3.1. PRODUCT PRESENTATION
The M1 and M3 display units allow making dimensional control using 1 or 2 air gages.
Depending on the version it is possible to make simple measurement (with one air
gage), or display 2 characteristics on the screen and can make static measurement or
dynamic (Max, Min, Max-Min…)
The M1-M3 can be connected to a PC thanks to its RS232 or USB connection.
