.
6.3.2. Orientation
The Magmeter-2 can be orientated horizontally or vertically.
6.3.3. Temperature
To minimise temperature induced drift effects, position the Magmeter-2:
•
in a constant ambient temperature
•
out of direct sunlight.
6.3.4. Proximity to Other Equipment
The Magmeter-2 contains no high frequency electronics likely to cause emissions which could
create interference with other equipment. The unit is unlikely to be affected by interference from
other equipment in the normal operating environment.
Note
: The Magmeter-2 is built with ferromagnetic materials and should therefore be kept
at least 1 metre away from any magnetometers.
Caution:
The Magmeter-2 should not be located in an environment with high radio
frequency noise as this would interfere with BNC connection to a DVM or Acquisition unit.
6.4. Connecting the Equipment
Caution:
Do not connect or break the connection between the magnetometer and the
Magmeter-2 with the Magmeter-2 switched on, as this could cause damage to the
magnetometer.
Connect the equipment in the following sequence:
1. Ensure the ON/OFF switch (item 10 above) is OFF (position “0”).
2. Connect the magnetometer to the Magmeter-2 magnetometer socket. Ensure the connector
pins are correctly aligned with those in the socket. The locking ring should be hand-tightened
only.
3. Connect BNC outputs to your external equipment, as required.
