paint thickness meters from the smart series
enable the connection to the phone via bluetooth. thanks to the gl-smart application, we get a number of additional functions that are not available with standard paint thickness meters.

gl-smart app
The gl-smart application developed for Android allows you to connect the smart series to a color meter. depending on the meter model, we get a number of new functions that are not available in conventional meters. the app currently runs on android version 6 or higher. after all, it is available from version 5. App updates provided by the manufacturer are free. the advantage of the application is that it is constantly being improved and expanded. gl-smart app can be downloaded from google play store.

possibilities of use after connecting to the gl-smart-8 meter

- basic and extended measurement with recording of measurements;
-*professional measurement by measuring individual body parts + pillars
- 24 photos can be taken for each car;
- generation of reports with measurements and additional information such as brand, registration, vin, notes, etc.;
- export of reports to a pdf file;
-application required obecnie systemu android version 6 and wyzszej;
-app currently requires android system version 6 or higher;
-*app is under continuous development, eventually compatible with version 5; it is constantly updated with new features, updates are always free.

gl-smart is intuitive to use. after launch, the main desktop will appear, allowing you to choose one of the following options:

- basic measurement;
-professional measurement;
- measurement catalog;
- calibration.

attention. after launching the application or after selecting a certain function, the application may ask for permission to access location and camera and multimedia. location permission is required for bluetooth 4 to work, it is a technical requirement of android. we do not collect phone location information.

gl-smart app black be downloaded from google play store.

basic measurement
after selecting this function, a list of detected meters is displayed - select one of them. the application enters measurement mode in the main view. when switching to the "extended view", additional functions appear: a table with a list of measurements, a graph with measurements and the option to save measurements in the measurements directory. to measure, you should also go to the measurement function in the menu of the measuring device. after installing the meter on the car body, the measurement result is displayed on the LCD screen of the meter and in the gl-smart application.

professional measurement
it allows measurement by dividing the body into individual parts. a graphic is displayed where the car is divided into individual fragments. after selecting a fragment, you will this a view like the image on the left. we perform the measurement in the same way as described in the "basic measurement" function.

in the professional mode, it is also possible to save the measurements in the form of a protocol.

catalog of measurements
it contains saved measurements divided into professional (icons with a dark blue border) and basic (icons with a green border). by selecting a given measurement file, we have the option to edit data such as make, engine, model, mileage, measurement performance data, conclusions, etc. in addition, the professional measurement file has the function of exporting the data to a pdf file in the form of a report.

calibration
by selecting this function, it is possible to calibrate the meter. follow the instructions.

measurement assistant® function on the glucometer screen and in the gl-smart application
the function informs the appraiser of the car whether it has undergone body and paint repair.

if the function is enabled, the meter displays messages about the state of the metal plate on the screen:

"lak ok" - the right varnish;
"2xlak" - second layer of varnish;
"set!" - putty.
The gl-smart app uses a solution that consists of changing the colors of the frame along with the measurement:

green – correct varnish;
yellow – second coat of varnish;
*red – putty;
and an additional text message appears below the frame.

it should be noted that the measurement assistant® function is only an aid in the interpretation of measurements, it cannot be the basis for an unequivocal answer to the question of whether the car has undergone bodywork and paint repair. however, many car appraisers don't really know what a given paint thickness means, so the above feature is helpful in that regard.

holding function
this function allows you to measure and stop it so that you can move the meter away from the tested surface and read the measurement.

sound signal
this is especially useful when taking measurements with the hold function activated. after the measurement, the meter informs us of this fact with a short beep.

calibration function
easy calibration,
circuit board included.
the calibration-zero function means that the meter measures correctly under all conditions, even after years of use.
you can calibrate the meter before measuring and be sure that the measurements are correct.
the meter has compensation, thanks to which it calibrates automatically, but accurate calibration is always possible using a calibration plate.

pay attention to the meter without calibration plates - on such meters, the measurement error rabbet increases, because the probe wears (frictions) and also affects the aging of the electronic components. therefore, meters worth several thousand zlotys also come with calibration plates and a calibration function.

the set consists of:
- paint thickness gauge gl-smart-8
-zero plate - calibration
- two AAA alkaline batteries
- eco-leather case
- guidance
