This error message indicates
that the meter missed a depth
reading. This can be caused
by a momentary, but rapid,
insertion of the probe into the
soil or by an object such as a foot or a knee suddenly com-
ing into the field of view of the sonic depth sensor. You
have the option of saving this profile anyway by pressing
the
Review button. This will bring up the Reading Com-
plete screen (see p. 9). When reviewing the profile, you’ll
see a Profile Information Screen with an error message on
the lower line. Data records
saved after a depth error was
detected will have cone in-
dexes of 0 PSI at all missed
depths
