (+)and (
-
)buttons.
(iv)
Average Adjustment to a Known Thickness
A preferred method to (iii) is to average 3 to 10 measurements
of a shim of known thickness placed on the uncoated part using
the (+)and (
-
)buttons.
1 t Adjust
Zero
2 t Adjust
Provides greater accuracy within a limited, defined range.
Measure a thin value (often zero) and a thicker value.
These values should bracket your expected thickness range.
When checked, the icon appears and all Cal settings
are “locked” to prevent further user adjustments.

The icon appears and the probe will only use the eddy
current principle to shorten measurement time and extend
battery life. Useful when measuring coatings over plated steel.
The current cal setting (ex. Cal 3) displays in the upper right
corner of the LCD. A stored cal setting can be restored when
you return to a particular part. Cal 1 can be adjusted but never
deleted, and is always made active with factory settings after a
Reset (pg. 4). A new cal setting cannot be created if a batch is
open with readings.

Hi Res
Increases measurement speed. Useful for quick inspection or
when measuring large areas with thick coatings where proper
probe positioning is not critical. Swift up/down probe movement is
required. Reduced accuracy may be noted.
By default, the PosiTector 6000 takes approximately 1 reading
per second. Scan mode allows the user to take multiple readings
in rapid succession (3 readings per second) without lifting the
probe. Choose from 3 Scan modes:
•Normal - continuously measures when placed on the surface
•Statistics - displays real-time scan statistics when placed on the
surface. Average, max., min., and standard deviation are displayed.
•Limited # Avg. - continuously measures until user-specified number
of readings is reached, then displays the average for the scan.
When Memory is on (pg.6), Scan measurement data is
recorded. However, in Statistics and Limited # Avg. Scan
modes, only the statistics and/or avergage is saved, not
individual readings. Note that performing a scan may reduce the
life of the probe and is recommended for smooth surfaces only.

Advanced models store 100,000 readings in up to 1,000
batches. “New Batch” closes any currently opened batch and
creates a new batch name using the lowest available number.
New batch names are date-stamped when they are created.
The osiTector 6000 has internal memory storage for recording
measurement data. Stored measurements can be reviewed on-
screen or accessed via computers, tablets and smart phones. All
stored measurements are date and time-stamped. The symbol
appears when the Gage is set to store measurement data.
Standard models store up to 250 readings in one batch.
