Probe Type  

 

BASIC CONFIGURATION

 

 
• Read out actual probe type status, by clicking on I24. 
 

Field G24 indicates the actual probe type status. 

 0= coaxial probe 

 1= single probe rod or rope 

Thresholds are adapted automatically by changing this parameter. 

 
• Change actual probe type in field G23 and click on I23 “set probe type”.  
 

 
 
 
 
 
 

Verify changes by clicking again on I24 “get probe type”
