6. MEASURING PROCEDURE
1)Power ON the meter by pushing the " Power button "
( 5-2, Fig. 1 ).
2)Select the desired unit ( micro Tesla or mili-Gauss )
by pushing the " Unit button " ( 5-5, Fig. 1 ).
3)Use the " Range button " ( 5-6, Fig. 1 ) to select the
suitable range. For the unknown EMF measurement,
start with the highest range and keep decreasing until
the higher resolution's reading is obtained.
4)Hold the " Probe handle " ( 5-11, Fig. 1 ), move the
" Probe sensing head " ( 5-12, Fig. 1 ) slowly towards
to the object under measurement until it is physically
touched.
5)Use the " XYZ axis select button " ( 5-4, Fig. 1 ) to
select the EMF value in the X, Y or Z axis.
Note :
@Due to the electromagnetic interference of the
environment, the display reading may show
small values before testing, for example less
than 0.05 micro Tesla. This is not malfunction of
the tester.
@If the object under measurement is turned off
during the measurement, the EMF tester
reading should then return to zero, unless a
field from other sources are detected.
6)During the measurement, if push the " Hold button "
( 5-3, Fig. 1 ) will freeze the display value. Push the
" Hold button " again will release the Hold function.
