Working with delta markers

All markers can be set to show values according to their position or to display deltas to another marker. The settings can be changed directly from the Button bar or from the Marker Configuration menu.

Setting a delta marker from the Button bar

A delta marker can be defined directly from the Button bar. When set from the Button bar only marker 1 can be the referenced marker. To select another marker as reference, see Setting a marker to delta from the Marker Configuration menu.

To set a marker as delta marker:

1.   In the Button bar select a marker.

The selected marker is displayed above the measurement display.

2.   In the Type field select Delta.

The name of the marker in the marker list is changed from Mx to Dx (e.g. M4 to D4).
The displayed values are the differences to marker 1 (M1D4 in this example).

Setting a delta marker from the marker configuration menu (Marker Conf.)

When setting a marker to the delta type from the marker configuration menu, any other marker can be chosen as reference.

To set a marker as delta marker:

1.   In the Button bar tap the Marker Conf. button.

The Marker Config menu opens.

2.   Tap on the Type field of the desired marker and set it to D (each tap toggles D / M (Delta / Normal).

Marker 1 is set as reference per default.

To select a marker as reference:

The Marker Config menu is displayed.

1.   Tap on the Ref. field of the delta marker you want to select the reference marker for.

A dropdown list opens in the display header.
