Setting the Parameters for a Symmetrical Scan
For pipe elbow inspections, Olympus recommends the symmetrical scan pattern for a
full 360° inspection around the circumference (see Figure 2-2 on page 25). The
OmniScan instrument must be correctly set up to enable this type of inspection. For
details about alternative inspection patterns for straight pipe surfaces, see “Setting Up
to Inspect a Straight Pipe — Unidirectional or Bidirectional Scan” on page 75.
