Calibrating to a Known Thickness using CygLink
The CygLink display can be calibrated to a known thickness by
using the Gauge to measure a sample of the material that will be
measured. This method ensures the velocity of sound is set for the
actual material being measured rather than using a “generic”
value.
1.
Place and hold the Gauge’s ultrasonic probe on the material
sample using, couplant if out of the water
You should have a stable thickness measurement on the
display
2.
Click
Gauge
->
Calibrate
. With the probe still held on the
material sample.
Calibration Menu
3.
Select the value in the Thickness box and enter the known
thickness of the sample being measured
Press the
OK
to save and exit
4.
Repeat from step 1 to check the calibration is stable.
CygLink Surveys and Data Logging
CygLink has the facility to store logged thickness measurements in
a single Survey file. These measurements are organised into
Survey Groups, each Survey Group can contain any number of
thickness measurements. The whole Survey can be saved to a
single file which can be emailed, or it can be turned into a PDF
paper report and also emailed or printed out.
