identified here. You’ll learn much more about the content of
each type of display later in this chapter.
In addition to these most-often used modes, a fourth mode
also exists: the
File Creation mode. This special mode, which is
used to create new data files that will hold measurement data,
will be described in detail in Section 3.4.3.
2.2
Menu System
The DMS 2 is designed to allow the user maximum flexibility
when configuring the instrument’s measurement and data-
recording features. To do this, the instrument relies on a menu
system that lets the user “page” through options, selecting and
modifying those that require modification, while relying on
default settings for others.
In each of the three modes described above (TG, Test, and
DR), the DMS 2 menu system allows the operator to select
and adjust various features and instrument settings. The menu
system includes four major menus, a File Creation Menu, and
other menus that perform the following general functions:
TG Primary Menu—Used to identify probe types, set thick-
ness alarms, specify measurement mode, control the A-scan
and B-scan displays, and control other significant measurement
features
TG Secondary Menu—Used to specify features that are
adjusted less often, including screen appearance, language
options, and printer/computer communications
Test Menu—Gives the operator access to those functions that
are most often required during the thickness measurement
process
DR Menu—Includes options that allows the operator to adjust
the way measurement data is stored and organized, and
features that ease the statistical evaluation of measurement
data
File Creation Menu—Allows the operator to create, name,
and format new data files
Master and Active Comment Lists—Allow the operator to
attach comments to specific data points
Virtual Keyboard—Used to create File names, comments,
Labels, and other alphanumeric inputs
Most of the features of the DMS 2 can be accessed through
one of these menus. The manual you are reading explains how
to perform each of the tasks the DMS 2 is capable of. This
manual section offers a quick way to locate a specific operation
within the menu structure.
