Once again, the Auto Set feature built into the
MAX II
will attempt to optimize and
select the polarity for you. Use of this feature is further explained in the sections that
follow.
12.8 Manually Locating the Echo
The echo can be manually located by simply adjusting the delay and width values of
the
MAX II
. While this is process is very tedious and will most often not be used
because of the
Auto Set
feature, it should be explained for general control of the
instrument. The following procedures outline how to locate the echo using delay and
width.
Adjusting the Delay to Locate the Echo
Note:
The delay should be adjusted to a length slightly shorter than the
physical length of the fastener. If the length of the fastener is unknown, the
user will be forced to scroll the delay until the echo is located. However, if the
Length is known, use the digits edit box to enter the value and save time.
1) Press the

MEAS
key multiple times to move down and the

DELAY
cell is highlighted. Alternatively, press the

button wheel to scroll the highlighted value.
