Displaying the Thickness Measurements
The Gauge transmits thickness measurement data to the surface
as serial data. To display the thickness value and provide a means
of calibration, two options are provided:
1.
Using a Cygnus Top-Side Repeater (TSR) unit
2.
Using a computer with CygLink software
It is also possible for a third party application to read the serial
data and process the thickness measurement data. For more
information on the Serial Data Format, to enable use of your own
software, see page 53.
Data Logging
The CygLink software also provides the facility to Data Log the
thickness measurements as they are taken and to generate a
report document for the survey.
Video Overlay
The optional TSR unit has a Video Overlay or On-Screen Display
facility where the thickness measurements can be superimposed
on to a video signal feed before the monitor and/or video recorder.
The video overlay will work with PAL or NTSC video signals.
