Noise Average
Displays the average ambient noise (in
dB above 1 μV rms) of a noise profile. Noise level is
a combination of transient noise and receiving circuitry. After a measurement, the values
from the previous noise shot will be displayed.
TVT (time varying threshold)
A time-varying curve that determines the threshold level above which echoes are determined
to be valid.
Modify the TVT to screen out false echoes [see Time Varying Threshold (TVT) (Page 234), and
Auto False Echo Suppression (2.5.10.1.)
].
Navigate to
Configure/Setup > LTB > Setup > Signal Processing
and click on
TVT
. Click on
one of the two tabs to access the parameters listed:

Auto False Echo Suppression
1.
Determine Auto False Echo Suppression Range. Measure the actual distance from the sensor
reference point to the material surface using a rope or tape measure.
2.
Subtract 0.5 m (20") from this distance, and use the resulting value.
3.
Open the menu
Configure/Setup > LTB > Setup > Signal Processing > TVT
and set Auto
False Echo Suppression Range.
4.
From the same menu, set Auto False Echo Suppression to learn. The device will
automatically revert to On (Use Learned TVT) after a few seconds.
