CHAPTER TWO
QUICK START GUIDE
This section will cover a basic quick start guide to initially get up and running with the
DFX-7
for demonstration purposes only. However, in order to use the gauge and
features for actual applications, a thorough review of this manual is recommended.
2.1 Gauge Type
Power up the
DFX-7
, by pressing the on/off key located in the bottom right corner of
the keypad. During initial boot up, a flash screen and lights will be displayed,
followed by a
GAUGE TYPE
selection screen. Since this manual will focus on the
flaw detector portion of the
DFX-7
, use the
UP/DOWN
arrow keys to select “flaw
detector”, followed by pressing the
OK
key start the
DFX-7
in flaw mode. If this is the
first time the gauge has been used, a general startup configuration will automatically
be loaded and the
DFX-7
is ready for general inspections. If this is not the first time
the gauge has been used, and the user would like to reload the basic default setup
parameters, refer to section 12.5 for further info.
Note:
The default setup should only be considered as a basic setup. Proper
calibration and parameter settings should be done prior to an actual inspection.
