Reference measurement
The last part of the measurement run gives the reference signal
of the environment. This signal is subtracted from the curve. In
this manner, materials with a homogenous distributed metallic
content can also be measured (e.g. blast furnace slag). Signal
peaks in the reference signal indicates additional metal in the
ground which may cause wrong results
The measurement path depends on selected reflector:
≈ 1 m for small reflectors AL RO 07, AL RO 12, ST RO 12 and
AL QU 16.5
≈ 1.5 m for larger reflectors AL RO 30, ST RO 30, AL RE 30x50,
AL RE 30x60, AL RE 30x70, AL RE 30x100, AL QU 33 and
automatic circular plate recognition
Measurement stops immediately when the complete traversed distance
of the path has been covered.
The measurement is aborted, when the probe is moved backwards.
