-  Soil  Type,  is  defining  which  ground  velocity  should  be 

used when converting reflections from a specific time to 
a  depth  to  be  shown  on  the  scales.  Note  that  this  type 
of  instrument  actually  measures  time  of  flight  for 
electromagnetic waves, in ground. The depth displayed 
on  the  scales  is  estimations  only.  Variations  in  normal 
ground are between 80 to 120 meters/microseconds.  A 
user must be aware of this fact. 

 
 
The  System  Parameters  sub-menu  is  not  accessible  for 
operators;  it  is  used  for  factory  calibrations,  service  centers 
during manufacturing and service/repair 
 
The other sub-menus are self-explanatory. Contact your local 
dealer if further information is needed.
