Aligning the internal sensor
E-field sensor
The sensor for
electric fields
only measures in
one dimension.
You can achieve optimal results by making sure
that the field goes through the sides of the devi-
ce (Y axis), see picture.
The sensor is located in the upper left corner of
the device (right below the AUDIO STATUS dis-
play).
H-field sensor (alternating magnetic fields)
The sensor for
alternating magnetic fields
can
measure in 3 dimensions (isotropically). Thus,
you will always get an accurate measurement
independantly on how you align the device.
When measuring the X axis only, the magnetic
field needs to be aligned that it goes through the
front of the unit. Likewise, it needs to go through
the sides for Y axis measurements, or through
the top/bottom for Z axis measurements (see
picture).
The sensor is located at the center of the devi-
ce (below the INFO display).
M-field sensor (static magnetic fields e. g. magnets, geomagnetic field)
The sensor for
static magnetic fields
can mea-
sure in 3 dimensions (isotropically). Thus, you
will always get an accurate measurement no
matter how you align the device.
When measuring the X axis, the magnetic field
needs to be aligned such that it goes through
the front of the unit. Likewise, it needs to go
through the sides for Y axis measurements, or
through the top/bottom for Z axis measure-
ments (see picture). The sensor is located in the
upper left corner next to the SMA input (below
the nameplate).
