4.1.1b Adjusting the Gate Width (GATE - GATE A WIDTH or GATE B WIDTH)
Adjusting the A-gate width may be necessary in multi-echo modes because the returning sound pulse (backwall echo) may be too low in
amplitude to trigger a measurement reading. Adjusting the B-gate width reduces or increases the width of the B-gate to control which signal
crosses the B-gate and triggers a thickness measurement.
1.
In the
MAIN
menu, scroll to the
GATE
submenu using the joystick (
).
2.
Use the joystick (
) to select the
GATE A WIDTH
(or
GATE B WIDTH
) function.
3.
To change the gate width, move the joystick (
) or press the function toggle.
Note:
The
GATE A WIDTH
and
GATE B WIDTH
functions have both coarse and fine adjustment modes. Coarse adjustments (of 1,5 or 10 in)
are made with the function toggle, while fine adjustments (of 0.001 in) are made with the joystick. When the function name appears
in all capital letters, coarse adjustments are being made, while fine adjustments occur when the function name appears in all
lower-case letters.
4.
After completing your selection, move the joystick up or down (
) to navigate away from this function, or press
HOME
to
return to the Main Menu.
