FAQs
How do I calibrate the LS220?
Place the standard foil on the Fe plate and press the CAL key—automatic zeroing completes in 3 seconds.
Does it measure aluminum body panels?
Yes. The dual-technology probe switches to Eddy-Current mode for non-ferrous substrates (aluminum, copper, etc.).
Difference vs. LS220B?
LS220B adds Bluetooth + mobile APP logging. Measurement accuracy is identical.
