mode:

 This interface allows you to see the present thickness value and the A‐scan waveform at 

the same time. The right side of the interface is the specification adjusting area, which can be adjusted 
for a more precise result. The detailed introduction can be seen in chapter 3.5. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

3.7 A‐SCAN MODE INTERFACE 

 

1—waveform  display  area      2—gate      3—material  velocity      4—the  present  highlighted 
specification      5—measuring point( the first point of intersection between the waveform and the gate)     
6—the present thickness value      7—the blank confines 
8—the range confines      9—the specification adjusting area      10—highlighted signal       
11—digit mode    12—specification switch        13—battery power 

 

ATTENTION:

  When  the  probe  and  the  object  are  not  completely  coupled,  the  letters  in  the  various 

interfaces are shown in 

GREEN,

 when properly coupled, they are displayed in 

WHITE 

color and when 

the either the upper or lower limits are exceeded, the letters are displayed in 

RED

 color.

SCAN

 

INTERFACE

   

In the A‐scan interface, press the bottom right button NEXT              to highlight the value to be adjusted. 
Then press the direction keys to adjust the values. Up and down keys are used for small increments, 
while left and right for larger increments.   

GAIN

—adjust the sensitivity of the gage with unit dB. The larger the gain is, the higher the sensitivity is. 

The gain ranges from 8 to 55dB. 

RANGE

—adjust the testing range that the screen displays. The range is 0.393” to 5.70” (10~145mm). 

DELAY

—shown  at  the  beginning  point  of  the  screen.  The  waveform  will  move  horizontally  when 

adjusting this value.
