Basically, the dialog box contains three elements.
●
A list of available transducer factors or transducer sets.
The list shows the name of the transducer factor or set, its unit and its state.
●
A button to filter the transducer factors that are displayed in the list.
The filter is available for transducer
factor selection.
●
A line that shows the comment of a transducer factor or set.
A comment is displayed only if one has been defined.
For more information on using transducer factors and sets, see Chapter 5.2.6, "Trans-
ducers" , on page 174.
For more information on designing transducer factors and sets, see:
●
"Defining characteristics of a transducer factor" on page 508
●
"Managing transducer sets" on page 510
Using transducer factors or transducer sets ← Transducer
The "(Factor Set)" softkey selects if you want to use a transducer factor or set.
The label of the currently selected type of transducer is highlighted.
To actually include the transducer in the measurement, you first have to select one and
turn it on with the "Active (On Off)" softkey. When the transducer factor is active, all
amplitude settings and outputs take on the unit of the transducer factor. You can no
longer select another unit. An exception is in case the transducer has the unit
dB.
The name of the active transducer is displayed in the channel bar. To indicate the pro-
gress of the measurement, the diagram area also contains a green vertical line with the
label "TF".
Note that you can turn on up to eight transducer factors at the same time. If you want
to use more transducer factors in the same measurement, you have to combine them
in a transducer set.

Defining characteristics of a transducer factor ← Transducer
Before you can define the characteristics of a transducer factor, make sure that you are
actually using a transducer factor (
➙
"(Factor Set)" softkey).
