should be pressed to compensate for
any temperature changes in the transducer.

Velocity and Zero Calibration
The material velocity and zero calibration procedures may be combined using a thick
and a thin calibration block of the same material.
1.
Update the transducer zero compensation by wiping the transducer face and
pressing
