Product Name
Notice that, in our example, the auto-calibration function has learned the following basic
parameters for our uncontaminated product (in our example, jars of spaghetti sauce).
• Detect level
= 53
• Phase angle
= 2.24
What the Main Menu Screen Is Telling You
The Main Menu screen is now telling you that, once the detector is monitoring your
product stream, any unit of contaminated product that exceeds the detect level of 53,
will be rejected. And, because the phase angle is 2.24 degrees, the detector is
monitoring a wet product (in our example, jars of spaghetti sauce).
