Some other frequencies with 1W output: 89 kHz, 131 kHz, 200 kHz
Clamp connection: any frequency from 8 kHz up to the highest allowed frequency (depending on
region).
Induction Frequency: this transmitter is a broad-band induction unit. It means that user can select for the
Induction mode any frequency he wants, from 8 kHz up. (highest available frequency depends on region)
NOTE: see section 1.4.2 for frequency activation procedure
As with most manufacturers the clamps and induction antennas are tuned to specific frequencies, and
do not
work over the complete range of frequencies.
Frequencies are selected by pressing the “f” pushbutton which toggles through the available frequencies for
the selection mode. The frequency is automatically selected if you don’t toggle past it within two seconds. The
frequency is shown on the display.
NOTE:
The output current is shown in large characters on the display
– to increase or reduce the power output press
“+” or “-”. The vertical bar graph at the bottom of the display indicates which of the five current output steps is
being used. If the transmitter can supply the requested current, the bar will turn black. If the bar does not turn
black, improving the ground connections or wetting the ground where the earth stake in positioned, may help.
However, it may not be able to achieve the current setting requested because the impedance of the line is too
high for this setting. If this happens it is best to select a setting that has a black bar, this will ensure a stable
output.
The current being transmitted will be limited by the impedance of the cable, therefore it is not unusual to
increase the output level, but see no increase in the current displayed. This is not a fault with the transmitter.
The transmitter will always revert to first level output when switched on
– this is a power saving feature – in
most circumstances this output level is sufficient. Increasing the output power unnecessarily will reduce the
battery life unnecessarily. All other settings remain the same as the last setting used.
1.4.2
Most Used Frequencies (Frequency Selection) Feature
This feature can be used to allow operator to choose his most used frequencies from a list of possible
frequencies. Once these frequencies are selected in the main menu, pressing the "f" pushbutton, user can
scroll through them. At any time user can add or remove frequencies from the above list, following the below
procedure. Maximum frequencies that can be appear in most used frequencies list is 12.
The advantage of this feature is that user can optimize the transmitter and activate at the main menu user’s
preferred frequencies, instead of having a whole list of frequencies that user has to scroll through.
To enter the "Frequency Menu" proceeds as follows:
1.
Press the “i" pushbutton four--six times (based on the mode that transmitter is in), until get to the
"Frequency menu" sub-menu.
In Direct Connection mode,
