Gate Mode: Single

Gate Mode: E-E

4.11 Setting the Damping Level

Note: For this model, the parameter is fixed.
This function serves for matching the probe. You can use it to adjust the damping of the probe’s

oscillating circuit and to consequently change the height, width and resolution of the echo display.

1

Activate the PULSER submenu (located in the CAL menu) by pressing the menu key below it.

2

Move the cursor to the selection titled DAMPING.

3

To change the specified damping level and optimize the A-Scan signal appearance, turn the

knob. You’ll note that the following damping levels are available: 100Ω

、

200Ω

、

400Ω.

4

The damping level will be set to the one last displayed.

4.12 Setting the Pulse Energy Level

Use the function ENERGY to set the pulse voltage. The relative energy with which the pulse fires can be

selectable set to

LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH.

The setting MEDIUM is recommended for most inspections. HIGH is used for inspections in which

maximum sensitivity is import, e.g. for the detection of small flaws. Choose the setting LOW for

broadband probes or if narrow echoes are required (better lateral resolution).
To set the pulse energy

1

Activate the PULSER submenu (located in the CAL menu) by pressing the menu key below it.

2

Select the function item titled ENERGY.

3

Select the energy level by turning the knob or continuing to press the

key.

4.13 Setting the Pulse Width

The function is no available in this model.

4.14 Adjusting the Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF)

The pulse repetition frequency indicates the number of times an initial pulse is triggered per second. You

can determine whether you need the highest possible PRF value, or whether you are satisfied with a low

value.
The PRF value ranges from 10 Hz to 1000 KHz. The larger your work piece, the smaller PRF values are

needed in order to avoid phantom echoes. In the case of smaller PRF values, however, the A-Scan

update rate becomes lower, for this reason, high values are required if a work piece should be scanned

fast.
The best way to determine the suitable PRF value is by experimenting: start from the highest step and

reduce the value until there are no more phantom echoes.
To set the PRF level

1

Activate the PULSER submenu (located in the CAL menu) by pressing the menu key below it.

2

Select the function item titled PRF.

3

Change the PRF value by turning the knob.

4.15 Specifying the Probe Frequency

In this function, you can specify the probe frequency according to the frequency of your probe. The

instrument will automatically utilize a built-in filter to match the probe frequency.

1

Activate the PROBE submenu (located in the CAL menu) by pressing the menu key below it.

2

Select the function item titled FREQ.

3

To change the specified frequency, turn the knob.

4

The probe frequency will be set to the last one displayed.

4.16 Specifying the Piezo Crystal Size

Use DIAMETR function to set the Piezo Crystal Size of your probe. This value is required when

programming the AVG.

4.17 Setting the Probe X-Value
