(see Section:

Single test

)

F1 (Max):

Turns on or off "Max“ function

F2 (Hold):

Turns on or off "Hold“ function

F3 (Menu):

Switch to menu in order to adjust the

settings of the unit

“LIGHT“:

Controls the display lighting

(Off – Level I – Level II – Level I – Off)

To switch the unit on or off press the ON/OFF button. Depending on the

intended use, connect the appropriate probe or the temperature sensor

to the SONAPHONE E (see Section:

Using the probes

A probe for structure-borne ultrasound is used for locating leaks. The

ultrasonic value is besides the magnitude of the sound source also

dependent on the probe’s direction and distance from the sound source.

This effect can be used to locate and evaluate leaks. If no probe is

plugged into the unit, the message “No Probe” is displayed instead of the

ultrasonic value.
