Figure 5 – System Waiting to Receive Data
6. With the IE head powered up and the green light on the top of the handle
illuminated, press the trigger button on the underside of the handle. The unit will fire
the solenoid on the CTG-2 head and create an impact. The displacement transducer
sensor on the CTG-2 head will record the data and the software will display the data
on the screen as shown in Figure 6 below. The program is now waiting for you to
either accept or reject the data as reported in the “Status” field which is currently in
“Accept or Reject” mode.
When placing the CTG-2 on a test surface, place the rear feet
down first then rotate the unit down into position. This will
ensure proper contact between the sensor tip and the test
surface.
i
Gently rotate the sensor tip onto the test surface as a sudden
impact to the sensor might result in damage to the sensing
element.
