Measuring the BITE noise with the transducer disconnected
from the Transceiver Unit
Low noise is a key factor for high quality and reliable measurements. The performance
of the SC90 will always be limited by different noise sources. A high noise level will
mask the echoes and make them difficult to read and interpret. The noise is measured
while the SC90 operates in
Passive mode with the transducer disconnected.
Prerequisites
The SC90 is installed as specified in this manual. All cables - except the transducer cable
- are properly connected. Neither tools nor instruments are required.
Context
This task allows you to check the noise conditions. To measure the noise level, observe
the value presented on the
B-Scan
page in the
BITE
(Built In Test Equipment) dialog box.
Note
This task must be done with the transducer cable disconnected from the Transceiver Unit.
