Tutorial How to Check an I.D. Diameter with the Micro-Hite (Automatic Check) Step 1. Place probe into the radius of the diameter to be checked. Step 2. Lock the knob to the right on the fine adjustment. Step 3. Turn knurled knob until you see two orange lights and a green light in the column of the Micro-Hite. Center the green light between the two orange lights using the knurled knob. Step 4. Sweep the Micro-Hite probe across the radius of the bore until the Micro-Hite beeps. Unlock the fine adjustment assembly and move the probe up to the top radius of the bore. Lock the fine adjustment assembly and sweep the probe across the radius of the bore until the Micro-Hite beeps. Step 5. Unlock the fine adjustment assembly. The Micro-Hite will display the centerline of the dimension. The diameter will be displayed below the centerline. For OD Diameter: After Step 3. Press the gray button on top of the fine adjustment assembly one time (once) to tell the Micro-Hite that you are going to do an O.D. diameter. Then proceed with the same steps as above. © 2001 Brown & Sharpe Mfg. Co. All Rights Reserved. 21 Tutorial How to Check an I.D. Diameter with the Micro-Hite (Manual Check) Step 1. Lock knob to the right on fine adjustment. Step 2. Turn knurled knob until you see two orange lights and a green light in the column of the Micro-Hite. Center the green light between the two orange lights using the knurled knob. Step 3. Set the Micro-Hite for either I.D. or O.D. Do this by pressing the gray button on top of the fine adjustment twice for I.D. or three times for O.D. Step 4. You will now see two green lights in the Micro-Hite column. Sweep the diameter back and forth until the two green lights amplify to 8 green lights. Step 5. Sweep the diameter again until you get the least amount of green lights as possible. Step 6. Unlock knob and take a bottom and a top hit on the diameter with the probe. The location of the bore to the datum is now displayed. Step 7. Press the diameter key – This will display your diameter. NOTE: After initial reference is set, all subsequent readings will show diameter in bottom window of split screen display. 22 © 2001 Brown & Sharpe Mfg. Co. All Rights Reserved.
